Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of the progression of periodontitis presently depends on the use of clinical symptoms (such as attachment loss) and radiographic imaging. The aim of the multicenter study described here was to evaluate the diagnostic use of the bacterial content of subgingival plaque recovered from the deepest pockets in assessing disease progression in chronic periodontitis patients. METHODS This study consisted of a 24-month investigation of a total of 163 patients with chronic periodontitis who received trimonthly follow-up care. Subgingival plaque from the deepest pockets was recovered and assessed for bacterial content of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans using the modified Invader PLUS assay. The corresponding serum IgG titers were measured using ELISA. Changes in clinical parameters were evaluated over the course of 24 months. The sensitivity, specificity, and prediction values were calculated and used to determine cutoff points for prediction of the progression of chronic periodontitis. RESULTS Of the 124 individuals who completed the 24-month monitoring phase, 62 exhibited progression of periodontitis, whereas 62 demonstrated stable disease. The P. gingivalis counts of subgingival plaque from the deepest pockets was significantly associated with the progression of periodontitis (p < 0.001, positive predictive value = 0.708). CONCLUSIONS The P. gingivalis counts of subgingival plaque from the deepest pockets may be associated with the progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE A diagnosis of periodontitis progression is presently limited to clinical parameters such as attachment loss and radiographic imaging. The aim of this multicenter study was to monitor disease progression in patients with chronic periodontitis during a 24-mo follow-up program and to evaluate the amount of bacteria in saliva and corresponding IgG titers in serum for determining the diagnostic usefulness of each in indicating disease progression and stability. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 163 patients with chronic periodontitis who received trimonthly follow-up care were observed for 24 mo. The clinical parameters and salivary content of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans were assessed using the modified Invader PLUS assay, and the corresponding serum IgG titers were measured using ELISA. The changes through 24 mo were analyzed using cut-off values calculated for each factor. One-way ANOVA or Fisher's exact test was used to perform between-group comparison for the data collected. Diagnostic values were calculated using Fisher's exact test. RESULTS Of the 124 individuals who completed the 24-mo monitoring phase, 62 exhibited periodontitis progression, whereas 62 demonstrated stable disease. Seven patients withdrew because of acute periodontal abscess. The ratio of P. gingivalis to total bacteria and the combination of P. gingivalis counts and IgG titers against P. gingivalis were significantly related to the progression of periodontitis. The combination of P. gingivalis ratio and P. gingivalis IgG titers was significantly associated with the progression of periodontitis (p = 0.001, sensitivity = 0.339, specificity = 0.790). CONCLUSIONS It is suggested that the combination of P. gingivalis ratio in saliva and serum IgG titers against P. gingivalis may be associated with the progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of the shape of the mandibular cortex on panoramic radiographs with the risk of an osteoporosis diagnosis without prevalent fractures and with the risk of osteoporotic fractures in Japanese men and women. SUBJECTS AND METHODS One thousand and twenty-one subjects aged 40-89 years, who visited our university hospital and underwent panoramic radiography between 2007 and 2013, participated in this study. Eighty-eight patients received a diagnosis of osteoporosis without prevalent fractures, and 55 were diagnosed with osteoporotic fractures. Blinded to the groupings, we classified the shape of the mandibular cortex on panoramic radiographs as normal, moderately eroded or severely eroded. RESULTS After adjustment for confounding factors, the odds ratios for an osteoporosis diagnosis associated with moderately eroded and severely eroded mandibular cortices were 1.4 (95% CI, 0.8-2.6) and 2.6 (95% CI, 1.4-5.0), respectively. The odds ratios for an osteoporotic fracture associated with moderately eroded and severely eroded cortices were 0.8 (95% CI, 0.4-1.7) and 1.1 (95% CI, 0.5-2.5), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Subjects in Japan with eroded mandibular cortices tended to be at increased risk of osteoporosis diagnoses but not of fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The cortical width below the mental foramen of the mandible determined from panoramic radiographs is a useful screening tool for identifying elderly individuals with a low skeletal bone mineral density (BMD). However, whether the mandible cortical width (MCW) is useful for identifying a low skeletal BMD in men and women of 40 years or younger is not known. METHODS The BMD of the calcaneus was measured by ultrasonography bone densitometry in 158 men and 76 women aged 18-36 years. A logistic regression analysis adjusted for age was used to calculate the odds ratios and 95% confidence interval (CI) of having a low calcaneal BMD, according to the quartiles of the MCW. The areas under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) for identifying participants with a low calcaneal BMD using the MCW were assessed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of the MCW. RESULTS In men, the adjusted odds ratios of a low calcaneal BMD associated with the second, third and lowest quartiles of MCW were 5.66 (95% CI, 0.61-52.23), 5.43 (95% CI, 0.59-50.18) and 33.22 (95% CI, 3.97-276.94), respectively, compared with the highest quartile, while no significant trend in the adjusted odds ratios was observed in women. The AUC for identifying participants with a low calcaneal BMD based on the MCW was 0.796 (95% CI, 0.702-0.890) in men and 0.593 (95% CI, 0.398-0.788) in women. CONCLUSION MCW determined from panoramic radiographs can be used to identify undetected low calcaneus BMD in young adult men, but not in young adult women.