RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the concentration of formic acid,propionic acid and butyric acid in gingival crevicular fluid(GCF)of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ periodontitis,and their relationship with periodontitis.Methods:The study enrolled 37 systemically healthy patients with periodontitis and 19 healthy controls who visited Department of Periodontology,Peking University School and Hospital of Sto-matology from February 2008 to May 2011.Their GCFs were collected from the mesial-buccal site of one molar or incisor in each quadrant.Periodontal clinical parameters,including plaque index(PLI),probing depth(PD),bleeding index(BI),and attachment loss(AL).Concentrations of formic acid,propionic acid and butyric acid in the supernatant of the GCFs were analyzed by high-performance capil-lary electrophoresis(HPCE).The prediction ability of formic acid,propionic acid and butyric acid with the risk of periodontitis and the differences between grade B and grade C periodontitis were analyzed.Results:In this study,32 patients with stage Ⅲ and 5 patients with stage Ⅳ were enrolled,including 9 patients with grade B and 28 patients with grade C.Clinical periodontal variables in the patients with pe-riodontitis were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.001).Formic acid was signifi-cantly lower in periodontitis than that in the control group[5.37(3.39,8.49)mmol/L vs.12.29(8.35,16.57)mmol/L,P<0.001].Propionic acid and butyric acid in periodontitis were significantly higher than those in the control group:Propionic acid,10.23(4.28,14.90)mmol/L vs.2.71(0.00,4.25)mmol/L,P<0.001;butyric acid,2.63(0.47,3.81)mmol/L vs.0.00(0.00,0.24)mmol/L,P<0.001.There was no significant difference in formic acid,propionic acid and butyric acid concentrations between grade B and grade C periodontitis(P>0.05).Propionic acid and butyric acid in the deep pocket were significantly higher than in the shallow pocket,while the concentration of formic acid decreased with the increase of PD.Propionic acid(OR=1.51,95%CI:1.29-1.75)and butyric acid(OR=3.72,95%CI:1.93-7.17)were risk factors for periodontitis,while formic acid(OR=0.87,95%CI:0.81-0.93)might be a protective factor for periodontitis.Propionic acid(AUC=0.852,95%CI:0.805-0.900),butyric acid(AUC=0.889,95%CI:0.841-0.937),f(formic acid,AUC=0.844,95%CI:0.793-0.895)demonstrated a good predictive capacity for the risk of periodontitis.Conclusion:The concentration of formic acid decrease in the GCF of periodontitis patients,which is a protective factor for periodontitis,its reciprocal have good predictive capacity.However,propionic acid and butyric acid increase,which are risk factors for periodontitis and have good predictive capacity.The concentration of formic acid,propionic acid,and butyric acid vary with probing depth,but there is no significant difference between grade B and grade C periodontitis.
RESUMEN
The biological sealing (BS) around implants is a dominant factor to determine the long-term success of peri-implant health. There are several features of the BS around implants in common with the soft tissue attached to teeth, such as the presence of crevicular fluid, acquired pellicle, epithelium; otherwise, the quality of the BS around implants is weaker compared with the junctional epithelium of natural teeth. Then, this article aimed to describe three cases report showing the presence of a BS (cuticle-crevice fluid-acquired pellicle) around the fixed crowns on dental implants in the anterior zone, through photographic analysis. It was used a Nikon 8100 camera with a 105 mm macro lens and a Macro Ring circular flash. A photographic profile examination was made always showing the clinical case and, specifically, the focal point in the crown-gingival tissue (prosthesis boundary and peri-implant tissue), highlighting the anatomical gingiva on the ceramic prosthetic crown at an angle between 140 to 160 degrees. Although cases 1 and 2 had 1-year follow-up and case 3 around 4 years, the common findings for all treatments done were: (i) oral rehabilitation with crowns on dental implants; (ii) patients satisfied with the esthetic and functional result; (iii) stability of the soft tissue around the crowns; (iv) all the patients had a good oral hygiene; (v) presence of a thin membrane associated with the acquire pellicle, similar to an annular cuticle, which we named cuticle-acquired pellicle complex or tertiary cuticle or prosthetic-implant cuticle. This complex (cuticle-crevicular fluid-acquired pellicle) is suggested to be the responsible by the BS on dental implants. Moreover, the cuticle (epithelial part in the peri-implant sulcus), although similar to teeth, may be considered a tertiary pellicle due to be found on ceramic crowns on dental implants, differently of the primary and secondary pellicle. Whitin the limitation of these three cases reports, the BS was reported and can be introduced the new concept of the "cuticle-crevicular fluid-acquired pellicle complex" or "prosthetic-implant cuticle".

