TL;DR: A new periodontitis classification scheme has been adopted, in which forms of the disease previously recognized as "chronic" or "aggressive" are now grouped under a single category ("periodontitis") and are further characterized based on a multi-dimensional staging and grading system as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The results indicate that hyperlipaemia and pre-diabetes may be associated with periodontal disease in systemically healthy subjects, but these data do not allow us to decide, whether periodental disease causes an increase in hyperlip aemia and in a prediabetic state or whether periodontAL disease and cardiovascular disease share hyperlipidaemia and the predi diabetic state as common risk factors.

TL;DR: A genome-wide association study of metabolic traits in human urine, designed to investigate the detoxification capacity of the human body, identifies rs37369 in AGXT2 as the genetic basis of hyper-β-aminoisobutyric aciduria and identifies five loci with joint P values of association.