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to investigate the effect of changes in horizontal X-ray beam angulation in intraoral radiography on the detection accuracy of furcation defects in the mandibular first molar, and to examine the anatomical relationship between the roots and furcation area as a possible cause of changes in detectability. METHODS Simulated furcation defects with various depths were created in five mandibular first molars. Intraoral radiographs were taken at various horizontal angulations of the projection beams. The diagnostic accuracies were determined based on receiver operating characteristic analysis. The geometric relationship that might influence the accuracy was investigated through use of a compact cone beam CT in 59 first molar areas. RESULTS Although the horizontal angulations showing the highest accuracies were shifted mesially, no differences were found between the angles of -10 degrees and 20 degrees . The relationship between the roots and the furcation area was relevant to the range of angulations showing high detectabilities. CONCLUSIONS The angulations traditionally used for detecting proximal caries are also suitable for detecting furcation defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Men are at higher risk for periodontal and cardiovascular diseases compared with women, although they have lower serum levels of risk markers, including lipids and acute phase proteins. In this study, we investigated whether infection with a major periodontal pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis, affected the inflammatory and atherosclerotic response of male and female mice differently. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-eight heterozygous apolipoprotein E-deficient mice (24 males and 24 females), maintained on normal diet, were infected twice by intrasubcutaneous chamber injections of P. gingivalis or vehicle at weeks 11 and 14 of age. Serum samples were collected before the first infection and bi-weekly thereafter, to quantify levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and the murine acute phase protein, serum amyloid A (SAA). Mice were killed at week 17 to evaluate aortic atheroma lesion score. RESULTS Males had significantly higher baseline HDL cholesterol levels (p < 0.01, factorial ANOVA). Following P. gingivalis infection, HDL cholesterol levels decreased over time in infected males only [p < 0.05, generalized estimating equation (GEE)], whereas SAA levels increased and remained elevated over time in both male and female infected mice (p < 0.01, GEE). Lesion scores were significantly higher in infected mice (3-fold, p < 0.01, factorial ANOVA), and lesion scores of all mice were positively correlated with SAA levels at the time of killing (Spearman correlation coefficient = 0.40, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION In these young mice, P. gingivalis infection induced sex-specific changes in serum lipids but no gender differences in acute phase proteins and atheroma lesion score.

Abstract
The relationship between oral indicators and bone mineral density (BMD) has been studied by many investigators, with mixed and complex results. The purpose of the present cross-sectional study was to evaluate the associations of periodontal conditions and tooth loss with metacarpal BMD (m-BMD) in a community-based cohort and the usefulness of tooth count as a potential screening tool to detect low BMD. Subjects were 356 Japanese women (171 premenopausal, mean age 37.9+/-8.0 years; 185 postmenopausal, mean age 63.3+/-7.7 years). Periodontal status was evaluated by the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN). m-BMD was measured by computerized X-ray densitometry. The proportion of subjects with periodontitis (CPITN 3 or 4) increased as m-BMD decreased. The odds ratio (OR) of osteopenia or osteoporosis in relation to periodontitis was 3.2 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.0--5.3). After adjustment for age and menopausal status, the OR was 2.0 (95% CI, 1.1--3.7). Among postmenopausal women, those having fewer than 20 teeth were 1.6 times more likely to have low m-BMD than those having more than 20 teeth (chi-square for trend in postmenopausal group, 4.27; P<0.05). Receiver-operating curve (ROC) analysis indicated that number of teeth remaining or CPITN score had a greater than 50/50 chance to correctly identify women with osteoporosis or osteopenia, but the areas under the curve (0.72 and 0.67, respectively) are considered less than highly accurate screening tools. These results indicate that periodontitis and tooth loss after menopause may be useful indicators of m-BMD loss in Japanese women.

