Comparison of the frequency of periodontal pathogenic species of diabetics and non‐diabetics and its relation to periodontitis severity, glycemic control and body mass index

Abstract: Objectives: To investigate common pathogenic bacteria of periodontal diseases (PD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its relationship with PD severity, glycemic control and body mass index (BMI).Material and Methods: This case-control study consisted of 55 patients with T2DM and 55 individuals as control. Samples were collected from periodontal pockets. After DNA extraction, using 16srRNA-specific primers, the presence of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonas gingivalis (… Show more

“…Interestingly, having a BMI lower than 30 kg/m 2 was associated with greater Pg abundance, possibly indicating a major contribution of related chronic inflammation to ASCVD, while such pro-inflammatory patterns in subjects with obesity may derive from a more complex scenario that may also include the role of dysfunctional adipose tissue and the related adipokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines [ 31 , 32 ]. In the whole study cohort, BMI, another established ASCVD risk factor, was correlated positively with Pg abundance, in agreement with previous reports [ 33 , 34 ], and it was correlated negatively with Fn abundance.…”

“…The detection of A. actinomycetemcomitans in whole analyzed samples is in accordance with previous studies reporting a high presence of this microorganism in subjects with both PD and T1D or T2D [ 45 , 46 , 47 ]. Evidence clearly underlines its etiological role in localized aggressive juvenile PD [ 48 ].…”