@#Metabolomics reflects the endogenous metabolite changes in organisms through qualitative and quantitative detection of small molecules in biological samples, revealing the metabolic changes during disease development. Metabolomic studies of periodontitis further elucidate the etiology, diagnosis and predictive markers of periodontitis at the levels of metabolites and metabolic pathways. In this paper, the concept and research methods of metabonomics were summarized, and the current status of the metabonomics of saliva and gingival crevicular fluid in the study of periodontitis was reviewed. Previous studies have shown that metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids and amino acids and metabolic pathways such as glutamic acid and pyrimidine metabolism might promote the occurrence of periodontitis, and it was suggested that lactic acid, γ-amino-butyrate, butyric acid and lysophosphatidic acid might be potential diagnostic markers of periodontitis. The metabolomics study of periodontitis still faces challenges such as high heterogeneity of results and fluctuation of metabolites. In the future, its study could be optimized through multicenter prospective studies to provide fresh approaches for the etiology and diagnosis of periodontitis.
RESUMEN
Background: Advances in oral and periodontal disease diagnostic research are moving towards methods wherein periodontal risk can be identified and quantified by objective measures such as bio?markers. Given the roles of vitamin D binding protein (DBP) in modulating the immune response and in the transport of vitamin D, it is hypothesised that quantitative changes of vitamin DBP are associated with periodontal disease. Aim: The aim of the current study is to measure DBP levels in serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with generalised chronic periodontitis, in comparison to healthy controls. Materials and Methods: The present cross?sectional clinico?bio?chemical study includes 30 systemically healthy subjects with 15 periodontally healthy and 15 chronic periodontitis subjects who were recruited from the out?patient Department of Periodontics. GCF and blood samples were collected from all the patients. DBP estimation was performed in both the samples using a commercially available ELISA kit. Results: Serum and GCF DBP levels in chronic periodontitis subjects were significantly higher when compared to the periodontally healthy group. There were no significant correlations found among serum and GCF DBP levels with gender and increasing age in both the groups. An increase in disease severity measured by the increase in probing pocket depth and clinical attachment loss did not show correlation with the GCF and serum DBP levels in the chronic periodontitis group. Conclusion: Based on the findings of the present study, increased serum and GCF DBP levels in chronic periodontitis seem to be a probable marker for identifying ongoing periodontal destruction.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR) is one of the most common complications of orthodontic treatment. Historically, only radiographic methods were available, while offering ease of use and accessibility, many limitations exist. Problems of technique, standardization, limited points of view and radiation exposure remain. Resorption can only be detected after a significant portion of the root has been lost (60% to 70% mineralized tissue). Moreover, these methods are static and cannot indicate if the process of root resorption has arrested or is ongoing. Recently, oral fluids have been used as a tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of oral and systemic diseases through the detection of biomarkers. The purpose of this review is to describe the scientific evidence related to the prevalence, etiology, the traditional diagnostic methods and the advances in the detection of oral biomarkers through molecular biology for this pathology.
RESUMEN La reabsorción radicular inflamatoria inducida ortodónticamente (RRIIO) es una de las complicaciones más comunes del tratamiento de Ortodoncia. Históricamente, solo estaban disponibles los medios radiográficos para detectarla, sin embargo, requieren de exposición a radiaciones ionizantes potencialmente dañinas, la técnica radiográfica es sensible, detecta la reabsorción después de que se ha perdido una porción significativa de la raíz (60% al 70% del tejido mineralizado) y no proporciona información sobre su actividad. Recientemente, los fluidos orales vienen siendo utilizados como herramienta para el diagnóstico y monitoreo de enfermedades orales y sistémicas mediante la detección de biomarcadores. El propósito de esta revisión es describir la evidencia científica relacionada con la prevalencia y etiología, los métodos diagnósticos tradicionales y los avances en la detección de biomarcadores orales mediante biología molecular.
