Intensive periodontal treatment (subgingival SRP with or without other periodontal treatment) vs Supra-gingival scaling: Endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation)
- Population
- Adults (any age/sex) with chronic periodontitis (>=5 teeth remaining; PPD >4 mm), with or without hypertension
- Intervention
- Intensive periodontal treatment (subgingival SRP with or without other periodontal treatment)
- Comparison
- Supra-gingival scaling
- Outcome
- Endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation)
Intensive periodontal treatment (subgingival SRP with or without… led to higher endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation) compared with supra-gingival scaling; GRADE not reported.

How reviews are matched to this question
Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