Abstract
The relationship between periodontitis and systemic bone mineral density in Japanese women is undetermined. We tested the hypothesis that periodontitis was more frequent in women with low metacarpal bone mineral density (m-BMD). Subjects were 190 Japanese women (89 premenopausal, 101 post-menopausal). Periodontal status was evaluated according to the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Need (CPITN). M-BMD was measured by computed x-ray densitometry. The proportion of subjects with periodontitis (CPITN > or = 3) increased as m-BMD decreased in pre-menopausal (18.2%, 36.9%, and 66.6% in the normal, borderline, and very low m-BMD groups, p < 0.02) and post-menopausal women (41.5%, 54.8%, 60%, and 68.4% in the normal, borderline, low, and very low m-BMD groups, p < 0.05). Among post-menopausal women, those with very low m-BMD had fewer teeth present than women with normal m-BMD (19.9+/-7.2 vs. 25.1+/-4.1, p < 0.01). These results indicate that m-BMD loss is associated with periodontitis in Japanese women, and with tooth loss after menopause.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infection after a periodontal surgical site has been prepared for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is one of the common complications that can compromise healing. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of repeated local antimicrobial therapy following GTR for improving clinical attachment gains, and to histologically evaluate the various cell populations and bacterial contamination of the retrieved expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane (ePTFE). METHODS Forty periodontal intrabony defects in 40 patients were treated by a flap procedure that included the use of ePTFE membranes to allow GTR. Patients were randomly assigned to 2 treatment groups: 20 patients were treated with the ePTFE alone (control group), and the other 20 were treated with the ePTFE combined with the administration of a weekly repeated local application of minocycline ointment for 8 weeks after membrane placement (test group). The membranes were retrieved 6 weeks after the initial surgery and sectioned serially in a coronal-apical plane. The sections were then divided into 9 fields and examined by light microscopy for the presence of inflammatory cells and oral bacteria. Clinical measurements were taken at the time of baseline examination and at a 6-month follow-up examination after removal of the ePTFE. RESULTS At the 6-month follow-up examination, control and test groups showed significant improvement; i.e., reduction in the probing depth and increased clinical attachment gain compared with the values at the baseline examination. However, the mean clinical attachment gain of the test group (3.0+/-0.3 mm) was significantly (P = 0.03) greater than that of the control group (2.0+/-0.5 mm). Histologically, the total number of the cells of both groups was similar. In both groups, mononuclear cells were dominant and fibroblasts, neutrophils, and plasma cells were rarely encountered. There was a tendency for the number of macrophages to be somewhat higher in the control group. The total number of bacteria in the test group was significantly less than that in the control group. The number of bacteria in both control and test groups decreased toward the apical portion. CONCLUSIONS In the present study, clinical attachment gain of intrabony defects following GTR was favorable with repeated local administration of minocycline ointment. However, a complete microbial eradication was not achieved.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the types of inflammatory cells and bacterial contamination on expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membranes which might affect new tissue formed by guided tissue regeneration (GTR). Forty periodontal bony defects were treated by the flap procedure, which included the use of an ePTFE membrane. Twelve months after the second surgery, the defect sites were re-evaluated for changes in probing depth and clinical attachment level. The ePTFE membranes were retrieved after 4 to 6 weeks of healing and sectioned serially at 3 microm in a coronal-apical plane. The ePTFE membrane was divided into 3 portions: cervical, middle, and apical, each of which was subdivided into outer, central, and inner segments, providing a total of 9 fields. Cells and bacteria were analyzed by light microscopy for their types: mononuclear cell, erythrocyte, fibroblast, neutrophil, plasma cell, T lymphocyte, B lymphocyte, macrophage, and oral bacteria. Both cells and bacteria decreased in number towards the apical portion and were present even in the central part. Most cells were mononuclear cells. Erythrocytes, fibroblasts, neutrophils, and plasma cells were rarely encountered. Bacteria, most of which were Gram-positive, were observed in almost the same number in the outer and inner parts. The results indicate that numerous inflammatory cells adhered to and invaded the ePTFE membranes accompanied by bacterial contamination and that there was a tendency for a negative correlation between the increment number of bacteria and the gain of clinical attachment level.

