“…Consistent with our findings, previous studies have also detected a negative association between clinical parameters of periodontal disease and HDL-c 5,15,22 . The agreement between ours, and previous findings, can be based on the methodological similarities including mean age of the participants, the methodology applied measuring HDL-c levels and the full [23][24][25][26][27] . A possible explanation for these conflicting findings include: the low number of subjects enrolled in some studies 23,24 ; a wide age range of the participants 3,[24][25][26] ; mean age of participants 25 and the lack of adjustment for confounders, such as dental plaque 4,[23][24][25][26] and smoking [24][25][26] .…”

“…Serum albumin, IgG and total cholesterol levels were determined by colorimetry method, immunoassay turbidimetric method and enzyme method, respectively, at a commercial laboratory ( † ). Serum levels of IgG and total cholesterol are immunological or nutrient-related index, which were associated with dental caries or periodontal disease from our past investigation (16,22). Serum albumin concentrations ≤4Á0 g dL À1 were defined as low levels according to previous reports (1,23).…”
