Serum Lipoprotein‐Associated Phospholipase A₂ and C‐Reactive Protein Levels in Association With Periodontal Disease and Hyperlipidemia

Abstract

Serum Lp-PLA(2) and hsCRP levels may play an important role in the association between periodontal disease and hyperlipidemia, and the control of these mediators may affect the inflammatory control of patients with hyperlipidemia and periodontal disease.
