Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to: Part 1 - Baseline Comparisons The primary objective of Part 1 is to: Investigate the association between SLE and a measures of vascular health (brachial artery flow-mediated dilatyation) in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and a healthy periodontium compared to patients with SLE and Periodontitis (PD) Part 2 - Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial To assess the effect of Periodontal Treatment (PT) on the endothelial function in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD. Secondary Secondary objectives include: Part 1 - Baseline Comparisons The secondary objectives of Part 1 are to investigate the association of:

  • Inflammatory biomarkers in saliva and blood and periodontal status in patients with SLE and PD and those with SLE and a healthy periodontium
  • The oral microbiome using plaque analysis and periodontal status in patients with SLE and PD and those with SLE and a healthy periodontium Part ParPa Part 2 - Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluate the effect of PT on biomarkers of SLE disease severity/progression in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD. Evaluate the effect of PT on the B cell panel in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD. Evaluate effect of PT on the systemic inflammatory and oxidative profile of a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD. Evaluate effect of PT on skin lesions in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To measure the effect of periodontal treatment on SLE patients

    Endothelial function/dysfunction (vessel wall elasticity) will be observed in the population of SLE patients (30) who will undergo periodontal treatment (before and after) by using Flow mediated dilatation (FMD) which is an ultra-sound scan of brachial artery in visit 2, 4 and 6).

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • To measure the effect of PT on biomarkers of SLE disease severity/progression in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD.

    2 years

  • To measure the effect of Periodontal Treatment on the B-cell panel in a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD.

    2 Years

  • To measure the effect of Periodontal Treatment on the systemic inflammatory and oxidative profile of a population of patients suffering from SLE and PD.
