In this systematic review, we explore and summarize the peer‐reviewed literature on
putative genetic risk factors for susceptibility to aggressive and chronic periodontitis. A …

We aimed to conduct a review of the literature for gene polymorphisms associated with
chronic periodontitis (CP) susceptibility. A comprehensive search of the literature in English …

Background Chronic periodontitis (CP), defines as destruction of the supporting tissues of
the teeth and resorption of the alveolar bone. It is widespread in human populations and …

Deng H, Liu F, Pan Y, ** X, Wang H, Cao J. BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the
vitamin D receptor gene and periodontitis: a meta‐analysis of 15 studies including 1338 …

Vitamin D deficiency and periodontitis are commonly prevalent among Saudi adults.
However, the association between periodontitis and vitamin D status has not been well …

INTRODUCTION: Vitamin D is responsible for the regulation of certain genes at the
transcription level, via interaction with the vitamin D receptor, and influences host immune …

Objective The potential role of VDR gene variations in modulating periodontal susceptibility
have been a subject of scientific investigations. The aim of this paper is to perform a …

Background: The purpose of the meta‐analysis is to explore the association between
vitamin D receptor polymorphisms (including four gene loci: Taq‐I, Bsm‐I, Apa‐I, and Fok‐I) …

Background: There has been increasing interest in the study of the association between
Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and risk of chronic periodontitis. However …

Background: Polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene have been implicated in
susceptibility to infections and bone‐related diseases. However, their relationship with …
