About this study

Official title: Effect of Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment on Plasma Fibrinogen, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1 and C-reactive Protein Levels in Cardiovascular Disease Patients With Periodontitis

The research question was to investigate whether non-surgical periodontal therapy could reduce cardiovascular risk markers in Coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.

Read the detailed description

CHD patients or non-CHD with or without periodontitis were included. They were provided with non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Periodontal parameters and cardiovascular risk markers were measured at baseline and 3 months and 6 months after NSPT.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Heart Disease and Periodontitis, run by Mahidol University at 3 sites in Thailand.

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 2 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 12 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

change in fibrinogen level between baseline and 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment (time frame: 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04305171, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Mar 2020.
