ABSTRACT
AIM:
This prospective cohort study investigated the association between periodontal diseases (PDs) and all-cause and cause-specific mortality. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We utilized adult participants recruited from six National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey cycles (1999-2014) and linked mortality data from the National Death Index up to December 2019. Baseline clinical periodontal examinations were performed by trained and calibrated examiners. All-cause and cause-specific mortality was modelled through multivariable Cox proportional hazards and Fine-Gray models to account for competing risks. All models were adjusted for demographic and lifestyle variables, clinical measurements and comorbidities.RESULTS:
Overall, 15,030 participants were included, with a median length of follow-up of 9 years. Risk of all-cause mortality was 22% greater in people with PD than the control group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.22, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-1.31). Risks of mortality by cardiovascular diseases (CVD), respiratory disease and diabetes were highest in participants with severe PD (CVD-sub-distribution HR [SHR] 1.38, 95% CI 1.16-1.64; respiratory-SHR 1.62, 95% CI 1.07-2.45; diabetes-SHR 1.68, 95% CI 1.12-2.53).CONCLUSIONS:
Severe PD is associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortality among US adults after multivariable adjustment.Key words
