About this study

Official title: Dentine Sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) Quantification for Root Resorption Prediction Using Multivariate Versus Univariate Spectrum Analysis

This study was conducted after obtaining approval from UKM Research Ethics Committee. Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF) from Orthodontic and non-orthodontic patients was collected with the consent of patients to detect Dentine sialophosphoprotein. Spectrometry analysis of Gingival Crevicular Fluid was conducted in collaboration with MIMOS Berhad.

Read the detailed description

Thirty patients were recruited having met the following inclusion criteria of (1) good general health, (2) good periodontal health, (3) caries-free, (4) good oral hygiene. The subjects were divided into 3 groups based on a radiographic assessment on the level of root resorption; normal (no root resorption), mild (less than 2 mm), and severe (more than 2 mm). The GCF samples were taken from the permanent central incisors of untreated subjects in the normal control group (n=14), while in the mild group, samples were collected from the permanent central incisors with mild root resorption (<2 mm) in patients undergoing active orthodontic treatment after 6 months with radiographic evidence (mild group, n=5). Child patients with severe root resorption (>2 mm) were those with primary second molars undergoing physiological root resorption (severe group, n=11). The GCF samples were collected from the mesial and the distal gingival crevicular sulcus of the involved teeth using gingival fluid collection strips (Periopaper, Oraflow, Smithtown, N.Y.). The paper strips were placed within the sulcus (intrasulcular method) approximately 1 to 2 mm into the gingival sulcus and left in situ for 60 seconds. Every sample collection was taken 3 times at the same site with one-minute resting intervals to allow GCF to be replenished into the gingival sulcus.

What is being measured

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

  1. value of wavelength of DSPP in GCF from non-orthodontic patient with no root resorption

    The absorbance values at a single wavelength at 450 nm

    Measured: 1 month

  2. value of wavelength of DSPP in GCF from orthodontic patient with mild to moderate root resorption

    The absorbance values at a single wavelength at 450 nm

    Measured: 1 month

  3. value of wavelength of DSPP in GCF from child patient severe root resorption

    The absorbance values at a single wavelength at 450 nm

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Root Resorption, run by National University of Malaysia at 1 site in Malaysia.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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 15 Oct 2021. 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 Malaysia. 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?

value of wavelength of DSPP in GCF from non-orthodontic patient with no root resorption (time frame: 1 month). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05077878, 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 15 Oct 2021.
