Trial summary

Periodontal diseases are a public health burden in all countries. Hence, Periodontitis is the sixth-most prevalent disease in the world, the most common bone diseases in human and the primary cause for tooth loss in adults leading to significant economic and medical consequences.

About this study

Periodontal diseases are a public health burden in all countries. Hence, Periodontitis is the sixth-most prevalent disease in the world, the most common bone diseases in human and the primary cause for tooth loss in adults leading to significant economic and medical consequences. All disease biomarkers could help to stratify the general population with those at high risk of periodontitis and to enroll them in a rigorous prevention program. Advanced periodontitis has been shown to reduce the quality of life of patients and developing novel biological monitoring protocols will reduce the prevalence of advanced forms of the disease.

There are alot of research explaining the different types of inflammatory mediators that could be found in periodontitis patients. But there are a few research have been talking about lipoxin A4 as an inflammatory biomarker that could detect the effect of non surgical periodontal therapy effect on the periodontal health.

And the aim of the study is to assess the effect of this non surgical periodontal therapy on the periodontal health by assessing the concentration of this biomarker.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non surgical periodontal therapy in people with Inflammation and Periodontitis, run by University of Sharjah at 1 site in United Arab Emirates.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 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 United Arab Emirates. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Prof. Zahi BADRAN, PhD (+97165057353, zbadran@sharjah.ac.ae), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lipoxin A4 (time frame: 2 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 31 Jan 2023.
