This paper aims to investigate the presence of and to assess potential indicators of the risk of severe form(s) of periodontitis. A descriptive cross-sectional study of 156 consecutive patients with periodontitis was conducted. Subgingival plaque samples were collected from the participants. The identification of was performed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. A descriptive analysis, a chi-square test, and a binary logistic regression statistical evaluation were performed. The prevalence of in this population of 156 participants was 17.30% (27 patients). The prevalence of stage-III periodontitis was 75.6% and greater in older men, while the prevalence of stage-IV periodontitis was 22.4% and greater in younger women. We observed a significant relation between the risk of severe periodontitis (stage-IV) and poor oral hygiene ( = 0.006), attendance at dental appointments ( ≤ 0.001), and familial history of periodontitis ( = 0.032). In conclusion, twenty-seven individuals were positive for . Poor oral hygiene, family history of periodontitis, and irregular attendance at dental appointments were identified as potential risk factors for severe periodontitis in this cohort.
本文旨在调查[具体微生物名称未给出]的存在情况，并评估重度牙周炎严重形式的潜在风险指标。对156例连续性牙周炎患者进行了描述性横断面研究。从参与者中采集龈下菌斑样本。使用定量聚合酶链反应进行[具体微生物名称未给出]的鉴定。进行了描述性分析、卡方检验和二元逻辑回归统计评估。在这156名参与者中，[具体微生物名称未给出]的患病率为17.30%（27例患者）。III期牙周炎在老年男性中的患病率为75.6%及以上，而IV期牙周炎在年轻女性中的患病率为22.4%及以上。我们观察到重度牙周炎（IV期）风险与口腔卫生差（P = 0.006）、看牙就诊情况（P≤0.001）和牙周炎家族史（P = 0.032）之间存在显著关联。总之，27人[具体微生物名称未给出]检测呈阳性。口腔卫生差、牙周炎家族史和不定期看牙就诊被确定为该队列中重度牙周炎的潜在风险因素。
