Trial summary

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that causes destruction of periodontal tissues. IL-20, on the other hand, is known as a potent angiogenic, chemotactic, and pro-inflammatory cytokine associated with various chronic inflammatory disorders. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Determination of Levels of IL-20, TNF-α, IL1β/IL-10, RANKL/OPG and MMP8 in Serum and Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF) in Peridontally Healthy and Periodontitis Individuals

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that causes destruction of periodontal tissues. IL-20, on the other hand, is known as a potent angiogenic, chemotactic, and pro-inflammatory cytokine associated with various chronic inflammatory disorders. IL-20 has a significant role in the regulation of osteoclastogenesis and osteoblastogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of IL-20 on periodontal destruction.

In the study, a total of 60 participants were included, 30 of whom were systemically and periodontally healthy (control group) and 30 of whom were systemically healthy and had periodontitis (periodontitis group). GCF and serum samples were collected from the participants for biochemical analysis. ELISA method was used to determine IL-20, TNF-α, IL1β/IL-10, RANKL/OPG and MMP8 levels

control group (periodontally healthy)no attachment loss, probing pocket depth ≤ 3 mm, minimal bleeding on probing ≤ 10%, and no radiographic bone loss
Receives: Other: biochemical analysis

Receives: Other: biochemical analysis

What is being measured

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

  1. concentration of biochemical findings in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)

    IL-20, RANKL, OPG and RANKL/OPG values eveluated in GCF

    Measured: june 2022-june 2023

  2. concentration of biochemical findings in serum

    IL-20, RANKL, OPG, RANKL/OPG, MMP-8, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-10 and IL-1β/IL-10

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. value of periodontal clinical parameters

    plaque index (PI) (Silness \& Löe), gingival index (GI) (Silness \& Löe) and bleeding on probing index (BOP) of all natural teeth of the patients

    Measured: 1 year

  2. value of periodontal clinical parameters were measured in mm

    probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment loss (CAL) of all natural teeth of the patients

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis, run by Recep Tayyip Erdogan 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 1 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 19 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?

concentration of biochemical findings in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) (time frame: june 2022-june 2023). 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 19 Oct 2023.
