About this study

Osteocalcin levels can be measured Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). Changes in osteocalcin levels can provide important information about the status of bone metabolism and bone remodeling. The levels of this markers in GCF can provide information about the status of bone remodeling in the surrounding bone tissue in periodontal affected teeth.

Read the detailed description

Osteocalcin levels can be measured using a blood test or by analyzing the levels of osteocalcin in urine or saliva. Changes in osteocalcin levels can provide important information about the status of bone metabolism and bone remodeling. Osteocalcin has been found to be present in Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), along with other bone metabolism markers such as alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase. The levels of these markers in GCF can provide information about the status of bone remodeling in the surrounding bone tissue. Orthodontic tooth movement is influenced by the remodelling ability of surrounding bone and soft tissue, such as PDL and gingiva. Bone remodelling occurs in coordination, requiring coupling of bone formation after resorption. Orthodontic force induces an aseptic inflammatory response, involving cytokines and chemokines. . Increased levels of osteocalcin in body fluids indicate abnormal bone turnover activity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing measure Osteocalcin level in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by Faculty of Dental Medicine for Girls at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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 28 Nov 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 Egypt. 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?

Osteocalcin levels in gingival crevicular fluid before and during orthodontic tooth movement (time frame: at baseline, then after 3 months and after 6 month). 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 28 Nov 2023.
