Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study is to evaluate the Visfatin levels in Gingival Crevicular Fluid in Association between Coronary Heart Disease and Chronic Periodontitis.
Materials and Methods: This matched case control study was conducted on 60 CHD patients and 60 controls. These participants were divided to four groups as follow: 1) patients with both CHD and CP (n=30), 2) patients with CHD and 
without CP (n=30), 3) patients with CP and without CHD (n=30), and 4) healthy subjects (n=30). The amount of visfatin in GCF samples of these participants were evaluated by 
Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).
Results: The amount of visfatin in GCF of CHD patients with CP and CP patients were significantly higher than healthy subjects (P<0.001).
Conclusion: Visfatin levels in GCF of CHD patients with CP and CP patients can help to better understand the probable inflammatory process of the CHD and CP
