Data are presented as adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals).
HDL, high-density lipoprotein; IDF, International Diabetes Federation; MetS, metabolic syndrome; NCEP-ATP III, National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III.
IDF criteria include the presence of 3 or more conditions: hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance, low HDL, hypertriglyceridemia, or waist circumference ≥94 cm (men).
NCEP-ATP III criteria include the presence of 3 or more conditions: hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance, low HDL, hypertriglyceridemia, or waist circumference ≥102 cm (men).
Composite event defined as either the periodontal measure reached the threshold level or the tooth was lost.
Adjusted for baseline age and highest level of education completed (high school, some college, college) and time-dependent values of cigarette use (no/yes), cigar use (no/yes), plaque on tooth (none/interproximal only versus interproximal plus at least 1 other surface), and number of decayed/filled surfaces per tooth.
Disease event adjusted for baseline age, education, pocket depth score, and time-dependent values of cigarette use, cigar use, and plaque. Composite event additionally adjusted for number of decayed/filled surfaces per tooth.
Disease event adjusted for baseline age, education, clinical attachment loss score, and time-dependent values of cigarette use, cigar use, and plaque. Composite event additionally adjusted for number of decayed/filled surfaces per tooth.
Disease event adjusted for baseline age, education, alveolar bone loss score, and time-dependent values of cigarette use, cigar use, and plaque. Composite event additionally adjusted for number of decayed/filled surfaces per tooth.
Disease event adjusted for baseline age, education, mobility score, and time-dependent values of cigarette use, cigar use, and plaque. Composite event additionally adjusted for number of decayed/filled surfaces per tooth.
