Prevalence and Risk Factors for Periodontitis Among Patients with Metabolic Syndrome.
Metabolic Syndrome and related Disorders 2018 September
BACKGROUND: The incidence of periodontitis is higher when metabolic syndrome (MS) is present. However, only few Korean studies have compared the risk factors for MS and periodontitis. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors for periodontitis relative to the presence of MS.
METHODS: The data collected from 13,196 respondents of the 2010-2015 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in South Korea, which include periodontitis and MS parameters, were analyzed after propensity score matching of sex and age.
RESULTS: A total of 29% of the participants had periodontitis. The periodontitis group had more males (53%), lower number of participants who had a high educational level (66.6%), and higher body mass index (24.3 ± 3.2) and waist circumference (83.8 ± 9.2) than the nonperiodontitis group. Moreover, the periodontitis group exhibited higher systolic blood pressure and fasting plasma glucose and plasma triglyceride levels, but lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels than the nonperiodontitis group (P < 0.001). Several patients in the periodontitis group had hypertension (43.3%) and diabetes mellitus (17.3%), but only few had chronic kidney disease (3.4%). Multiple regression analysis showed that the risk of periodontitis increased when MS, diabetes mellitus, and smoking history were present. Particularly, the risk of periodontitis increased as the number of MS components increased (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with MS had 1.12-fold higher risk of periodontitis than those without. Additionally, patients who had diabetes mellitus and were smokers had a particularly high risk of periodontitis. The risk of periodontitis increased as the number of MS components increased.
