Core Tip
Core Tip: Poor glycemic control and diabetic complications result in severe periodontal destruction. Periodontitis causes systemic inflammatory burden through inflammatory mediators and affects glycemic control. Periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) estimates periodontal inflammatory burden. This cross-sectional study assessed the proportion and severity of periodontitis and evaluated the correlation between PISA and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in controlled, and uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with and without microvascular complications. There was a significant positive correlation between PISA and HbA1c. High proportion and severity of periodontitis, and increased inflamed surface area in uncontrolled T2DM may have contributed to poor glycemic control and microvascular complications.
