Abstract

Inadequate antioxidant balance may play a role in the excessive tissue breakdown in periodontitis. Because aggressive periodontitis (AgP) not only differs from chronic periodontitis (CP) in terms of clinical manifestations, this study investigates whether the salivary levels of glutathione reductase (GR) may be linked with periodontal status. Saliva samples from patients with CP (n = 121), patients with AgP (n = 18), and healthy controls (n = 69) were collected. Periodontal status was assessed by criteria based on probing depth, clinical attachment level, and extent and severity of periodontal breakdown. GR salivary levels were analyzed by spectrophotometry. The association among GR concentration and CP or AgP was analyzed individually and adjusted for confounding using multivariate binary logistic regression models. GR levels not only differed significantly between the two periodontitis groups, being significantly greater in patients with AgP, but also were significantly greater than those observed in healthy controls. Synchronously, positive significant correlations between salivary GR concentration and clinical parameters were observed. After binary logistic regression analysis, both GR salivary levels ≥15.38 and ≥24.20 mU/m...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
