Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • changes in the severity of Erectile Dysfunction

    changes in the severity of Erectile Dysfunction diagnosed by International Index of Erectile Dysfunction between test and control groups. Subjects with scores \> 25 were assessed as men with normal sexual function while those with scores ≤ 25 were diagnosed as patients with erectile dysfunction.severe with a score from 6 to 10, moderate (11-16) and mild (17-25)

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • changes in mean values of TNF-α in serum.Quantitative assessment of TNF-α in serum was done by a commercially available kit (Ray Bio Human TNF-α Enzyme Immunoassay),and was expressed as pg/mL.

    3 months

  • changes in mean values of TNF-α in saliva

    3 momths

  • changes in mean values of Clinical attachment level

    3 months

Study Arms (2)

test group

EXPERIMENTAL

Non-surgical periodontal treatment consisted of oral hygiene instructions (OHI), single session full-mouth scaling and root planing (SRP)

Procedure: Non surgical periodontal therapy

control group

NO INTERVENTION

no periodontal treatment was performed during the follow-up period in the control group.

Interventions

single session full-mouth scaling and root planing

Masking Details
Statistical software (STATA 13.1, Stata Corp, Texas, USA) was used for random and equal stratification of the participants according to their mean values of IIEF, and this identify to which group the patients were enrolled, using 1:1 allocation ratio.

Intervention Model
PARALLEL
Model Details: After periodontal and medical screening, all eligible patients will informed of potential risks, study objective, and benefits of their participation in this study. Non-surgical periodontal treatment consisted of oral hygiene instructions (OHI), single session full-mouth scaling and root planing (SRP) that will be performed by the same periodontist using Gracey curettes (Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL, USA) and ultrasonic apparatus (Cavitron Select SPC, Dentsply professional, New York, USA) for all participants within a test group at baseline and after three months for patients in a control group because of ethical reasons. Therefore, no periodontal treatment will be performed during the follow-up period in control group.
