Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: It is expected to evaluate that oxidative stress resulting from periodontitis can facilitate the development of pneumonia associated with mechanical ventilation. Verified by analysis of antioxidant system enzymes and oxidative stress.;Outcome found 1: It was observed that the increase in oxidative stress, caused by periodontitis, led to an imbalance in the antioxidant status, facilitating the development of pneumonia associated with mechanical ventilation. | — |
