Hyperlipidemia, Periodontitis, Gingivitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
GINGIVAL CREVICULAR FLUID MALONDIALDEHYDE, PROTEIN CARBONYL AND TOTAL ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY IN PATIENTS WITH PERIODONTAL DISEASE AND HYPERLIPIDEMIA
we hypothesized that hyperlipidemia as an unfavourable levels of lipoprotein subfractions have deleterious impact on the development of periodontal infection by altering oxidative stres status of periodontal tissues. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate i) effect of hyperlipidemia on oxidative change in GCF content, ie. MDA, PC and TAOC levels, in patients with different periodontal status,

Primary | Gingival Crevicular Fluid level of malondialdehyde (MDA) as a marker of lipid oxidation. | Malondialdehyde levels in gingival crevicular fluid as measured an oxidative stress marker in lipid. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is the most specific and the most often used molecule in the measurement of biological lipid oxidation | 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment. | Yes |
Primary | Protein Carbonyl level in gingival crevicular fluid as a marker of protein oxidation | Protein carbonylation is another nonenzymatic oxidative post-translational modification and assesed by protein carbonyl tissue content that is often used as a biomarker of oxidative stress. | 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment. | Yes |
Primary | Total Antioxidant Capacity levels in gingival crevicular fluid as a marker of antioxidant status | Contrary to oxidant mediators, TAOC provides an extensive overview of the antioxidant status of the individuals and how well these antioxidants are able to protect host cells during periods of oxidative stress. Due to the potential synergistic effects of different antioxidant molecules, the measurement of TAOC can provide a more accurate and extensive assessment of antioxidant status rather than the separate measurement of individual antioxidant molecules | 8-10 am on the day following periodontal status assessment. | Yes |