RESUMEN
Abstract The aim of this study was the quantification of Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in periodontal pockets of patients with periodontitis. This is an observational, descriptive, case-control study. Thirty subjects were selected: 15 controls and 15 cases. A periodontal study was conducted following the parameters of AAP 2017 for the diagnosis of periodontal diseases. A sample of saliva and gingival crevicular fluid was obtained from each subject and then analyzed with the Human S1P Elisa kit (MyBioSource #MBS2516132) accordingly to the manufacturer's instructions, in order to verify the presence of S1P and quantify it´s concentration when founded. Results showed a significant difference (p=0.05) between cases and controls. In the case of saliva samples, the concentration of S1P was higher than the ones found in the control group (72.94 ng/mL and 45.12 ng/mL). For GCF, a higher amount of S1P was found in patients with POD (20.09 ng/mL and 15.20 ng/mL). This work raises a possible route of bone metabolism, inflammatory process, and identification of periodontitis through oral quantification of S1P, however, future studies are needed.

Objective:To investigate the effects of McLaughlin Bennett Treriri (MBT) straight wire technique on the content of periostin in gingival crevicular fluid of the maxillary first molar.Methods:Ninety patients with malocclusion who were treated with MBT straight wire technique in Jiaxing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February to September 2021 were included in this study. The patients were divided into group A (13-18 years old) and group B (30-35 years old) according to age, with 45 patients in each group. According to the random number table method, patients in group A were divided into 100 g subgroup (group A1, n = 22) and 150 g subgroup (group A2, n = 23), and patients in group B were divided into 100 g subgroup (group B1, n = 22) and 150 g sub group (group B2, n = 23). Effects of age on the content of periostin in gingival crevicular fluid and bite force were observed. The antagonistic effect of periostin in gingival crevicular fluid during the application of different corrective forces was evaluated based on the changes in bite force, bone mineral density and height of the jaw after the application of force. The incidence of complications was calculated. Results:The level of periostin and bite force in group A were (1 249.38 ± 89.29) pmol/L and (1 038.37 ± 79.54) N, respectively, which were significantly higher than (831.54 ± 76.38) pmol /L and (921.45 ± 81.36) N in group B ( t = 23.86, 6.89, both P < 0.05). After 1 and 3 months of treatment, the amplitude of improvement in bite force, jaw bone density, and jaw height in group A2 were greater than those in group A2 ( t = 2.92, 6.39, 0.64, 1.30, 1.07, 2.48, all P < 0.05). After 7 and 14 days of treatment, the level of periostin was increased in both group B1 and B2 and its level in group B2 was significantly higher than that in group B1 ( t = 0.59, 1.89, both P < 0.05). After 1 month of treatment, there were no significant differences in bite force, jaw bone density and jaw height between groups B1 and B2 (all P > 0.05). After 3 months of treatment, the amplitude of improvement in bite force, jaw bone density and jaw height were greater in group B2 than those in group B1 ( t = 0.27, 4.02, 3.07, 1.52, 0.06, 1.57, P < 0.05). There were 3 patients with loose teeth, 2 patients with pulp reaction, 1 patient with mucosal ulcer, and 2 patients with secondary dental caries during treatment. The incidence of complications was 8.89%. Conclusion:MBT straight wire technique is effective and safe in the treatment of patients with dental deformities. The level of periostin in gingival crevicular fluid of the maxillary first molar and bite force decrease with age. The corrective force can increase and activate the expression of periostin, thereby promoting periodontal wound healing and regeneration, and increasing patients' bite force, jaw bone density and height.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effects of bracket-free invisible orthodontic technique versus traditional fixed orthodontic technique on the levels of inflammatory factors in the gingival crevicular fluid of orthodontic adolescents. Methods:A total of 67 orthodontic patients who received their first orthodontic treatment in Huzhou Central Hospital from June to September 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into an observation group ( n = 34) and a control group ( n = 33). The control group was treated with traditional fixed orthodontic treatment. The observation group was treated with invisible orthodontic treatment without brackets. At 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 months of treatment, the level of inflammatory factors and periodontal index were compared. Results:At 0 and 1 month of treatment, there were no significant differences in the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the gingival crevicular fluid between the observation and control groups (all P > 0.05). At 2, 4, and 6 months of treatment, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (IL-1β: t2 months = 5.56, P = 0.042; t4 months = 8.14, P = 0.019; t6 months = 9.87, P = 0.002. IL-6: t2 months = 7.15, P = 0.029; t4 months = 7.94, P = 0.021; t6 months = 9.16, P = 0.007. TNF-α: t2 months = 6.87, P = 0.039; t4 months = 