About this study

Official title: The Effects of Non -Surgical Periodontal Therapy on Glycemic Control and Periodontal Health in Diabetic Patients With Periodontitis (Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial)

Is the non-surgical periodontal therapy can improve glycemic control in type 2 diabetic patients with chronic periodontitis?

Read the detailed description

The aim of the present study was to monitor the clinical outcomes and the metabolic response of non-surgical periodontal therapy in patients with chronic periodontitis and uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.

Regarding clinical and metabolic parameters at baseline, no differences were displayed between two groups. However, at 3-months follow-up period the patients within a test group were demonstrated better clinical outcomes than patients in a control group

Being tested
amoxicillin 500mg and metronidazole 400mg
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing amoxicillin 500mg and metronidazole 400mg in people with Chronic Periodontitis, Generalized, run by Taibah 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 21 Oct 2019. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) (time frame: 3 months). 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 21 Oct 2019.
