Correlation between aging, periodontal diagnoses and systemic diseases: a retrospective analysis of 3,000 patients.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveAging is a complex biological process driven by interconnected mechanisms such as inflammaging and immunosenescence. It serves as a significant risk factor for numerous chronic conditions. With increasing life expectancy, understanding the interplay between aging, systemic inflammation, and periodontitis has gained renewed research interest. This study aims to identify medical profiles that may pose a risk in periodontology and to explore their relationship with periodontal status, age and gender. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe retrospective study analyzed medical and dental records of 3000 patients who presented to the Department of Periodontology at Sivas Cumhuriyet University. Standard anamnesis forms were examined to collect demographic data, systemic diseases, allergy and infection status, medication use, smoking habits, oral hygiene, periodontal complaints, and diagnoses. Associations among age, periodontal diagnosis, and medical status were statistically evaluated.
resultsThe analysis revealed a high prevalence of both systemic and periodontal diseases, with a notable increase in frequency with age. Systemic diseases were significantly associated with a progression from periodontal health to periodontitis. The mean patient age was 36.3 ± 14.9 years. 69.9% of participants had no systemic diseases. Additionally, 25.8% reported regular medication use. Periodontal complaints were present in 65.5% of the subjects.
conclusionTo enhance oral and systemic health outcomes in the aging population, it is crucial for dentists to conduct detailed anamnesis and tailor personalized treatment protocols based on individual risk factors. Integrated collaboration between medical doctors and dental professionals is essential. Patients should also be educated about the bidirectional link between systemic and periodontal inflammation, especially in older adults.
