The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of diabetes among patients with periodontitis and to evaluate whether diabetes is related to extent and severity of periodontitis.
This is a retrospective study of data observed over a 10-year period in patients referred to a specialized clinic for periodontology in the Netherlands. Patients received at the intake appointment a full-mouth periodontal examination, and based on the clinical data, patients were classified with respect to extent and severity of periodontitis. In addition, the prevalence of diabetes was recorded, based on self-report.
A total of 5375 periodontitis patients were included in the study sample (mean age of 50 years). The prevalence of diabetes in this patient sample was 3.7% (n=192). No relation between diabetes and extent or severity of periodontitis could be established.
The prevalence of diabetes in a predominantly "controlled" diabetic population was not related to the extent and/or severity of periodontitis along with the finding that the prevalence was lower than the national diabetes prevalence in the Netherlands.
本研究的目的是评估牙周炎患者中糖尿病的患病率，并评估糖尿病是否与牙周炎的范围和严重程度相关。
这是一项对荷兰一家牙周病专科诊所10年间观察的数据进行的回顾性研究。患者在初诊时接受了全口牙周检查，并根据临床数据对患者的牙周炎范围和严重程度进行分类。此外，根据自我报告记录糖尿病的患病率。
研究样本共纳入5375例牙周炎患者（平均年龄50岁）。该患者样本中糖尿病的患病率为3.7%（n = 192）。未发现糖尿病与牙周炎范围或严重程度之间存在关联。
在主要为“受控”糖尿病患者群体中，糖尿病患病率与牙周炎范围和/或严重程度无关，且该患病率低于荷兰全国糖尿病患病率。
