Study population: A total of 240 subjects were examined among patients who attended to the Department of Periodontology, Marmara University or the Turkish Heart Foundation and had their plasma lipid values determined within the last 3 months. Out of 240, 160 subjects (57 male, 103 female, age range 35-65 years) eligible for this study were selected.

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects having no periodontal treatment within previous 6 months,
  • number of natural teeth ≥ 10,
  • no history of cancer and systemic disease that affects lipid levels or periodontium,
  • no history of medical treatment for hyperlipidemia, BMI< 30 kg/m2,
  • no pregnancy,
  • no history of systemic antibiotic treatment within previous 3 months,
  • no smoking.

Who cannot join

  • patients with history of systemic disease that affects lipid metabolism or periodontal disease
  • history of medical treatment for hyperlipidemia
  • pregnancy, lactation or hormone replacement therapy at the time of study
  • use of any other drug known to affect lipid metabolism or periodontal disease
  • systemic infection or any history of systemic antibiotic treatment in previous 3 months
  • smokers as well as ex-smokers

About this study

The aim of present study is to investigate any relationship between hyperlipidemia and periodontal disease regarding the periodontal parameters and plasma lipid parameters, along with age, gender, brushing habit, body mass index, dietary habit, physical activity, alcohol consumption.

In this cross sectional study, a total of 160 individuals were divided into two groups based on their metabolic status: hyperlipidemic group (n=97) and normolipidemic group (n=63). Plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) clinical parameters and community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN) scores were measured. Triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels had been determined previously during individuals routine systemic examinations. Daily brushing habits and interdental cleaning together with dietary habits, alcohol consumption and physical activity levels were also recorded.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Triglyceride (TG)

    Subjects with plasma TG or TC levels > 200 mg/dl and LDL-C levels > 130 mg/dl were included in the hyperlipidemic group, while the normolipidemic group comprised of patients with plasma TG or TC levels below the aforementioned limits

    Measured: day 0

  2. Total cholesterol (TC)

    Subjects with plasma TG or TC levels > 200 mg/dl and LDL-C levels > 130 mg/dl were included in the hyperlipidemic group, while the normolipidemic group comprised of patients with plasma TG or TC levels below the aforementioned limits

    Measured: day 0

  3. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)

    Subjects with plasma TG or TC levels > 200 mg/dl and LDL-C levels > 130 mg/dl were included in the hyperlipidemic group, while the normolipidemic group comprised of patients with plasma TG or TC levels below the aforementioned limits

    Measured: day 0

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Plaque index

    The measurement of the state of oral hygiene based on recording dental plaque accumulation

    Measured: day 0

  2. Gingival index

    An assessment level of gingival health and inflammation

    Measured: day 0

  3. Bleeding on probing

    A sign of gingival inflammation were assessed on the buccal, lingual, mesial and distal sites of each tooth

    Measured: day 0

  4. Probing depth

    The distance from the gingival margin to bottom of the pocket with using 0.5 mm diameter periodontal probe at mesiobuccal, midbuccal, distobuccal, distolingual, midlingual and mesiolingual sites of each tooth

    Measured: day 0

  5. Clinical attachment level

    The distance between the cemento-enamel junction and bottom of the pocket

    Measured: day 0

  6. Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs score

    These scores are used to represent healthy periodontium, bleeding after probing, dental calculus detected by probing, 4-5 mm deep pockets and deep pockets ≥ 6 mm, respectively.

    Measured: day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperlipidemia, Periodontal Disease, run by Marmara University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Triglyceride (TG) (time frame: day 0). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jul 2016.
