Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Ondokuz Mayıs University
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the concentrations of Visfatin, Fetuin-A and Sirtuin 1 in the gingival crevicular fluid and clinical periodontal parameters in diabetic and systemically healthy individuals and to determine whether non-surgical periodontal treatment had any effect on these biomarkers and periodontal clinical parameters at the end of a 3-month follow-up period. The hypothesis of our study is that gingival crevicular fluid Visfatin, Fetuin-A and Sirtuin 1 concentrations will change with non-surgical periodontal treatment in type 2 diabetic and systemically healthy individuals and that this change will be associated with diabetes and clinical parameters.

Detailed Description

Sixty-six patients were divided into six equal groups; group 1: systemically and periodontally healthy individuals, group 2: systemically healthy individuals with periodontitis, group 3: controlled type 2 diabetes and periodontally healthy individuals, group 4: controlled type 2 diabetes and periodontitis, group 5: uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and periodontally healthy individuals, group 6: uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and periodontitis. The study was planned as a randomized, single-blind, parallel design. Periodontal clinical parameters (Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing) were recorded clinically and concentrations of visfatin, fetuin-A and sirtuin 1 in gingival crevicular fluid were assessed biochemically. After baseline examinations, periodontal treatment was completed using a nonsurgical periodontal treatment protocol completed in 24 hours. Periodontal clinical parameters and gingival crevicular fluid were recorded at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment. Biochemical analysis and statistical evaluation were performed.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bleeding on probing index (BPI)Baseline to 3 months after treatment

BPI was increased in all periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes has no effect on BPI in periodontitis patients. BPI was reduced after NSPT.

Visfatin concentration in GCFBaseline to 3 months after treatment

Visfatin concentrations in GCF were increased in all periodontitis patients. In periodontal healthy patients with Type 2 diabetes visfatin concentrations in GCF were increased. Non-surgical periodontal treatment decreased the concentration of visfatin in GCF.

Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) quantityBaseline to 3 months after treatment

The amount of gingival crevicular fluid was not affected by periodontal status in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Clinical attachment level (CAL)Baseline to 3 months after treatment

CAL was increased in all periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes has no effect on CAL in periodontitis patients. CAL was reduced after NSPT.

Plaque index (PI)Baseline to 3 months after treatment

PI was increased in all periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes has no effect on PI in periodontitis patients. PI was reduced after non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT).

Gingival index (GI)Baseline to 3 months after treatment

GI was increased in all periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes has no effect on GI in periodontitis patients. GI was reduced after NSPT.

HbA1c level in blood plasmaBaseline to 3 months after treatment

NSPT reduced HbA1c levels of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Sirtuin 1 concentration in GCFBaseline to 3 months after treatment

In systemic healthy individuals, periodontitis decreased the concentration of sirtuin 1 in GCF. Type 2 diabetes increased sirtuin 1 concentration in GCF. In controlled type 2 diabetes patients with periodontitis sirtuin 1 concentrations in GCF were increased. In uncontrolled type 2 diabetes patients with periodontitis sirtuin 1 concentrations in GCF were decreased. Non-surgical periodontal treatment increased the concentration of sirtuin 1 in GCF.

Probable pocket depth (PPD)Baseline to 3 months after treatment

PPD was increased in all periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes has no effect on PPD in periodontitis patients. PPD was reduced after NSPT.

Fetuin-A concentration in GCFBaseline to 3 months after treatment

Fetuin-A concentrations in GCF were decreased in all periodontitis patients. In periodontal healthy patients with Type 2 diabetes fetuin-A concentrations in GCF were increased. Non-surgical periodontal treatment increased the concentration of fetuin-A in GCF.
