Correlation of prevalence of 3 periodontal pathogens in saliva with clinical peridontal parameters in chronic periodontitis patients in high altitude
Objective To detect the positive rate of 3 periodontal pathogens in chronic periodontitis (CP) patients living in plateau
and analyze the correlation between the prevalence and clinical periodontal parameters. Methods A total of 50 CP patients and 50 periodontal healthy subjects (PH) living in plateau (about 3 800 m) were recruited in this study. Clinical periodontal parameters including bleeding on probing (BOP)
probing depth (PD)
and attachment loss (AL) were recorded. Moreover
3 periodontal pat
hogens in the saliva
Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg)
Tannerella forsythia (Tf) and Treponema denticola (Td) were detected by 16S rRNA based polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results The prevalence of Pg
Tf
and Td were much higher in CP group than that in HP group (
P
0.05). Moreover
the prevalence of Pg
Tf
and Td were much significantly higher in BOP(+) group than those in BOP(-) group (
P
0.05). And there were significant statistical differences between aforementioned groups. With the increase of PD and AL
the the prevalence of Pg
Tf
and Td became higher. Conclusion The prevalence of periodontal pathogens Pg
Tf and Td are positively correlated with clinical periodontal parameters in chronic periodontitic patients in plateau.
