About this study

Official title: Evaluation Of Gingival Crevicular Fluid And Salivary Ferritin, Alkaline Phosphatase And Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 Levels Of Individuals With Different Periodontal Diseases

The aim of this clinical study was to determine the levels of ferritin, alkaline phosphatase and matrix metalloproteinase-8 in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and saliva samples were collected from 60 systemically healthy, non-smoker periodontitis (P group, n = 20), gingivitis (G group, n = 20) and periodontally healthy individuals (S group, n = 20) and all clinical parameters were recorded for all groups at baseline. GCF and serum samplings and clinical records were also repeated at 1st and 3rd months visitsfor only P group. Ferritin, MMP8, and ALP levels in samples were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

What participants receive

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

  • GCF and saliva obtainingDiagnostic test

    The patient was asked to sit upright and tilt his/her head forward to collect saliva samples. İn this way, unstimulated saliva was allowed to accumulate in the floor of the mouth. The accumulated saliva was collected in a sterile container. It was then transferred to a propylene tube. The tubes were centrifuged and the clear part at the top of the tube was taken with a sterile syringe and transferred to a different propylene tube with 0.5 ml in each tube. Also, 4 samples of gingival crevicular fluid, 1 from each quadrant of the patient's jaw, were collected by means of paper strips and put into propylene tube. Tubes were stored at -80ºC until the day of analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GCF and saliva obtaining in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by Izmir Katip Celebi 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 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2024. 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?

The total amount of Ferritin in GCF and saliva (time frame: 24 hours after taking the clinical measurements at the first visit). 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 21 Aug 2024.
