  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Patients aged 6 to 14 years with childhood rheumatism
  • Patients without bilateral congenital germ deficiency in the lower teeth

What participants receive

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

  • Panoramic rad.Radiation

    In the study, digital panoramic x-rays of the patients will be evaluated and dental age estimation with Willems method and mandibular bone morphometric measurements will be made.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dental Age Estimation

    The study group will be comprised of newly diagnosed pediatric patients who applied to Umraniye Training and Research Hospital Division of Pediatric Rheumatology and whose treatment is ongoing, and the control group will be composed of pediatric patients without systemic disease who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Pedodontics. In the study, digital panoramic x-rays of the patients will be evaluated and dental age estimation with Willems method will be made.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mandibular bone morphometric measurements

    The study group will be comprised of newly diagnosed pediatric patients who applied to Umraniye Training and Research Hospital Division of Pediatric Rheumatology and whose treatment is ongoing, and the control group will be composed of pediatric patients without systemic disease who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Pedodontics.For mandibular bone morphometric measurements, fractal analysis, that is a mathematical method describing and analyzing complex shapes and structural patterns such as the bone tissue, will be used in order to assess the bone density, using Image J software. A region of interest will be selected from panoramic radiographs. Image processing will be applied to correct for lightning irregularity, and box-counting method will be used to calculate a fractal dimension.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Panoramic rad. in people with Childhood Rheumatic Diseases, run by Marmara 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 6 Dec 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?

Dental Age Estimation (time frame: 3 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 6 Dec 2023.