7.65, P = 0.026: t6 months = 9.89, P = 0.001). In each group, gingival index (GI), sulcus bleeding index (SBI), probing depth (PD), and plaque index (PLI) increased significantly after treatment. At 0 and 1 month of treatment, there were no significant differences in GI, SBI, PD, and PLI between the two groups (all P > 0.05). At 2, 4, and 6 months of treatment, GI, SBI, PD, and PLI in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (GI: t2 months = 3.62, P = 0.073; t4 months = 8.16, P = 0.018; t6 months = 8.54, P = 0.016. SBI: t2 months = 5.65, P = 0.042; t4 months = 7.56, P = 0.027; t6 months = 8.15, P = 0.019. PD: t2 months = 5.652, P = 0.042; t4 months = 7.56, P = 0.027, t6 months = 8.15, P = 0.019. PLI: t2 months = 9.57, P = 0.006; t4 months = 9.98, P = 0.002. t6 months = 9.94, P = 0.010). In addition, at 1 month of treatment, PLI in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 9.99, P = 0.001). Conclusion:Bracket-free invisible orthodontic treatment provides better protection on periodontal tissue and has less impact on periodontal health than traditional fixed orthodontic treatment.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the level of gingival crevicular fluid and serum gingival sulcus fluid Dickkopf-1 (DKK-1), macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α) and interleukin (IL)-17 in patients with chronic periodontitis and their clinical significance.Methods:80 patients with chronic periodontitis (observation group) and 40 healthy periodontal subjects (control group) were prospectively selected. The gingival index (GI), bleeding index (BI), probe depth (PD), loss of attachment (AL) levels were compared between the two groups. The IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), DKK1, MIP-1α and IL-17 levels in the gingival sulcus fluid and serum of the two groups were compared, and the correlation of DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 levels with periodontal indexes and inflammatory factors in the observation group were analyzed. The DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 levels in the gingival crevicular fluid and serum before and after treatment were compared among the patients with different disease degrees.Results:The levels of GI, BI, PD and AL in the observation group [(2.11±0.36)points, (3.76±0.65)points, (4.56±0.78)mm, (4.06±0.49)mm, respectively] were higher than those of the control group [(0.53±0.08)points, (1.61±0.33)points, (2.13±0.29)mm, 0 mm, respectively] (all P<0.05). The levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in gingival crevicular fluid of the observation group [(65.23±9.30)ng/L, (310.19±42.95)ng/L, (40.46±9.70)ng/L, (13.70±3.62)μg/L, (19.67±8.14)μg/L, (315.84±53.76)pg/μl] were higher than those of the control group [(36.81±5.61)ng/L, (178.21±25.73)ng/L, (26.43±5.76)ng/L, (7.41±2.02)μg/L, (6.23±1.99)μg/L, (266.64±46.27)pg/μl, respectively] (all P<0.05). The serum levels of IL-8, TNF-α, DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in the observation group were also higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). In the observation group, the levels of DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in gingival crevicular fluid and serum were positively correlated with eriodontal indexes (GI, BI, PD, AL) and the IL-8 and TNF-α levels (all P<0.05). In the observation group, the levels of DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in gingival crevicular fluid and serum of mild patients were lower than those of moderate to severe patients, and the levels of DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in mild and moderate to severe patients after treatment were also lower than those before treatment, with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The levels of DKK-1, MIP-1α and IL-17 in gingival crevicular fluid and serum of patients with chronic periodontitis are increased, which are closely related to the occurrence and development of chronic periodontitis. Detection of these indicators has certain significance for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
RESUMEN
Abstract Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a multifunctional cytokine that regulates inflammatory responses in various autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) for GM-CSF, interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1α) levels in patients with stage I, stage II, stage III, and stage IV periodontitis (SI-P, SII-P, SIII-P, and SIV-P). Methodology: A total of 126 individuals were recruited for this study, including 21 periodontal healthy (PH), 21 gingivitis (G), 21 SI-P, 21 SII-P, 21 SIII-P, and 21 SIV-P patients. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), presence of bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), and attachment loss (AL) were used during the clinical periodontal assessment. GCF samples were obtained and analyzed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: GCF GM-CSF, MIP-1α, and IL-1β were significantly higher in SII-P and SIII-P groups than in PH, G, and SI-P groups (p<0.05). There was no significant difference among the PH, G, and SI-P groups in IL-1β, GM-CSF, and MIP-1α levels (p>0.05). Conclusions: These results show that GM-CSF expression was increased in SII-P, SIII-P, and SIV-P. Furthermore, GM-CSF levels may have some potential to discriminate between early and advanced stages of periodontitis.
