Relación del estado periodontal con la enfermedad del síndrome metabólico. Esmeraldas-2024.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic syndrome is the combination of hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and obesity. Periodontal disease affects the supporting tissues of the tooth, gingiva, cementum, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, its etiological factor is originated by bacterial biofilm. OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship between periodontal status and metabolic syndrome disease in Esmeraldas 2024. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional observational study was carried out. The study included 22 samples of patients with MS attending the Delfina Torres de Concha Hospital in the Endocrinology and Nutrition area. A blood sample was taken to evaluate IL6 in each patient. RESULTS: Periodontal status 4 was the most frequent, representing 59.1% of the cases (13 patients). Overweight patients had the highest proportion of advanced periodontitis (31.8%). Elevated IL-6 levels (> 7 pg/ml) show an exclusive prevalence of advanced periodontitis (periodontal stage 4), with 40.9%. This finding, supported by a p value of 0.006, provides evidence that elevated IL-6 levels are significantly associated with an increased risk of severe periodontal disease in patients with metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSION: It is concrete that periodontal disease is related to MS through obesity, serum Interleukin-6 level, and age of patients, on the other hand, no relationship between gender was found.
