Association between periodontal disease and mortality in people with CKD: a meta-analysis of cohort studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Periodontal disease occurs relatively prevalently in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but it remains indeterminate whether periodontal disease is an independent risk factor for premature death in this population. Interventions to reduce mortality in CKD population consistently yield to unsatisfactory results and new targets are necessitated. So this meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between periodontal disease and mortality in the CKD population.

Methods

Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and abstracts from recent relevant meeting were searched by two authors independently. Relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for overall and subgroup meta-analyses. Statistical heterogeneity was explored by chi-square test and quantified by the I² statistic.

Results

Eight cohort studies comprising 5477 individuals with CKD were incorporated. The overall pooled data demonstrated that periodontal disease was associated with all-cause death in CKD population (RR, 1.254; 95% CI 1.046-1.503; P = 0.005), with a moderate heterogeneity, I² = 52.2%. However, no evident association was observed between periodontal disease and cardiovascular mortality (RR, 1.30, 95% CI, 0.82-2.06; P = 0.259). Besides, statistical heterogeneity was substantial (I² = 72.5%; P = 0.012). Associations for mortality were similar between subgroups, such as the different stages of CKD, adjustment for confounding factors. Specific to all-cause death, sensitivity and cumulative analyses both suggested that our results were robust. As for cardiovascular mortality, the association with periodontal disease needs to be further strengthened.

Conclusions

We demonstrated that periodontal disease was associated with an increased risk of all-cause death in CKD people. Yet no adequate evidence suggested periodontal disease was also at elevated risk for cardiovascular death.

Project description:Background: The aim of this study was to comprehensively review the literature and synthesize the evidence concerning the relationship between prior calcium channel blocker (CCB) use and mortality in patients with sepsis. Methods: The Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE), Cochrane CENTRAL, and Web of Science databases were searched from their inception to April 9, 2020. Cohort studies related to prior calcium channel blocker use in patients with sepsis were analyzed. Pairs of reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias. The primary outcome of 90-days mortality or secondary outcome of short-term mortality, including 30-days, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and in-hospital mortality, were analyzed. Heterogeneity among studies was assessed using the I 2 statistic and was considered moderate if I 2 was 50-75% and high if I 2 was ≥75%. Random-effects models were used to calculate the pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The quality of the studies was evaluated with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Sensitivity analyses were performed to examine the robustness of the results. Results: In total, 639 potentially relevant studies were identified, and the full texts of 25 articles were reviewed. Ultimately, five cohort studies involving 280,982 patients were confirmed to have a low risk of bias and were included. Prior CCB use was associated with a significantly lower 90-days mortality in sepsis patients [OR, 0.90 (0.85-0.95); I 2 = 31.9%]. Moreover, prior CCB use was associated with a significantly reduced short-term mortality rate in septic shock patients [OR, 0.61 (0.38-0.97); I 2 = 62.4%] but not in sepsis patients [OR, 0.83 (0.66-1.04); I 2 = 95.4%]. Conclusion: This meta-analysis suggests that prior CCB use is significantly associated with improved 90-days mortality in sepsis patients and short-term mortality in septic shock patients. This study provides preliminary evidence of an association between prior CCB use and mortality in sepsis patients.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the relationship between periodontitis and postmenopausal osteoporosis.MethodsThis research was carried out according to the principles laid down by the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guideline statement. We searched the Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, and WanFang databases from inception to July 1, 2023 to collect all relevant publications, with no restrictions on publication date or Languages. Cochrane's tool for assessing RoB was used to evaluate the RoB for RCTs. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the RoB for cohort studies and case-control studies. Mean differences (MD) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were used for analysis of continuous data. Heterogeneity was measured using the I2 statistic. Revman 5.4 software was used for the meta-analysis.Results28 observational studies with 19611 patients, including 5813 cases in the postmenopausal osteoporosis group and 13798 cases in the non-osteoporosis group. The studies showed that the degrees of clinical attachment loss (CAL), probing depth (PD), gingival recession (GR), simplified oral hygiene index (OHIS), and percentage of sites with bleeding on probing (BOP) in the postmenopausal osteoporosis group were higher than those in the non-osteoporosis group[CAL(MD = 0.89(mm), 95 % CI [0.48,1.30], p < 0.00001), PD (MD = 0.27(mm), 95 % CI [0.13, 0.41], p = 0.0001), GR (MD = 0.28(mm), 95 % CI [0.20, 0.35], p < 0.00001), OHIS (MD = 1.32,95 % CI [1.12,1.51], p < 0.00001), BOP(MD = 12.71(%), 95 % CI [3.24,22.18], p = 0.009)]. Eleven studies found that bone mineral density (BMD) in the postmenopausal osteoporosis group was lower than that in non-osteoporosis group (MD = -0.41(U/cm2), 95 % CI [-0.77,-0.05], p = 0.03). The combined analysis results of the studies in the two groups showed that there were no significant differences in the loss of alveolar crestal height (ACH)[(MD = -1.76(%),95%CI [-3.64,0.12], p = 0.07)].ConclusionPostmenopausal osteoporosis patients are more likely to suffer from periodontitis, and the condition is easily aggravated.
