DESIGN AND METHODS: Seventeen type 2 diabetic patients with periodontal disease (DM), 17 otherwise healthy periodontally diseased patients (PD) and 17 systemically and periodontally healthy control subjects (H) were enrolled. Clinical periodontal measurements were recorded at six sites/tooth. GCF samples were analyzed by ELISA. Data were tested by statistical tests.
RESULTS: DM group revealed lower IL-1ss levels than PD group (p<0.01). PGE(2), t-PA and PAI-2 levels were similar in DM and PD groups (p>0.05). PGE(2), t-PA levels were higher in DM and PD groups than H group (p<0.05). PAI-2 level was higher in DM group than H group (p<0.05). GCF total amount of PGE(2) in DM group exhibited significant correlations with all clinical periodontal measurements (p<0.05).
CONCLUSION: Type 2 diabetes in this study seems not to increase GCF levels of the evaluated inflammatory mediators. | | Language | ENG | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
