About this study
Aimed to be done in the planned thesis to evaluate the dental and periodontal health of patients with newly diagnosed JIA and healthy-periodontal problems with cytokines from saliva and oxidative stress markers non-invasively, and thus, to determine the markers' evaluability in terms of markers in determining the state of inflammation among individuals with and without the disease.
Read the detailed description
Periodontal diseases and inflammatory diseases such as arthritis show similar clinical pathologies such as connective tissue deterioration and bone destruction. They carry the risk of being seen together and the possibility of mutual influence. It is important whether these patients have a difference in cytokine profile from individuals who do not have the disease. In the literature, it has been determined that pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines, which are involved in the pathogenesis of periodontitis, are also involved in the pathogenesis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Cytokines play an undeniable role in the pathogenesis of both diseases. The cytokine profile in periodontal disease is distinctly similar to that of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). As in RA, the level of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) increase in periodontal disease. Again, it is stated that oxidative stress assessment is an important factor in evaluating the development of the disease. Saliva evaluation can be made with new oxidative stress markers that can be used in this sense.
On the subject of the proposed thesis; It is to determine the profile of dental and periodontal health in a specific group in terms of biochemical and microbiology using different body fluids together with clinical findings and has an interdisciplinary character. Aimed to be done in the planned thesis;

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Humans ELISA kitsDiagnostic test
ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) is a plate-based assay technique designed for detecting and quantifying soluble substances such as peptides, proteins, antibodies, and hormones.
The saliva of the patients included in the study will be examined with ELISA kits after they are taken.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| patient with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and gingivitis | It is a group of patients between the ages of 5 and 16 who have recently been diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and gingivitis, have not used medication yet. Receives: Diagnostic Test: Humans ELISA kits | |
| healthy patient group with gingivitis | It is a group of healthy patients with gingivitis between the ages of 5-16 who have not taken antibiotics in the last 3 months. Receives: Diagnostic Test: Humans ELISA kits | |
| healthy patient group without gingivitis | It is a group of healthy patients without gingivitis between the ages of 5-16 who have not taken antibiotics in the last 3 months. Receives: Diagnostic Test: Humans ELISA kits | |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
biochemical evaluation of saliva in juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Saliva samples were taken from the patients and the levels of interleukin-17, TNF alpha and Total antioxidant status in the saliva were measured with ELISA kits.
Measured: baseline
Secondary outcomes (4)
Evaluation of oral hygiene in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
The number of caries in the patient was evaluated with the DMFT-dft index.
Measured: baseline
Evaluation of periodontal health in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Silness-Loe plaque index (PI) was used to assess periodontal health.
Measured: baseline
Examination of periodontal health in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Gingival index (GI) was also used to examination periodontal health.
Measured: baseline
periodontal health in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Bleeding on prob index were used for periodontal health examination.
Measured: baseline

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?
biochemical evaluation of saliva in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (time frame: baseline). 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 21 Feb 2022.
