We examined whether gains in body weight, waist circumference, and arm fat area are associated with periodontitis progression in 893 non-diabetic men followed for up to four decades in the prospective VA Dental Longitudinal Study. Probing pocket depth (PPD) was measured by calibrated examiners. Repeated-measures generalized linear models estimated the mean cumulative numbers of teeth with PPD events (PPD &gt; 3 mm) at each dental examination and the slopes associated with increasing numbers of affected teeth over time. Means were adjusted for baseline PPD, education, and cigarette pack-years, and time-dependent values of age, mean plaque score, cigarette packs\/day, brushing, and flossing. Men who were overweight at baseline and gained weight most rapidly (&gt; 0.19 kg\/yr or ~15 lb during follow-up) had significantly more PPD events than men in the lowest tertile of weight gain (\u2264 -0.05 kg\/yr). Overweight men whose waist circumference increased &gt; 0.14\u20130.39 or &gt; 0.39 cm\/yr experienced more PPD events than men in the lowest tertile (\u2264 0.14 cm\/yr). Increase in arm fat area was associated with disease progression in normal-weight men. These results suggest that tracking adiposity changes with easily obtained anthropometric measures may help predict risk of periodontitis progression.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0022034512457372","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,8,15]],"date-time":"2012-08-15T20:16:49Z","timestamp":1345061809000},"page":"921-926","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Changes in Body Weight and Adiposity Predict Periodontitis Progression in Men"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Gorman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston University School of Medicine, 72 East Concord Street, Boston, MA 02118, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.K.","family":"Kaye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston University Henry M.
