Abstract

The elderly had various oral health issues, one of which is taste sensitivity. Taste sensitivity is highly affected by a person’s health, medication, eating habits, nutritional status, and oral hygiene. As an important organ for the sense of taste, the tongue can be covered in a white coating of debris, bacteria, and dead cells. To clean the tongue coating, one can do tongue brushing procedure, but this practice is not common among the elderly, especially in Indonesia. This cross-sectional study involved 114 older adults (n= 114) in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta- DIY), Indonesia, who were selected using stratified random sampling. The participants first signed the informed consent before undergoing an interview and going through oral clinical examination. This research particularly measured the tongue coating index and taste sensitivity level by way of statistically analyzing both variables to determine the correlation between tongue coating index and taste sensitivity level using three-dropmethod. Data from 114 subjects were presented descriptively using table and graphic. Most of the subjects 90.53% (103 subjects) had a coated tongue with various degree. The correlation statistic between tongue coating index and taste sensitivity level showed the statistically significant correlation (p-value = 0.019) and the coefficient correlation was -0.216, which means that there was a negative and weak correlation between both. Elderly with a higher tongue coating index tended to have less taste sensitivity. This could be due to debris blocking taste buds, thereby reducing taste sensitivity.

Abstract

Populasi lanjut usia merupakan fenomena global yang menjadi tren paling signifikan saat ini dan telah terjadi di semua negara dengan berbagai tingkat perkembangan, termasuk Indonesia. Penyakit periodontal merupakan salah satu permasalahan kesehatan oral yang utama di masyarakat dan keparahannya meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya usia. Penyakit periodontal memiliki dampak yang signifikan terhadap kualitas hidup lanjut usia dan merefleksikan permasalahan kesehatan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkajipengaruh karakteristik sosio-demografi terhadap kondisi jaringan periodontal pada penduduk usia lanjut di Yogyakarta. Penelitian dengan desain potong lintang ini melibatkan 108 responden (n = 108) berusia ≥ 60 tahun. Karakteristik sosio-demografi yang diteliti pada penelitian ini meliputi jenis kelamin, tingkat pendidikan, dan karakteristik wilayah tempat tinggal. Kondisi jaringan periodontal dinilai berdasarkan status perdarahan (bleeding on probing), tingkat kedalaman poket periodontal (pocket depth), dan kehilangan perlekatan jaringan periodontal (clinical attachment loss). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pendidikan dankarakteristik wilayah tempat tinggal berpengaruh terhadap status perdarahan (p = 0,001, p = 0,015) dan rerata kedalaman poket (p = 0,005, p = 0,027), namun tidak berpengaruh terhadap rerata kehilangan perlekatan jaringan periodontal (CAL) (p = 0,148, p = 0,105). Pada penelitian ini, jenis kelamin tidak memiliki pengaruh terhadap kondisi jaringan periodontal, baik pada status perdarahan (BOP) (p = 0,399), rerata kedalaman poket (PD) (p = 0,365), maupun rerata kehilangan perlekatan jaringan periodontal (CAL) (p = 0,179). Tingkat pendidikan dan karakteristik wilayah tempat tinggal berpengaruh terhadap kondisi jaringan periodontal (BOPdan PD) pada populasi lanjut usia, sehingga aspek tersebut perlu dipertimbangkan dalam perencanaan intervensi pencegahan penyakit periodontal pada lanjut usia.

Abstract

Introduction: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory condition of the tooth-supporting tissue. P. gingivalis, which produces virulence factors, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS), is the main pathogenic driver of periodontitis. However, the interaction between the innate immune system and periodontal pathogens in hyperlipidemia remains unclear. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a high-cholesterol diet (HCD) on macrophage activity in P. gingivalis LPS-induced periodontitis. Methods: Twenty-eight male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups (n=7 rats each group): LPS-HCD, saline-HCD, LPS-basal diet (LPS-BD), and saline-BD. HCD group had been being feeding by high cholesterol diet (1% cholesterol (w/w) and 0.5% cholic acid (w/w)) for 30 days before were injected with 0.2 ml of P. gingivalis ATCC 3277 LPS (LPS-HCD group) and saline (saline-HCD group). The other two groups had been being feeding by normal basal diet for 30 days before were injected with 0.2 ml of P. gingivalis ATCC 3277 LPS (LPS-BD group) and saline (saline-BD group). Rats were sacrificed and lower jaws were harvested and embedded in paraffin. Paraffin section of lower right and left incisor were deparaffinized, rehydrated, and stained with hematoxylin & eosin (H&E). The total number of macrophages was counted using a light microscope at a magnification of 400× from 10 fields of view. Results: The number of macrophages in the LPS-HCD group was the highest compare to LPS- BD, saline-HCD, and saline-BD groups. In addition, LPS-BD group had higher number of macrophage than saline-BD group which had the lowest number of macrophages. Conclusion: HCD and P. gingivalis LPS-induced periodontitis can contribute to increasing of macrophage activity in periodontitis. Thus, HCD itself can enhance the process of inflammation in periodontitis.
