Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of periodontal inflammation on oxidative stress in patients with atherosclerosis by considering serum and saliva total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI).
Materials And Methods: In the study, there were 4 groups, with 20 individuals in each group. These groups consisted of individuals who had periodontitis with atherosclerosis (group A-P), were periodontally healthy with atherosclerosis (group A-C), were systemically healthy with periodontitis (group P), and were systemically and periodontally healthy (group C).
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of periodontitis on oxidative stress parameters by investigating serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) total antioxidant capacity (TAOC), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI) values in patients with rheumatic heart valve disease (RHVD).
Materials And Methods: The study population comprised 76 patients, who were divided into four groups: chronic periodontitis with RVHD (RV-CP), periodontally healthy with RVHD (RV-C), systemically healthy with chronic periodontitis (CP), and systemically and periodontally healthy (C). Demographic, periodontal, and echocardiographic parameters were measured.
