简要总结
Both periodontitis and plaque psoriasis are non communicable chronic inflammatory diseases. They share genetic polymorphysms (IL-1, IL-6 e TNFalfa) and risk factors (smoking, diabetes, obesity), as well as a great resemblance in terms of pathophysiological pathways. In fact, they are both characterized by an hyperactivation of the innate immune response which induces an excessive production of cytokines such as IL-17/TNFalfa. While non-surgical periodontal therapy consists in the mechanical removal of supra and subgingival calculus, psoriasis treatment involves the administration of either systemic or biologic drugs. Evidence is scarce regarding the effectiveness of non-surgical periodontal therapy in ameliorating the clinical outcomes of plaque psoriasis. The biological plausibility relies on the important reduction of systemic inflammation caused by periodontal treatment, which could ameliorate psoriasis phenotype.

结局指标
主要结局
PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index)- 10 weeks
时间窗: PASI was registered 10 weeks after baseline.
A representative area of psoriasis is selected for each body region (head and neck, upper and lower limbs, trunk). The intensity of redness, thickness, and scaling of the psoriasis is assessed as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3), or very severe (4). The three intensity scores are added up for each of the four body regions to give subtotals A1, A2, A3, A4. Each subtotal is multiplied by the body surface area represented by that region. The higher the score, the worse psoriasis severity.
PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index)- Baseline
时间窗: PASI was registered at baseline.
