Exposure measurement in the association between periodontal disease and prematurity/low birth weight

Abstract: The association between PD and PLBW weight was consistent, except for exposure measurement 1, i.e. using at least one site with CAL> or =3 mm for periodontitis diagnosis, while the magnitude of this varied according to the definition established.

“…Different associations between periodontal status and preterm birth alone (PB), low birth weight (LBW), or preterm birth associated to low birth weight (PLBW) have been shown in cross-sectional studies (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36), as well as in casecontrol studies (37,38). However, other cohort studies (36,(39)(40)(41), as well as case-control studies (17,(42)(43)(44)(45), did not find a significant association.…”

“…Trata-se de uma população jovem, com média de idade de aproximadamente 24 anos. Em idades mais precoces, a detecção das doenças periodontais, em particular da periodontite crônica, se torna mais difícil, já que os sinais clínicos de perda de inserção, em geral, só são observados mais tardiamente 26 . Neste caso, seria necessário classificar a periodontite por critérios de diagnósticos com maior sensibilidade, em detrimento da especificidade.…”

“…One example of this was the implementation of periodontal examinations covering the mouth completely, given that periodontal disease, which remains little studied with regard to its contributions towards systemic illnesses, could be an important confounding factor for LBW. (14) In addition, it is emphasized that while the present study was still at the planning stage, it was adapted to conform with the STROBE recommendations, (23) which provide guidance for publishing papers within the field of epidemiology. The advice contained has the aim of guiding the publication of data coming from observational epidemiological architecture.…”

“…This was directed towards identifying the existence of any periodontal disease among the participants, in accordance with the criteria proposed in the literature. (14) DATA ANALYSIS After the data gathering had been completed, descriptive analysis on the main dependent variable (LBW) and all the covariables considered in the study was conducted by means of numerical measurements. Simple frequencies were obtained, and statistical differences were assessed using the Pearson chi-square test, with a significance level of 5%.…”
