About this study

CHD patients or non-CHD with or without periodontitis were included. They were provided with non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Periodontal parameters and cardiovascular risk markers were measured at baseline and 3 months and 6 months after NSPT.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • non-CHD or CHD (at least 50% diameter stenosis in at least one coronary artery and clinically stable with absence of any potentially confounding inflammatory conditions for at least 6 months)
  • had at least 14 natural teeth excluding third molars

Exclusion criteria

  • received anticoagulant drugs
  • had chronic conditions (e.g. diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, malignancy, autoimmune disease) or acute conditions (e.g. trauma, surgery) or medications known to affect systemic inflammatory markers (e.g. antibiotics, immunosuppressive, contraceptives) within 3 months
  • pregnancy or lactation
  • presence or history of other infections
  • periodontal treatment within 6 months
  • tooth extractions within 2 months prior to the study.
