About this study

Official title: Effect of Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy on Serum Asprosin in Patients With Stable Angina

This study aims to evaluate the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum asprosin levels in patients with stable angina and periodontitis. Asprosin is a novel metabolic biomarker reported to have potential protective roles in cardiovascular diseases and inflammatory processes. The study also investigates the relationship between periodontal parameters and serum asprosin levels before and after periodontal therapy.

Read the detailed description

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the destruction of the tooth-supporting tissues and has been associated with increased systemic inflammation and cardiovascular diseases. Stable angina, a clinical manifestation of coronary artery disease, is closely linked to inflammatory and metabolic pathways. Increasing evidence suggests that periodontal inflammation may contribute to cardiovascular pathology through systemic dissemination of inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress mechanisms.

Asprosin is a recently identified adipokine secreted mainly from white adipose tissue and is involved in glucose metabolism, inflammatory regulation, and cardiovascular homeostasis. Previous studies have reported altered serum asprosin levels in patients with atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and periodontitis. However, the effect of periodontal therapy on serum asprosin levels in patients with stable angina has not yet been clinically investigated.

In this clinical study, 60 individuals will be allocated into three groups: healthy controls, periodontitis patients, and patients with stable angina and periodontitis. Non-surgical periodontal therapy will be performed in periodontitis groups, while supragingival scaling and oral hygiene instructions will be provided for controls. Clinical periodontal parameters and serum asprosin levels will be evaluated at baseline and at 3-month follow-up using ELISA analysis.

The study aims to determine whether periodontal therapy may influence serum asprosin levels and to evaluate the possible relationship between periodontal inflammation and metabolic-inflammatory pathways in cardiovascular disease. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first clinical study evaluating the effect of periodontal therapy on serum asprosin levels in patients with stable angina.

What participants receive

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

  • Non-surgical periodontal therapy (scaling and root planing)Procedure or surgery

    Non-surgical periodontal therapy will include full-mouth scaling and root planing performed using hand instruments and/or ultrasonic devices to remove supra- and subgingival plaque and calculus.

  • Non-surgical periodontal therapy (Professional dental cleaning)Procedure or surgery

    Supragingival calculus and plaque removal with standardized oral hygiene instruction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in serum asprosin levels after non-surgical periodontal therapy

    Serum asprosin concentrations (ng/mL) will be measured using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit at baseline and 3 months following non-surgical periodontal therapy.

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non-surgical periodontal therapy (scaling and root planing) and Non-surgical periodontal therapy (Professional dental cleaning) in people with Stable Angina Pectoris and Periodontitis, run by Ondokuz Mayıs 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 4 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 27 Oct 2026. 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?

Change in serum asprosin levels after non-surgical periodontal therapy (time frame: Baseline and 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07591844, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Oct 2026.
