Periodontitis and bone metabolism in patients with advanced heart failure and after heart transplantation

Abstract: Aims Heart failure (HF) is a multiorgan, pro-inflammatory syndrome that impairs bone metabolism. Pro-inflammatory cytokines and bone catabolism enhance periodontal disease, a local inflammatory, bacteria-induced disease that causes bone loss and periodontal soft tissue destruction. Methods and resultsMedical and dental examinations were performed on patients with HF (n = 39), following heart transplantation (post-HTx, n = 38) and controls (n = 32). Blood, saliva, and gingival crevicular fluid were analysed for… Show more

“…However, the observed differences were attenuated to non-significance after adjustment for markers of oral hygiene, race and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels [29]. Overall, data on the role of PD in the pathophysiology of heart failure is largely lacking but the results from our present study and other studies are interesting from a hypothesis generating perspective and should be explored further.…”

“…All biomarkers were analyzed on a log-transformed scale using linear models. Geometric mean ratios are presented with 95% confidence intervals (CI) with the lowest tooth loss level (26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32) replacing significant renal dysfunction) [16], hemoglobin, white blood cells, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides. Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios for MACE, CV death and stroke in relation to tooth loss levels, adjusting for biomarkers in addition to a previously reported multivariable model [4], co-variables of which are also listed in Table 3.…”

“…In the next step, we addressed the link between periodontitis, cardiac injury and generalized inflammation suggested by various studies, e.g. [ 24 ]. For that purpose, we measured the serum-levels of cardiac (proBNP, TpI) and inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6) and compared these values between healthy individuals and periodontitis patients in pre-therapy samples.…”

“…Periodontal disease (PD) is associated with adverse wound healing in response to injury across organ systems, including poor cardiac responses to myocardial infarction (MI) (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6). MI incidence correlates with the number of pockets > 4 mm deep, bleeding sites after probing, and severity of tooth loss, even after adjustment for known cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., smoking, diabetes, or hypertension) (4).…”

“…MI incidence correlates with the number of pockets > 4 mm deep, bleeding sites after probing, and severity of tooth loss, even after adjustment for known cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., smoking, diabetes, or hypertension) (4). Antibodies against the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis are also elevated in MI patients (4), and heart-failure patients exhibit increased bone turnover markers in circulation and a more advanced PD phenotype compared with healthy control patients (6). In addition, severe periodontitis is more prevalent among post-MI heart-failure patients than dilated cardiomyopathy-induced heart-failure patients (5).…”
