Serum Lp-PLA2: as a novel viewpoint in periodontal treatment of hyperlipidaemics

Background/aim: To evaluate the effects of periodontal treatment on serum lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in hyperlipidaemic patients with periodontitis

Evaluation of Lipid Peroxidation and Oxidative DNA Damage in Patients With Periodontitis and Hyperlipidemia

Background: The purpose of this study is to determine the serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), as a lipid peroxidation marker, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), as an oxidative DNA damage marker, in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and hyperlipidemia
