Abstract

Objectives: This study aims at reviewing available evidence on the relationship between obesity and periodontitis, focusing on whether obesity is a risk factor for the development and progression of periodontal disease.

Materials and methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis were reported in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed in databases such as PUBMED, SCOPUS, and Web of Science for studies investigating the correlation between obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²) and periodontitis in adult patients. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I² statistic, and a meta-analysis was performed to calculate pooled odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals.

Results: The analysis included 19 studies with a total of 41,107 patients. The meta-analysis showed a significant association between obesity and an increased risk of periodontitis (OR = 1.31 95% CI: 1.22-1.41) confirming that obesity is a risk factor for periodontal disease.

Conclusion: The results suggest that obesity is significantly associated with an increased risk of periodontitis. Given this correlation, further research is needed to better understand the implications of this association on clinical outcomes.

肥胖是牙周炎的危险因素吗？系统回顾和荟萃分析。

目的：本研究旨在回顾肥胖与牙周炎之间关系的现有证据，重点关注肥胖是否是牙周病发生和进展的危险因素。材料和方法：本系统综述和荟萃分析按照PRISMA指南进行报道。在PUBMED、SCOPUS和Web of Science等数据库中进行搜索，研究肥胖（BMI≥30 kg/m2）与成人牙周炎之间的相关性。采用I2统计量评估异质性，并进行meta分析以95%置信区间计算合并优势比。结果：该分析包括19项研究，共41,107例患者。荟萃分析显示肥胖与牙周炎风险增加之间存在显著关联（OR = 1.31 95% CI: 1.22-1.41），证实肥胖是牙周病的一个危险因素。结论：结果表明，肥胖与牙周炎风险增加显著相关。鉴于这种相关性，需要进一步的研究来更好地理解这种关联对临床结果的影响。

期刊介绍： Obesity Reviews is a monthly journal publishing reviews on all disciplines related to obesity and its comorbidities. This includes basic and behavioral sciences, clinical treatment and outcomes, epidemiology, prevention and public health. The journal should, therefore, appeal to all professionals with an interest in obesity and its comorbidities. Review types may include systematic narrative reviews, quantitative meta-analyses and narrative reviews but all must offer new insights, critical or novel perspectives that will enhance the state of knowledge in the field. The editorial policy is to publish high quality peer-reviewed manuscripts that provide needed new insight into all aspects of obesity and its related comorbidities while minimizing the period between submission and publication.
