Abstract

This study explored the epidemiological role of central adiposity and body mass index (BMI) in terms of clinical attachment loss (CAL)/pocket depth (PD) and metabolic syndrome components. This study included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III of America on 12,254 adults aged 20 years of age or older with a blood sample, anthropometric measurements, and a periodontal examination. Clinical periodontitis measurements, including CAL and PD, were classified into quintiles or quartiles and compared. CAL was positively associated with central adiposity, hypertension, and hyperglycemia; the relationship between CAL and diabetes was stronger when central adiposity was absent (odds ratio [OR] and 95% confidence interval: 6.33, 2.14–18.72 vs. 3.14, 1.78–5.56). The relationship between CAL and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) differed slightly with BMI. The IFG ORs for normal, overweight, and obese patients were 1.63 (1.08–2.45), 1.76 (1.05–2.97), and 1.43 (0.88–2.30), respectively. CAL was positively correlated with all metabolic syndrome components except hypertriglyceridemia. Associations between CAL, diabetes, and IFG significantly varied with BMI. Periodontitis in individuals without central obesity or with normal bodyweight may independently indicate diabetes and IFG. Therefore, preventive measures against periodontitis without obesity are necessary to improve general and oral health.
