NCT04417322

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to analyze the association between serum A.actinomycetemcomitans antibodies in patients with periodontitis. Furthermore, the objective was to determine if the periodontitis influenced serum IgG A.actinomycetemcomitans antibodies levels

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

53 patients with periodontitis and 48 healthy subjects (HS) were enrolled in the present study. Enrolled patients were examined and characterized for clinical and blood samples analysis, andA.actinomycetemcomitans antibodies were expressed and evaluated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units (EU).

You may qualify if:

  • Presence of at least 15 teeth
  • CP with a minimum of 40% of sites with a clinical attachment level (CAL)
  • ≥2mm and probing depth (PD) ≥4mm;
  • Presence of at least ≥2 mm of crestal alveolar bone loss verified on digital periapical radiographs
  • Presence of ≥40% sites with bleeding on probing (BOP)

You may not qualify if:

  • Intake of contraceptives
  • Intake of immunosuppressive or anti-inflammatory drugs throughout the last three months prior to the study
  • Status of pregnancy or lactation
  • Previous history of excessive drinking
  • Allergy to local anaesthetic
  • Intake of drugs that may potentially determine gingival hyperplasia such as Hydantoin, Nifedipine, Cyclosporin A or similar drugs.
