Authors

Cross-sectional analysis shows chronic stress raises inflammatory biomarkers in periodontitis, suggesting implications for treatment.

Higher perceived stress correlates with elevated inflammatory biomarkers like IL-1β and cortisol, revealing stress's impact on systemic inflammation.
Despite increased biomarkers, no significant association with clinical attachment loss was detected, with CAL linked more to age and serum VIP levels.
Conducted as a cross-sectional observational study involving 80 participants from a dental outpatient setting to explore relationships effectively.
Findings highlight the complexity of periodontitis progression, suggesting stress management may improve treatment outcomes.

Varma et al. (2025) studied this question.
