ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To determine the serum levels of lipid and glucose in patients with periodontitis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP, n = 117) and chronic periodontitis (CP, n = 40) and healthy controls (n = 37) were recruited. Peripheral blood sample was obtained from each subject by venipuncture. Serum chemistry variables including total cholesterol, triglycerides, and fasting glucose were analyzed by biochemical analyzer.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The average serum levels of triglycerides and glucose of the patients with AgP [(1.09 +/- 0.79) mmol/L and (5.07 +/- 0.66) mmol/L] were both significantly higher than those of the control group [(0.94 +/- 0.28) mmol/L and (4.62 +/- 0.64) mmol/L], P < 0.05. Higher serum levels of total cholesterol and glucose were also observed in patients with CP [(4.61 +/- 1.23) mmol/L and (5.40 +/- 1.01) mmol/L] compared with controls [(4.49 +/- 0.78) mmol/L and (4.62 +/- 0.64) mmol/L], P < 0.05. Serum level of total cholesterol in AgP group was positively associated with percentage of severe sites (r = 0.25, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Patients with periodontitis may have altered serum lipid and glucose levels compared with controls.</p>
