Abstract Background. In recent years, @entity2520 has been related to a large number of @entity74 . Objective. To study the possible relationship between @entity2520 and high levels of D-dimer in a group of @entity1 with @entity1211 . Materials and methods. A study was made of 142 @entity1 diagnosed with unprovoked @entity1211 . All @entity1 underwent oral examination consecutively and randomly. Finally, two groups were obtained: (a) @entity1 with @entity2520 (n = 71); and (b) @entity1 without @entity2520 (n = 71). All @entity1 were subjected to periodontal study, with evaluation of the number of teeth, bleeding index, gingival index, simplified oral hygiene index, community periodontal index of treatment needs, clinical attachment level, probe depth, number of pockets >= 4 mm, number of pockets >= 6 mm. The D-dimer values were evaluated in both groups. Results. D-dimer values were higher in the study group than the control group, with statistically significant differences (p = 0.010). Conclusions. A relationship is observed between the presence of @entity2520 and high D-dimer levels. @entity1 with @entity1211 could have more risk of a new @entity1031 episode.

@entity2520 as a risk factor of recurrence of XXXX : a prospective study.
