Periodontitis, epicardial adipose tissue and coronary events: the Swedish Cardiopulmonary Bioimage Study
Listen to this summary
This study investigates the relationship between periodontitis and coronary heart disease (CHD), specifically examining whether subclinical atherosclerosis mediates this association and how periodontitis affects epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) as an inflammation marker. The findings reveal that severe periodontitis is linked to increased coronary atherosclerosis, lower EAT attenuation, and a higher risk of incident CHD events, suggesting that periodontitis may serve as a significant marker for cardiovascular risk.
