Table 2 presents the comparison of bacterial counts of periodontal pathogens with the onset of fever. The Tf-log in the group with the onset of fever was significantly higher than that in the group without the onset of fever (4.2 (1.9–5.3) vs. 3.5 (0–5.6), p = 0.044), but not Pg-log or Td-log. The gene discussed is TF; the disease is Fever.