Abstract
Male osteoporosis is increasingly recognized as an important public health issue. Possible factors include alcohol and tobacco consume and longer life expectancy. The main causes of male osteoporosis are secondary, as hypogonadism, use of glucorticoids and other drugs. The age-related decline in testosterone may be concomitant of ageing or may contribute to reduced bone formation and bone loss in men. Currently, therapy decisions are based on studies in women and animal models, once there is no trials with definitive results in men. Therefore, the aim of this review is to analyse some features of pathophysiology of bone loss in men, as well as the aetiological factors, clinical characteristics and therapy.

Abstract
Various immunologic and clinical abnormalities have been described in patients with chronic hepatitis C: mixed cryoglobulins, autoimmune thyroiditis, pulmonary fibrosis, polymyositis, and vasculitis. Moreover, laboratory immunologic changes have been reported in this type of infection, such as rheumatoid factor and antinuclear antibodies. The association of primary Sjögren's syndrome with hepatitis C virus infection has been suggested. We will discuss different clinical and laboratory aspects of this association.

Abstract
The effects of long-term methotrexate (MTX)-induced neutropenia on the periodontal lesion in rats were investigated histologically, histometrically and bacteriologically. A nylon thread was inserted into the interdental gingiva between the 1st and 2nd right maxillary molars of the animals 3 weeks before an application of MTX. The animals were then divided into Groups A and B. Group B were injected intraperitoneally with 1.0 mg/kg of MTX 3 times per week for 9 weeks. Group A received saline as a control. Five animals were killed at the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th week. In Group A, the neutrophils did not decrease during these 9 weeks. In Group B, however, the neutrophils decreased during the 3rd to 9th week. Whereas the experimental side of Group A showed only moderate alveolar bone resorption between the 7th and 9th week, [in Group B] a marked alveolar bone resorption occurred in Group B occurred in the same period. Alveolar bone loss in the experimental side of Group B was significantly greater (p < 0.01) than in Group A in the 7th to 9th weeks. The percentage of gram-negative rods increased in both control and experimental sides of Group at the 9th week. The results of the present study indicate that neutropenia is induced by a long-term application of MTX in rats and that alveolar bone destruction increases as time goes by in the area where a nylon thread was inserted.

Abstract
A new scheme for the treatment of dermatopolymyositis with pulmonary fibrosis not responding to corticosteroid therapy is presented. Monthly endovenous administration of a small dose of cyclophosphamide is advocated. Two patients with dermatopolymyositis not responding to prednisone were treated for two years with small doses of cyclophosphamide given monthly after which recovered from muscular and pulmonary involvement showing at present normal clinical parameters.

