“…15 Advantageous to scientists, several serum biomarkers associated with inflammation, atherosclerosis, plaque stability and myocardial damage are known and can appear in oral fluids. 16-21 However, a factor not yet well understood is which oral fluid would best reflect serum levels of these important biomarkers. To address this, we hypothesized that unstimulated whole saliva (UWS) would reflect myocardial status better than sublingual swabs (LS) or gingival swabs (GS).…”

“…30 Support for the use of saliva for the detection of CVD and myocardial infarction is built upon the framework that many serum biomarkers associated with inflammation, atherosclerosis, plaque stability and myocardial damage are known and appear in oral fluids. 4, 9, 3135 However, only a limited number of studies have demonstrated correlations between serum and salivary biomarkers of CVD. 14, 33, 36 Thus, additional research is required if we are to gain a greater understanding of the clinical utility of saliva compared to serum with respect to CVD and myocardial infarction assessment.…”
