About this study

Official title: Taste Perception,Oral Health Status and Selectied Salivary Hormones in Relation to Body Mass Index Among Agroup of Iraqi Adolescent Girls.

the goal of the study is to test the effect of body mass index on adolesent Iraqi student girls by measuring salivary hormones (ghrelin,leptin,resistin)and measuring oral health by plague index score() and taste perception score () 90 female subject will be enrolled in this study between 16-17 years old,30 subjects with normal body weight ,30 subject overweight ,and 30 subject with obeiece group catogerize by body mass index according to age.

the methed of the study is by taking Saliva sample from the subject , taste perception score and oral health measure.

Being tested
body mass index for age

What participants receive

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

  • body mass index for ageDietary supplement

    different body mass index according to age (normal weight,overweight,obeiece)

What is being measured

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

  1. taste perception

    taste perception scale score(1-6) to measure 90 subject

    Measured: taste perception for 90 subject of different body mass index

  2. oral health status

    oral health status will be measured by plaque index score(1-3),gingival index score(1-3),and dental caries DMFT and DMFS .

    Measured: oral health status will be measured for 90 subject of different body mass index.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. salivary ghrelin hormone

    measure salivary ghrelin hormone of different body mass index of 90 subject to see if the body mass index effect on the salivary ghrelin hormon.

    Measured: Baseline :salivary collection for ghrelin , salivary leptin and salivary resistin in AL least two hours fasting for different body mass index subject

  2. salivary leptin hormone

    measure salivary leptin hormone of different body mass index of 90 subject to see if the body mass index effect on the salivary leptin hormon.

    Measured: Baseline :salivary collection for ghrelin , salivary leptin and salivary resistin in AL least two hours fasting for different body mass index subject

  3. salivary resistin hormone

    measure salivary resistin hormone of different body mass index of 90 subject to see if the body mass index effect on the salivary resistin hormon.

    Measured: Baseline :salivary collection for ghrelin , salivary leptin and salivary resistin in AL least two hours fasting for different body mass index subject
