Trial summary

Periodontal diseases are chronic diseases that occur as a result of a violation of the balance between microbial dental plaque and the host response. Gingivitis is a disease characterized by inflammation of the gingiva that occurs in one or more areas without loss of attachments.1 in periodontitis, an inflammatory… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Usak University Faculty of Dentistry

Periodontal diseases are chronic diseases that occur as a result of a violation of the balance between microbial dental plaque and the host response. Gingivitis is a disease characterized by inflammation of the gingiva that occurs in one or more areas without loss of attachments.1 in periodontitis, an inflammatory event that begins in the gingiva along with gingivitis spreads to the periodontal ligament, alveolar bone and soft tissues that support the tooth, causing the destruction of these structures.2 Cytokines are low molecular weight proteins that participate in the initial and active stages of inflammation and immunity. In periodontal disease pathogenesis, cytokine response has been reported to play a very critical role in determining disease progression.3 IL-1beta and IL-6 are key cytokines in chronic inflammatory diseases and have the potential to initiate bone loss and tissue destruction seen in periodontal disease.4the purpose of this study; it is to determine the degree of inflammation and periodontal destruction by determining the levels of IL-1beta and IL-6 cytokines in the gingival crevicular fluid of periodontal healthy and diseased individuals.

Read the detailed description

Periodontal measurement were done at 6 sites per tooth After clinical evaluation, individuals were divided into 3 groups

  1. Healthy control groups: clinically healthy gingiva
  2. Gingivitis groups: BOP score of 10% or greater and PD≤3mm
  3. Periodontitis groups:

AL ≥5 mm, PD≥6 mm and tooth loss due to periodontitis of ≤4. GCF samples were collected using strips.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis, run by Uşak University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 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 4 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Measurement of IL-1Beta level (time frame: GCF was taken within 1 week after clinical examination). The study lists 2 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 4 Nov 2022.
