Influence of gender, age and metabolic factors on the course of chronic generalized periodontitis in patients with metabolic syndrome

In a study of 537 patients with chronic generalized periodontitis and metabolic syndrome, depending on gender, age and metabolic factors, it was found that with increasing of body mass index (BMI) symptoms of chronic generalized periodontitis is becoming more unfavorable, there is a close positive relationship between the severity of chronic generalized periodontitis and BMI. Patients' with BMI ≥40 kg/m² in 80% of cases, periodontitis was characterized by severe course. It was found that the gender of the patient becomes relevant only with correlation of age and BMI. It was proved that for the most accurate prognosis of chronic generalized periodontitis, patient's sex, age and BMI should be taken into consideration. The developed model for predicting the course of chronic generalized periodontitis depending on the sex, age and metabolic factors of a particular patient, allows to monitor the dynamics of the disease in time.
