NCT05680441

Brief Summary

The study aimed to investigate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of possible novel biomarkers Annexin-A1 (ANX A1), Carbonic anhydrase- 1 (CA I), and Elongation Factor-1 Gamma (EF1-Ɣ) in health along with different periodontal diseases. In total, 80 systemically healthy individuals were included in this study; 20 with periodontitis stage 3 grade B , 20 with periodontitis stage 3 grade C (P-Stage III/C), 19 with gingivitis, and 21 with clinically healthy periodontium. Probing depth, clinical attachment level, plaque index, and papillary bleeding index were recorded. GCF ANX A1, CA I and EF1-Ɣ levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Receiver operating characteristics curve was used for estimating the under the curve.

Study Arms (4)

Healty group

The controls/Healthy group were the individuals with well-maintained oral hygiene without no periodontal disease history or symptoms with a probing pocket depth (PPD) of ≤3 mm and bleeding on probing (BOP) of (+) ≤10.

Other: Peirodontal clinical measurements and gingival crevicular fluid sampling

Periodontitis stage 3 grade B

Stage III periodontitis patients had at least 4 interdental sites clinical attachment level (CAL)\> 5 mm due to periodontitis, radiographic bone loss reaching to the mid-third of the root or beyond, teeth loss less than 4 teeth due to periodontitis. These patients were graded according to the bone loss%/age index (Grade B, 0.25-1.00).

Other: Peirodontal clinical measurements and gingival crevicular fluid sampling

Periodontitis stage 3 grade C

Stage III periodontitis patients had at least 4 interdental sites clinical attachment level (CAL)\> 5 mm due to periodontitis, radiographic bone loss reaching to the mid-third of the root or beyond, teeth loss less than 4 teeth due to periodontitis.Since the bone loss (%)/age values were \>1.0, all periodontitis patients were considered grade C.

Other: Peirodontal clinical measurements and gingival crevicular fluid sampling

Gingivitis

Only generalized gingivitis patients were included in this study. Individuals presenting with a BOP≥30% and PPD≤3 mm without radiographic bone loss and attachment loss were considered to have gingivitis.

Other: Peirodontal clinical measurements and gingival crevicular fluid sampling

Interventions

The clinical periodontal examination of the healthy and periodontitis subjects consisted of plaque index (PI), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and bleeding on probing (BOP) recorded. CAL was calculated by adding GR to the PPD values. Averages for full mouth PPD, CAL, and the percentage of sites with BOP were calculated for each subject. A single calibrated examiner (VO) conducted a full mouth periodontal examination of all participants.
