Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • Men only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Thirty-nine male, systemically healthy adult individuals (35-55 years old) and 39 dental implants were recruited for the present study. The same implant system was utilized for the treatments and the clinical treatment procedures were completed by the same two clinicians at the Ondokuz Mayis University Dental Faculty between 2011 and 2013.

Who may be able to join

  • The main inclusion criteria for patient selection were as follows:
  • Compliance with systematic maintenance care;
  • Adult, non-smoker, systemically healthy
  • Not using any medicament for the last 6 months ;
  • Partially dentated patient treated with implant-supported metal ceramic full crowns and/or fixed partial dentures
  • As the study was split-mouth designed, in each individual at least one implant and one matching tooth in the same mouth symmetrically representing the same tooth group (premolars/molars);
  • A single type of metal ceramic implant restoration that is functional for at least 1 year; and a matching tooth with no dental or endodontic restorations.

Who cannot join

  • Medical history of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes mellitus, or cardiovascular disease and any other systemic disease affecting lipid metabolism (i.e. impaired glucose tolerance, metabolic syndrome);
  • Compromised immune system;
  • Pregnancy, menopause, or lactation;
  • Ongoing drug therapy that might affect the clinical characteristics of periodontitis and lipid metabolism;
  • Dental treatment during the 6 months prior to data collection.

About this study

Official title: Neurogenic Inflammatory Response in Peri-implant and Periodontal Diseases Assessed by Biochemical Analysis of the Neuropeptides in Gingival Crevicular Fluid.

Regulatory effects of some neuropeptides substance-P (SP), neurokinin-A (NKA), calcitonin gene-linked peptide (CGRP) and neuropeptide-Y (NPY) )on inflammatory responses in periodontal disease has been described; however, the impact of neuropeptide levels are not clearly defined in healthy and diseased peri-implant tissues.ın order to evaluate the situation, thirty-nine implants that have been loaded over the past 12 months and their symmetrically matching teeth were evaluated using a split-mouth study design. Clinical periodontal examinations included the Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level parameters were determined. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)/Periimplant sulcular fluid (PISF) samples were collected, and the levels of the neuropeptides were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Correlations between GCF/PISF neuropeptide levels and the clinical examination parameters were evaluated in the peri-implant/periodontal soft tissues.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri-implant sulcular fluid(PISF) collectionDiagnostic test

    GCF/PISF samples were collected using periopaper strips. Prior to sample collection, each site was gently air-dried, all supragingival plaque was removed, and the area was carefully isolated to prevent samples from being contaminated by saliva.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gingival crevicular fluid/peri-implant sulcular fluid Level of Substance-P

    Substance-P (SP) is a neuropeptide of the tachykinin family and marker of neurogenic inflammation.

    Measured: 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment.

  2. Gingival crevicular fluid/peri-implant sulcular fluid Level of neurokinin-A

    Neurokinin-A is a neuropeptide of the tachykinin family and marker of neurogenic inflammation.

    Measured: 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment.

  3. Gingival crevicular fluid/peri-implant sulcular fluid Level of Calcitonin gene-related peptide

    Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), another neuropeptide derived from peptidergic nerves and a marker of neurogenic inflammation.

    Measured: 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neurogenic Inflammation and Periimplant Diseases, run by Ondokuz Mayıs 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 5 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 13 Sep 2018. 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?

Gingival crevicular fluid/peri-implant sulcular fluid Level of Substance-P (time frame: 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment.). 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 13 Sep 2018.