RESUMEN
Abstract: It is stated that peri-implanter diseases have destructive effects similar to periodontal diseases. This study aims to compare IL-1β and TNF-α levels in healthy and diseased areas. Forty non-smokers systemically health individuals (40 implants/40 teeth) (age:38-67) were included in the study. In clinical and radiographic examinations; plaque index (PIn), gingival index (GI), periodontal pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and marginal bone loss (MBL) values were recorded. The gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri-implanter sulcus fluids (PISF) of the patients were collected, and IL-1β and TNF-α levels were measured by ELISA in the samples. The collected data were analyzed with the help of SPSS v.22 package program. Sample PPD score showed a statistically significant difference between the diseased and healthy groups and also sample CAL showed statistically significant higher in Periodontitis(P) compared to periodontally heathy(H) and Gingivitis(G) (p>0.05). IL-1beta and TNF-α levels in GCF/PISF; In the P and Peri-implantitis (PI) group, it was found statistically significantly higher than the H, Healthy-Implant (HI), besides P showed higher levels compared to G (p<0.05). Within the limitations of our study, it can be said that IL-1β and TNF-α among inflammatory cytokines in GCF/PISF will increase in periodontal and peri-implanter diseases, it can also be said that this increase in cytokines may indicate that periodontal and peri-implanter diseases have similar immunological structure. Peri-implant mucositis without periodontitis history has similarity to peri-implantitis and periodontitis in terms of IL-1β and TNF-α levels in GCF/PISF.
Resumen: Se afirma que las enfermedades peri-implantarias tienen efectos destructivos similares a los de las enfermedades periodontales. Este estudio tiene como objetivo comparar los niveles de IL-1β y TNF-α en zonas sanas y enfermas. Cuarenta individuos no fumadores con salud sistémica (40 implantes/40 dientes) (edad:38-67) fueron incluidos en el estudio. En los exámenes clínicos y radiográficos se registraron los valores de índice de placa (PIn), índice gingival (GI), profundidad de la bolsa periodontal (PPD), nivel de fijación clínica (CAL) y pérdida de hueso marginal (MBL). Se recogieron los fluidos creviculares gingivales (GCF) y los fluidos del surco peri-implantario (PISF) de los pacientes, y se midieron los niveles de IL-1β y TNF-α mediante ELISA en las muestras. Los datos recogidos fueron analizados con la ayuda del programa de paquete SPSS v.22. La puntuación PPD de la muestra mostró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre los grupos enfermos y sanos y también la muestra CAL mostró estadísticamente significativa más alta en la Periodontitis (P) en comparación con la salud periodontal (H) y la Gingivitis (G) (p>0.05). Los niveles de IL-1beta y TNF-α en GCF/PISF. En el grupo de P y Peri-implantitis (PI), se encontró estadísticamente significativo más alto que el H, implante sano (HI), además P mostró niveles más altos en comparación con G (p<0.05). Dentro de las limitaciones de nuestro estudio, se puede decir que IL-1β y TNF-α entre las citoquinas inflamatorias en GCF/PISF aumentarán en las enfermedades periodontales y peri-implantarias. También se puede decir que este aumento de citoquinas puede indicar que las enfermedades periodontales y peri-implantarias tienen una estructura inmunológica similar. La mucositis peri-implantaria sin antecedentes de periodontitis tiene similitudes con la peri-implantitis y la periodontitis en cuanto a los niveles de IL-1β y TNF-α en la GCF/PISF.

OBJECTIVES@#This study aimed to investigate the association between periodontal indexes and biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and preterm birth (PTB) in pregnancy, as well as to assess the clinical value of these indexes as predictors of PTB.@*METHODS@#A nested case-control study was conducted. A total of 300 systematically healthy pregnant women were selected within 36 weeks of gestation and grouped according to the enrolled weeks. Periodontal indexes, including probing depth (PD), bleeding index (BI), gingival index (GI), and five biomarkers in GCF, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured at the enrolled date. The detailed birth outcome was recorded.@*RESULTS@#Only women at 24-28 weeks of gestation per PTB case (four full-term births) were selected as controls subjects, PTB displayed significantly greater GI, BI, and 8-OHdG (@*CONCLUSIONS@#Increased BI and 8-OHdG at 24-28 weeks of gestation are risk factors for PTB. Their combined detection may have some value in the prediction of PTB, but further studies with a larger sample size are needed to explore it and thus provide experiment evidence for establishing an early warning system for PTB in pregnant women with periodontal disease.

