Ref. No. Study Country Year Sample Size Parameters for Evaluated for the Diagnosis of COPD Parameters for Evaluated for the Diagnosis of Periodontitis Main Findings
[26] Khijmatgar et al. India 2021 n = 212 clinical diagnosis DMFT, SiC, CPITN, and OHI-S. Candida The prevalence of Candida was notably elevated in the COPD patient cohort; within the realm of COPD patients, those under theophylline treatment exhibited a higher incidence of Candida colonization.
[27] Parashar et al. India 2018 n = 98 clinical diagnosis PI, GI, AL, PPD, CPI The results pertaining to the PI, and GI exhibited a marked elevation among patients in the test diseases group when compared to the control group.
[28] Vadiraj et al. India 2013 n = 100 Sputum CAL, BOP Improve oral health status may prove to lower the severity of lung infection in susceptible populations.
[29] Sharma et al. India 2011 n = 200 SES PI, OHI, GI, PPD, CAL Patients with respiratory conditions exhibited inferior OHI and PI scores, along with notably elevated GI, PPD, and CAL values compared to the control group.
[30] Moeintaghavi et al. Iran 2018 n = 50 FEV1/FVC ratio, CAT, MMRC, SpO2 PPD GI PI AL The relationship between periodontal variables and respiratory indices in the course of COPD, early treatment of periodontal diseases, might considerably reduce the severity of COPD.
[31] Javaheri et al. Iran 2020 n = 71 CAT PPD, BOP, AL Periodontal problems are positively associated with COPD severity as determined by GOLD criteria and negatively associated with quality of life of patients with COPD.
[32] Bomble et al. India 2020 n = 117 Spirometer PPD, CAL, OHI The mean scores for PPD, CAL, and OHI were higher in the COPD group compared to the non-COPD group; furthermore, the COPD group exhibited a higher proportion of smokers in comparison to the non-COPD group.
[41] Kedlaya et al. India 2021 n = 80 Serum cotinine level, smoking history GI, CAL Increased smoking with COPD causes a higher chance of progression of periodontal destruction but it is not statistically significant.
[42] Rastogi et al. India 2019 n = 700 clinical diagnosis PDI, PIRI A survey of patients with various pulmonary diseases (TB, COPD, pneumonia) led to the diagnosis of periodontitis in the majority of the study cohort, with a significant proportion being classified in the high-risk category by their PIRI scores.
[43] Raj et al. India 2018 n = 340 clinical diagnosis DMFT, OHI, PDI, Candida The need for regular oral health maintenance for those under COPD treatment and for greater research into the possible protective role of inhaled corticosteroids in limiting periodontal disease among patients.
[44] Bhavsar et al. India 2015 n = 200 clinical diagnosis PI, OHI, PPD, CALs CRP level The frequency of brushing was notably reduced in COPD patients as compared to the control group. Additionally, the GI, PI, OHI-S, PPD, and CAL exhibited elevated levels in the COPD group.
[45] Peter et al. India 2013 n = 501 FEV1 PI, OHI, GI, PPD CAL, A marked elevation in CAL, PD, and OHI was observed in the patients with respiratory in comparison to the control group, revealing a trend towards augmented severity of pulmonary obstruction as these periodontal parameters worsen.
