TI  - Clinical indicators of periodontal disease in patients with coronary heart 
      disease: a 10 years longitudinal study.
PG  - e569-74
AB  - OBJECTIVES: There is evidence about a possible relationship existing between 
      periodontal diseases and coronary heart disease. The aim of the present 
      longitudinal study was to investigate the changes in periodontal evolution after 
      etiological periodontal treatment, comparing a healthy control group with another 
      having coronary heart disease. STUDY DESIGN: The study included initially 55 
      patients of which 44 finished it. They were placed into two groups: Healthy 
      Control Group (HCG) n =9, and Coronary Heart Disease Group (CHDG) n=35. The 
      gingival level (GL), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), plaque 
      index (PI) and bleeding on probing (BOP) were measured to compare the periodontal 
      status in both groups. The patients were examined and etiological periodontal 
      treatment was performed and they were then examined at the end of 1 and 10 years. 
      STATISTICAL METHOD: A one way-ANOVA and a MR-ANOVA were established; significance 
      p<0.05. RESULTS: No significant differences between both groups were detected on 
      the first visit (p>0.5). However, at the second visit the CHDG presented a 
      significantly higher PD (p<0.05) and PI (p<0.01). CHDG patients gradually 
      increase PD through time and in comparison to the control group (p<0.041). CHDG 
      patients present a significantly higher CAL loss (p<0.0385) and a significant 
      increase in PI (p<0.0041) at the end of one year, while on the third visit no 
      significant differences were detected in any of these indices. Likewise, a 
      similar fact can be observed on evaluating BOP at the end of ten years causal 
      treatment, a smaller decrease in the cardiac group was observed in regards to the 
      initial values (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Patients with coronary heart disease showed 
      a worse evolution of periodontal indices than healthy ones, when referring to 
      probing depth, plaque index and bleeding on probing index.
