Association between cardiometabolic index (CMI) and periodontitis in US adults: analysis of NHANES data (2009-2014).

ABSTRACT:

Background

The cardiometabolic index (CMI) is a new predictor of obesity-related diseases, but its link to periodontitis is under-researched. This study aims to examine the potential association between the CMI and periodontitis.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database (2009-2014) to examine the potential association between CMI and periodontitis. The study utilized a weighted multivariate logistic model to assess the association between TG, HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, obesity indices (BMI, WC, WHtR, CMI), and periodontitis, employing the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) to estimate areas under the curve (AUC). Furthermore, generalized smooth curve fitting was conducted to exa
