Logistic regression analysis for the association of periodontitis prevalence (dependent variable) and kidney function in relation to individuals with normal kidney function (GFR≥90) (referent group).

Crude Model 1 Model 2 Model 3
Kidney Function Variables OR (95% CI)
Mildly Reduced Kidney Function (GFR=59–89) 3.42 (2.52–4.63)* 1.67 (1.12–2.48)* 1.92 (1.29–2.86)* 1.75 (1.13–2.71)*
Moderately/Severely Reduced Kidney Function (GFR<60) 7.94 (4.03–15.65)* 2.42 (1.19–5.02)* 2.49 (1.08–5.76)* 2.56 (1.01–6.48)*

Model 1 adjusted for: age and sex. Model 2 adjusted for: age, sex, smoking, diabetic control and duration, BMI, dental visit frequency and hypertension. Model 3 adjusted for: all variables in Model 2 as well as SES variables.
