Periodontal disease and inflammatory blood cytokines in patients with stable coronary artery disease
Periodontal disease has been associated with elevations of blood cytokines involved in atherosclerosis in systemically healthy individuals, but little is known about this association in stable cardiovascular patients. The aim of this study was to assess the association between periodontal disease (exposure) and blood cytokine levels (outcomes) in a target population of patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Material and Methods This cross-sectional study included 91 patients with stable CAD who had been under optimized cardiovascular care. Blood levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-γ, and TNF-α were measured by Luminex technology. A full-mouth periodontal examination was conducted to record probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment (CA) loss. Multiple linear regression models, adjusting for gender, body mass index, oral hypoglycemic drugs, smoking, and occurre:nce of acute myocardial infarction were applied. Results CAD patients that experienced major events had higher concentrations of IFN-γ (median: 5.05 pg/mL vs. 3.01 pg/mL; p=0.01), IL-10 (median: 2.33 pg/mL vs. 1.01 pg/mL; p=0.03), and TNF-α (median: 9.17 pg/mL vs. 7.47 pg/mL; p=0.02). Higher numbers of teeth with at least 6 mm of CA loss (R2=0.07) and PD (R2=0.06) were significantly associated with higher IFN-γ log concentrations. Mean CA loss (R2=0.05) and PD (R2=0.06) were significantly related to IL-10 concentrations. Elevated concentrations of TNF-α were associated with higher mean CA loss (R2=0.07). Conclusion Periodontal disease is associated with increased systemic inflammation in stable cardiovascular patients. These findings provide additional evidence supporting the idea that periodontal disease can be a prognostic factor in cardiovascular patients

Condição periodontal como fator de prognóstico em pacientes com doença arterial coronariana crônica : ênfase em citocinas sistêmicas
A doença periodontal é um processo inflamatório crônico local em resposta ao acúmulo de biofilme bacteriano; porém, nas últimas décadas tem-se observado uma atenção maior aos efeitos sistêmicos da mesma. Estes efeitos sistêmicos podem acarretar em um aumento no risco à doença cardiovascular. As citocinas, as quais são produzidas pela resposta imunológica do hospedeiro, podem ser importantes marcadores da doença periodontal e das doenças cardiovasculares. Este estudo objetivou avaliar a associação entre condição periodontal e citocinas sanguíneas em pacientes com doença arterial coronariana crônica. Foi realizado um estudo observacional transversal no qual foram incluídos 89 pacientes com doença arterial coronariana que estavam sob cuidados cardiovasculares por no mínimo 6 meses. Amostras sanguíneas foram coletadas para mensuração dos níveis sistêmicos das citocinas IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-γ e TNF-α através da plataforma Multiplex. Foram realizados exames periodontais (seis sítios por dente em toda a boca) para registro da profundidade de sondagem (PS) e perda de inserção (PI). Modelos de regressão linear múltipla ajustado para gênero, índice de massa corporal e fumo foram usados para associação entre diversos parâmetros clínicos periodontais e níveis sistêmicos das citocinas individualmente. Observamos associação entre PS e PI com IFN-γ, TNF-α e IL-10. Número de dentes com PI e PS ≥6mm foram significativamente associados com maiores concentrações de IFN-γ. Média de PI e PS foram significativamente relacionadas com IL-10. Concentrações mais elevadas de TNF-α foram associadas com a média de PI. Pode-se concluir que pior condição periodontal é associada com maiores níveis de inflamação sistêmica em pacientes cardiopatas. Estes achados provém adicional evidência para suportar a doença periodontal como um provável fator de prognóstico em pacientes cardiopatas crônicos.Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease resulting from dental biofilm deposition. However, in recent decades it has been observed an increased attention to the systemic effects of periodontal inflammation and destruction. This systemic effect could be associated to increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. Cytokines, which are produced by the host response, could be important predictors in periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to assess the association between periodontal disease and low-grade inflammatory blood markers in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. 89 patients under cardiovascular care for at least 6 months were included in this cross-sectional study. Blood levels of cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-y and TNF-α were measured using the Multiplex technology. A full-mouth six sites per tooth periodontal examination was conducted to record probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CA loss). Multiple linear regression models adjusting for gender, body mass index and smoking were used to study the association between periodontal status and log levels of cytokines. Significant associations between periodontal parameters and IFN-γ, IL-10 and TNFα were observed. Higher numbers of teeth with CA loss and PD ≥6 mm were significantly associated with higher concentrations of IFN-γ. Mean CA loss and PD were significantly related to IL-10. Elevated concentrations of TNF-α were associated with higher mean CA loss. It can be concluded that periodontal disease is associated with increased systemic inflammation in cardiovascular patients. These findings provide additional evidence for supporting periodontal disease as a prognostic factor in cardiovascular patients
