    • Immunological and Microbiological Profiling of Cumulative Risk Score for Periodontitis 

      Liukkonen, Joonas; Gürsoy, Ulvi K; Könönen, Eija; Akhi, Ramin; Salminen, Aino; Liljestrand, John M; Pradhan-Palikhe, Pratikshya; Pietiäinen, Milla; Sorsa, Timo; Persson, G Rutger; Mäntylä, Päivi; Buhlin, Kåre; Paju, Susanna; Sinisalo, Juha; Hörkkö, Sohvi; Pussinen, Pirkko J (MDPI AG, 2020)
      The cumulative risk score (CRS) is a mathematical salivary diagnostic model to define an individual’s risk of having periodontitis. In order to further validate this salivary biomarker, we investigated how periodontal ...

    • Saliva and serum biomarkers in periodontitis and coronary artery disease 

      Lahdentausta, L; Paju, S; Mäntylä, P; Buhlin, K; Tervahartiala, T; Pietiäinen, M; Alfthan, H; Nieminen, M; Sinisalo, J; Sorsa, T; Pussinen, P (Wiley, 2018)
      Aim Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐8, MMP‐9, tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP)‐1 and myeloperoxidase (MPO) participate in extracellular matrix breakdown both in periodontium and atherosclerotic plaques. ...

    • Smoking confounds the periodontal diagnostics using saliva biomarkers 

      Lahdentausta, Laura; Paju, Susanna; Mäntylä, Päivi; Buhlin, Kåre; Pietiäinen, Milla; Tervahartiala, Taina; Nieminen, Markku S; Sinisalo, Juha; Sorsa, Timo; Pussinen, Pirkko J (Wiley, 2018)
      Aim Smoking is a risk factor for periodontal disease because of its complex impact on the inflammatory response in the periodontium. We investigated the effect of smoking on salivary periodontal biomarkers, matrix ...
