Atherogenic index of plasma identifies subjects with severe liver steatosis

Scientific Reports
Abstract The Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), calculated by log (Triglycerides/HDL-C), has been proposed as a marker of atherogenic and cardiovascular risk. Atherosclerosis and Metabolic Dysfunction—Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) share some pathogenic features and may be considered clinical manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome ...

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Effects of Weight Loss Interventions on Gut Microbiota‐Derived Metabolites Linked to Cardiometabolic Health: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Gut microbiota‐derived metabolites are emerging as potential mediators between obesity and cardiometabolic conditions. While weight loss interventions modify microbiota composition, their effects on systemic microbial metabolites remain unclear.

Targeting Overweight and Obesity Phenotypes for Secondary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease: A Call to Action for the Middle East and Beyond

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although there are conflicting clinical data on the efficacy of weight reduction in reducing secondary events in patients with comorbid overweight and obesity (OAO) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), there is excellent epidemiological and biological evidence of a cause–effect relationship between OAO, CVD, and other systemic complications ...

Association of atherogenic index of plasma and its modified indices with stroke risk in individuals with cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome stages 0–3: a longitudinal analysis based on CHARLS

Cardiovascular Diabetology
Background The association between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), its modified indices (such as AIP-waist circumference [AIP-WC], AIP-waist-to-height ratio [AIP-WHtR], AIP-body mass index[AIP-BMI]), and incident stroke in individuals with ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.
