About this study

It has been stated that Sirtuin-6 (SIRT6) play a important role in regulation of inflammation, energy metabolism, homeostasis and apoptosis, and SIRT6 may be assosiciated with many diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate saliva and serum SIRT6, Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) and Caspase-8 (CASP8) levels in correlation with periodontal clinical status in patients with periodontitis and healthy subjects

Read the detailed description

20 patients with Stage III Grade B periodontitis (P) and 20 periodontally healthy individuals (control;C) were included in this study. Clinical periodontal parameters were measured. Saliva and serum levels of SIRT6, LXA4 and CASP8 were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

What participants receive

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

  • Saliva and serum samplingOther

    Saliva were collected to analyze the selected markers as unstimulated samples during the early hours of the day. The saliva was centrifuged and then transferred into Eppendorf tubes.

    Venous puncture was performed after saliva collection and 10 mL of blood samples were collected by qualified staff (MFD) from each participant. Saliva and serum were then stored at -80 °C until analysis.

Salivary and serum SIRT6, LPXA4 and CASP8 observationExperimentalSaliva and serum samples obtained for each patient were used for cytokine analysis. Prepared samples were analyzed for Lipoxin A4 (LXA4), Caspase 8 (CASP8) and Sirtuin-6 (SIRT6) using commercial ELISA kits (Elabscience, Houston, Texas, USA and Bioaasay Technology Laboratory (BT-Lab), Shanghai, China, respectively) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The detection limits of ELISA kits were 0.78 - 50ng/ml for LXA4, 0.16 - 10ng/ml for CASP8 and 0.1- 40 ng/ml for SIRT6.
Receives: Other: Saliva and serum sampling

What is being measured

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

  1. Pocket probing depth

    Measurement of the depth of a sulcus or periodontal pocket determined by measuring distance from a gingival margin to the base of the sulcus or pocket with a calibrated periodontal probe.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Clinical attachment level

    Clinical attachment level (or loss, CAL) is a more accurate indicator of the periodontal support around a tooth than probing depth alone. CAL is measured from a fixed point on the tooth that does not change, the CEJ.

    To calculate CAL, two measurements are needed: distance from the gingival margin to the CEJ and probing depth.

    In recession: probing depth (+) gingival margin to the CEJ (add). In tissue overgrowth: probing depth (-) gingival margin to the CEJ (subtract)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Bleeding on probing

    referring to bleeding that is induced by gentle manipulation of the tissue at the depth of the gingival sulcus, or interface between the gingiva and a tooth.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Saliva and serum samples processing and analyses

    Saliva and serum samples obtained for each patient were used for cytokine analysis. Prepared samples were analyzed for Lipoxin A4 (LXA4), Caspase 8 (CASP8) and Sirtuin-6 (SIRT6) using commercial ELISA kits

    (Elabscience, Houston, Texas, USA and Bioaasay Technology Laboratory (BT-Lab), Shanghai, China, respectively) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Saliva and serum sampling in people with Periodontitis and Diagnose Disease, run by Istanbul Medipol University Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 11 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 23 Oct 2023. 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?

Pocket probing depth (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05417061, 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 23 Oct 2023.
