Periodontal Infection as a Possible Risk Factor for Preterm Low Birth Weight
Steven Offenbacher,Vern Katz,Gregory Fertik,John A. Collins,Doryck Boyd,Doryck Boyd,Gayle Maynor,Rosemary G. McKaig,James D. Beck +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that periodontal disease is a statistically significant risk factor for PLBW with adjusted odds ratios of 7.9 and 7.5 for all PLBW cases and primiparous PL BW cases, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The early initiation of antiretroviral therapy before the CD4+ count fell below two prespecified thresholds significantly improved survival, as compared with deferred therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal Periodontitis and Prematurity. Part I: Obstetric Outcome of Prematurity and Growth Restriction
Steven Offenbacher,S. Lieff,Kim A. Boggess,Amy P. Murtha,Phoebus N. Madianos,Catherine M. E. Champagne,Rosemary G. McKaig,Heather Jared,Sally M. Mauriello,Richard L. Auten,William N. P. Herbert,James D. Beck +11 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that maternal periodontal disease and incident progression are significant contributors to obstetric risk for preterm delivery, low birth weight and low weight for gestational age and underscore the need for further consideration of periodontals disease as a potentially new and modifiable risk forPreterm birth and growth restriction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive periodontal disease and risk of very preterm delivery.
Steven Offenbacher,Kim A. Boggess,Amy P. Murtha,Heather Jared,Susan Lieff,Rosemary G. McKaig,Sally M. Mauriello,Kevin Moss,James D. Beck +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that maternal periodontal disease increases relative risk for preterm or spontaneous preterm births and was a predictor of the more severe adverse pregnancy outcome of very preterm birth, independently of traditional obstetric,periodontal, and social domain risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Papillomavirus and head and neck cancer: Epidemiology and molecular biology
TL;DR: Human papillomaviruses are known to cause cancers of the cervix and other anogenital tract sites and epidemiologic and molecular biology studies have suggested that HPV infection may be associated with cancers ofThe head and neck.
