Periodontal disease is a chronic infection of the gums characterised by a loss of attachment
between the tooth and bone, and bone loss. C-reactive protein (CRP) elevation is a part of …

Background: Periodontitis is a local inflammatory process mediating destruction of
periodontal tissues triggered by bacterial insult. However, this disease is also characterized …

CRP is a plasma protein that reflects a measure of the acute phase response to
inflammation and is one of the markers of choice in monitoring this response. CRP can be …

Aim: Elevated plasma C‐reactive protein (CRP) is regarded as a risk predictor for
cardiovascular diseases. This systematic review explored the robustness of observations …

Periodontitis has been associated with low-grade inflammation as assessed by C-reactive
protein (CRP) levels and its treatment can decrease CRP serum levels. The aim of this …

Aim: C‐reactive protein (CRP) has been implicated as a possible mediator of the association
between periodontitis and several systemic diseases. Previous studies suggest an …

Periodontitis is a local inflammatory process mediating the destruction of periodontal tissues,
triggered by bacterial insult. Recent evidence suggests the presence of chronic inflammatory …

Periodontitis has been identified as a potential risk factor for systemic pathologies such as
cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aims of this investigation were to assess the relationship …

Background: Sera from patients with periodontal infections contain elevated levels of C‐
reactive protein (CRP) compared to periodontally healthy individuals. Most studies to date …

Background: Systemic inflammation is increasingly being recognized as a risk factor for
adverse cardiovascular events. Evidence is accumulating that associates periodontal …
