Background: A unified view of whether asthma and periodontitis interact and the direction of action is not found in previous studies. Therefore, in this article, we will elucidate bidirectional causality by two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR).
Methods: We obtained summary-level data for asthma and periodontitis from the massive GWAS databases of several publicly available. Meanwhile, it will ensure no confounders like smoking using the Phenoscanner website to have a search over each SNP. The F statistic value of each SNP is calculated as more significant than 10. This MR analysis mainly used five MR methods: MR-Egger, weighted median, inverse variance weighted (IVW), simple mode, and weighted mode. As a result, we performed heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy tests.
Results: We have found supporting evidence to verify the hypothesis that asthma may be a protective factor for periodontitis (IVW OR = 0.34; 95% CI = [0.132,0.87]; p = 0.025). The consistent impact direction is shown when additional asthma GWAS dataset are used (MR-Egger OR = 0.118; 95%CI = [0.016,0.883]; p = 0.04). There is no evidence of a causal effect of periodontitis at the risk of asthma in the reverse analysis (p > 0.05).
Conclusions: Our analysis found that people with asthma may have a lower risk of periodontitis than those without. This MR analysis could have significant implications for the clinical process and future research.

Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) molecule is an important type of transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channels, which can cause extracellular Ca to flow into cells after activation. TRPA1 plays an important role in acute and chronic pain, inflammation, kidney disease, cough and asthma, osteoarthritis, cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, and other diseases. In this study, the expression of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and IL-8 in periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) treated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the effect of LPS on PDLSCS proliferation were detected.

Article Synopsis
- Primary atopic disorders (PAD) are rare genetic conditions caused by specific gene variants that affect skin and immune function, making diagnosis challenging among common allergic disease cases.
- Identifying PAD requires recognizing clinical red flags like family history and unusual infections, as conventional lab tests are inadequate for definitive diagnosis.
- Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enhances diagnostic efficiency and accuracy, but requires careful interpretation and collaboration among specialists to effectively manage PAD cases.

Background: Remnant cholesterol (RC) predicts cardiovascular risk and is associated with a range of diseases, including asthma, hypertension, depression, periodontitis, and alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, its correlation with abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) has not been reported.
Methods: Using a cross-sectional approach, this study examined data from the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cycle.

Chronic respiratory illnesses, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, pose significant challenges to public health worldwide. Mounting evidence suggests a bidirectional relationship between respiratory health and oral health, with periodontal disease emerging as a potential risk factor for the development and exacerbation of respiratory conditions. This review paper explores the complex interplay between periodontal disease and chronic respiratory illness, highlighting the importance of oral health maintenance in promoting respiratory well-being.