Abstract
To evaluate objectively clinical efficacy, safety and usefulness of cefuroxime axetil (CXM-AX) in acute dental infections (periodontitis, pericoronitis and gnathitis), we carried out a comparison study using cefaclor (CCL) as the control. Both drugs were orally given after meals in a dose level of 250 mg (potency) t.i.d. for 3-7 days. 1. Clinical efficacy rates in all the treated cases were 81.6% (102/125) in the CXM-AX group and 82.5% (104/126) in the CCL group according to the assessment by physicians in charge, and 89.6% (112/125) and 83.3% (105/126), respectively, according to the assessment based on scores. No significant difference was found between the 2 treatment groups. In clinical efficacy (assessment by score) classified by background factors, efficacy rate in the CXM-AX group (90.6%, 58/64) was significantly higher (P less than 0.05) than that in the CCL group (75.0%, 48/64) in cases receiving no surgical treatment on the first day of drug administration. Other background factors than the above (no surgical treatment) factor or scores on the first day of drug administration, however, did not appear to influence clinical efficacies of 2 treatment groups. 2. As for the bacteriological response in all the treated cases, elimination rate in the CXM-AX group was 73.7% (28/38) and that in the CCL group, 78.3% (36/46), without significant difference between the 2 groups. 3. Regarding the safety, no significant difference was found between the 2 treatment groups. Adverse reactions were observed in 1 out of 128 cases (0.8%) in the CXM-AX group and 6 out of 132 cases (4.5%) in the CCL group. Abnormal laboratory test values were noted in 8 out of 86 cases (9.3%) in the CXM-AX group and 5 out of 91 cases (5.5%) in the CCL group. None of these differences between 2 treatment groups was statistically significant. 4. Usefulness rates in all the treated cases were 81.6% (102/125) in the CXM-AX group and 81.7% (103/126) in the CCL group, thus significant difference was observed between the 2 groups. From the above results, CXM-AX is considered to be a useful drug like CCL in the treatment of acute dental infections.

Abstract
We studied a group of 80 unselected patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Twenty six (32.5%) of them were considered in clinical activity using criteria based on clinical features and laboratory abnormalities. Using an isotype specific enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for anticardiolipin antibodies we found IgG anticardiolipin in 28/80 (35%) and IgM anticardiolipin in 20/80 (25%) patients. Antibodies to native DNA by immunofluorescence were found in 11/80 (14%) patients, whereas antibodies to denatured DNA by ELISA were found in 51/80 (64%) patients. There was an association between disease activity and the presence of anticardiolipin and anti-DNA antibodies particularly of the IgG isotype. We also found an association between anticardiolipin and anti-DNA suggesting a cross reaction between these antibodies, but we are not able to exclude the possibility of a simple coincidental phenomenon due to polyclonal synthesis of immunoglobulin observed during periods of disease activity.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate histologically and histometrically the effect of a long-term methotrexate-induced neutropenia on the periodontal lesion in rats. Forty rats were used in this study. The control side (the interdental area between the left maxillary 1st and 2nd molars) of the rats received no treatment. In the experimental side (the interdental area between the right maxillary 1st and 2nd molars) of the same animals, a suturing nylon thread was inserted into the interdental space between these two molars for 3 weeks to produce a slight inflammation of the gingival tissue. Then, the animals were divided equally into Group A and Group B. Group A received no injection of methotrexate, whereas Group B was injected with 1.0 mg/kg of methotrexate 3 times per week for 1 to 9 weeks. Animals of both groups were killed at 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 weeks. During the sacrifice, peripheral blood was taken from all animals. White blood cells and neutrophils were counted and the periodontal tissues were examined by light microscopy. 1. Blood findings In Group A, the white blood cell count and neutrophil count did not show any changes for 9 weeks. In Group B, however, the white blood cell count and neutrophil count decreased at 3 to 9 weeks. 2. Histological findings In Group A, the control side did not show any changes for 9 weeks, but the experimental side showed a slight gingival inflammation and a moderate alveolar bone resorption at 7 and 9 weeks. In Group B, the control side was similar to that in Group A for 9 weeks, but the experimental side displayed a slight gingival inflammation and a severe alveolar bone resorption at 7 and 9 weeks. 3. Histometrical findings In Groups A and B, the control sides did not show any changes for 9 weeks in the gingival ressection. However, in both groups, the experimental sides showed an increased gingival ressection from 1 to 9 weeks. In the experimental sides, the gingival ressecion between these two groups did not show any differences statistically. In Groups A and B, the control sides did not show any changes for 9 weeks in alveolar bone loss. However, in both groups, the experimental sides showed increasing alveolar bone loss from 1 to 9 weeks. In the experimental sides, the alveolar bone loss in Group B at 7 and 9 weeks was significantly severer (p less than 0.01) than that in Group A for the same weeks.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
