Objective: To evaluate the effects of periodontal non-surgical therapy on serum levels of the
inflammatory cytokines in chronic periodontitis subjects with stable coronary heart disease …

During the last years, a large number of epidemiologic studies indicated that subjects with
periodontitis presented a high risk for cardio-vascular diseases. Irrespective of the described …

Objective The aim of this study was to assess whether serum cytokine levels correlate with
clinical periodontal parameters in health or disease. Materials and Methods Male subjects …

Periodontal disease has been associated with elevations of blood cytokines involved in
atherosclerosis in systemically healthy individuals, but little is known about this association …

Background: The inflammatory process that occurs in atherosclerotic plaque situated in the
