About this study

Official title: A Comparative Evaluation in Pregnant Women of the Periodontal Condition and Low Birth Delivery Incidence

The objective of this study was the evaluation of periodontal condition in pregnant women and the effect of the treatment of periodontal disease upon low birth weight.

Read the detailed description

This research was carried out in the following three centers: Samsun Birth and Children's Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Dentistry of the University of Ondokuz Mayıs. 269 women in their first trimester were included in this study. Their ages ranged from 18-35 years, their height was above 150 cm and they have no history of any systemic disease. At the end of each trimester these measurements were performed: attachment level, probing depth, gingival index, plaque index, and bleeding on probing. According to the periodontal diagnosis the research population was divided into three groups: periodontally healthy women; periodontally diseased women, however rejection of treatment; periodontally diseased women, however acceptance of treatment.In this study one-way ANOVA, chi-square, conditional logistic regression analyses were used.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • collection of periodontal recordsOther

    1. Clinic attachment level
    2. Probing depth
    3. Gingival index
    4. Plaque index
    5. Bleeding on probing were performed in all groups. These measurements were performed at the end of each trimester.
  • pregnancy parametersOther

    Parameters such as number of pregnancies, previous low birth weight, prenatal care, genital tract infection, use of antibiotics, smoking, tooth brushing habit and birth weight were evaluated.

  • Initial Periodontal TherapyOther

    Initial Periodontal Therapy is completed ( Supragingival and subgingival calculus elimination, root planning, polishing etc.) This treatment is considered to be the safest time for pregnant mothers was performed in 2 trimester.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of pregnancies

    Number of pregnancies (numbers)

    Measured: At 9th months

  2. Birth weight

    Birth weight (kg)

    Measured: At 9th months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Probing pocket depth

    The changes in probing pocket depth in time frame.Probing pocket depth was measured for determining severity of disease and clinic outcome.

    Measured: average of 2nd months, 5th months and 8th months

  2. Clinical attachment level

    The changes in clinical attachment level in time frame. Clinical attachment level was measured for determining severity of disease and clinic outcome.

    Measured: average of 2nd months, 5th months and 8th months

  3. Gingival index

    The changes in gingival index in time frame. Gingival index was recorded for classifying and evaluating (coronally) gingival inflammation.

    Measured: average of 2nd months, 5th months and 8th months

  4. Plaque index

    The changes in plaque index in time frame. Plaque index was recorded for determining and classifying oral hygiene status.

    Measured: average of 2nd months, 5th months and 8th months

  5. Bleeding on probing

    The changes in bleeding on probing in time frame. Bleeding on probing was recorded for classifying and evaluating (apically) gingival inflammation.

    Measured: average of 2nd months, 5th months and 8th months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing collection of periodontal records, pregnancy parameters and Initial Periodontal Therapy in people with Pregnancy and Birth Weight, run by Ondokuz Mayıs University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of pregnancies (time frame: At 9th months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Nov 2015.
