AbstractMetabolic syndrome (MetS) refers to the pathological state of metabolic disorders in the body's proteins, fats, carbohydrates and other substances. MetS is a systemic metabolic disease. Periodontal disease is also a part of systemic inflammatory diseases. Among Chinese patients with middle-aged and elderly MetS, the periodontal morbidity is very high, which is due to the involvement of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of MetS and periodontal disease. The latter may also be a risk factor for the former's morbidity and promotion of disease progression. At present, there are not many investigations and studies on periodontal examination data and periodontal disease prevalence of patients with MetS. Coal mine workers, especially coal mine underground workers, have different work natures and different working environments. See related report.We will collect the clinical diagnosis and treatment information of the enrolled patients. We will focus on checking the incidence of periodontal disease and recording. Establish a database, check every 10 medical records, and make corrections in time to ensure data accuracy. We will popularize oral hygiene knowledge for the included patients and guide them to brush their teeth correctly and how to use dental floss. We will perform periodontal examination on the patients' teeth by site and record the plaque index, gingival sulcus bleeding index, periodontal pocket exploration depth and other indicators. We will repeat the above inspection items and record in the second and fourth weeks of the experiment.This study will explore the correlation between periodontal disease and MetS of coal mine workers. We aim to clarify the role and mechanism of MetS in the occurrence and development of periodontal diseases, guide the prevention of periodontal diseases, and thus reduce the prevalence of periodontal diseases.
