Parallels of Clinical and Immunological Parameters in Patients With Bronchial Asthma

Bronchial asthma and rapidly progressing periodontitis occupy an important place among the population, leading to serious socio-medical and economic consequences, and in severe cases even to disability. Currently, nonspecific diseases of the respiratory system in combination with aggressive periodontitis account for 17.7-28.0% of cases. Evaluation of immunological, clinical and respiratory status indicators in the group of patients with rapidly progressive periodontitis in combination with bronchial asthma revealed that in patients the indicators of the physical condition and ventilation capacity of the lungs were reduced, and the emotional state was tense compared to a group of healthy individuals. Bronchial asthma is characterized by rapid progression of concomitant periodontitis, deterioration of the quality of life and breathing, as well as an improvement in the ventilation and perfusion condition.