RESUMEN
Objective@# To study the changes in levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with severe chronic periodontitis before and after nonsurgical periodontal therapy and to explore the relationship among the levels of these four biomarkers in GCF, their periodontal status and their clinical significance to evaluate the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy and periodontitis activity.@*Methods@# In total, 30 patients with severe chronic periodontitis were enrolled in a 1-year longitudinal pilot study (Chinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR-OCH-13004679). At baseline and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after nonsurgical therapy, the periodontal clinical indicators plaque index (PLI), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), sulcus bleeding index (SBI) were recorded. Filter paper strips were used to collect two deep-pocket (probing depth ≥ 6 mm) and two shallow-pocket (probing depth ≤ 4 mm) periodontal sites for each patient and weighed. The levels of interleukin IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and ALP in GCF were assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Meanwhile, 30 healthy sites of 15 subjects with healthy periodontium were used as the baseline controls for patients with severe chronic periodontitis.@*Results @#At the baseline, the TNF-α, ALP and IL-6 levels in GCF of the disease sites of patients with periodontitis were significantly higher than those in healthy periodontal sites of the control group (P < 0.001), and the levels of IL-10 were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.001). In patients with severe chronic periodontitis, the levels of TNF-α, ALP and IL-6 in GCF at deep-pocket sites were significantly higher than those at shallow-pocket sites (P <0.001), and the IL-10 levels were significantly lower than those at shallow-pocket sites (P < 0.001). 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after nonsurgical treatment, the levels of TNF-α and ALP in GCF at the shallow- and deep-pocket sites in patients with chronic periodontitis significantly decreased, the level of IL-10 significantly increased (P < 0.005), and the level of IL-6 in GCF at the deep-pocket sites significantly decreased (P < 0.005). However, there was no significant difference in IL-6 level at shallow-pocket sites (P > 0.05). 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after nonsurgical treatment, the periodontal clinical indicators were improved compared with the baseline. In addition, there was a significant correlation between the levels of these four biomarkers and the periodontal clinical parameters (P < 0.05). During the two follow-up visits after nonsurgical periodontal therapy, the sites with more than 2-mm increase in attachment loss had significant differences in the levels of the four biomarkers in the GCF compared with the previous visit time (P < 0.005).@*Conclusion@#The detection of the levels of these four biomarkers in GCF has strong clinical significance for assessing the severity of periodontitis and the efficacy of nonsurgical periodontal therapy. Increased levels of TNF-α, ALP, and IL-6 and decreased IL-10 levels in GCF may indicate periodontitis progression at this site.
RESUMEN
Esse estudo observacional transversal comparativo teve como objetivos avaliar os parâmetros clínicos periodontais, índice gengival modificado (IGM), índice de placa visível (IPV), crescimento gengival induzido por drogas (CGID), mensurar volume e fluxo do fluido crevicular gengival (FCG), perda dentária bem como o impacto da saúde bucal auto-relatada na qualidade de vida, em pacientes pré e pós-transplante de células tronco hematopoiéticas (TCTH), fígado (TX-fígado), rim (Tx-rim), comparados a indivíduos sem doença sistêmica diagnosticada. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) (CAAE-18019619.1.0000.5149). A amostra foi recrutada dentre usuários da Faculdade de Odontologia da UFMG, de março a dezembro de 2019. Foram registrados: IGM, IPV, profundidade à sondagem (PS), sangramento à sondagem (SS), nível de inserção clínico (NIC), recessão gengival (RG), CGID, fluxo e volume do FCG e número de dentes presentes. O instrumento Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) foi aplicado para avaliar a Qualidade de Vida Relacionada à Saúde Bucal (QVRSB). O grupo controle incluiu pacientes sem doença sistêmica diagnosticada, pareados por sexo e idade. Os dados foram analisados pelo programa SPSS versão 25. Análises descritivas e comparativas foram realizadas usando os testes de Wilcoxon, Mann Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis seguido de Dunn-Bonferroni. Modelos de regressão logística binária condicional estimaram a Odds-Ratio, considerando como desfechos presença de periodontite e prevalência de alto impacto na QVRSB. Em todos os testes, o nível de significância de 5% foi adotado. As frequências de periodontite foram maiores em indivíduos em condição de transplante que no grupo controle, na fase pré-transplante e nos pacientes Tx-fígado. O diagnóstico mais frequentemente encontrado foi a periodontite estágio I localizada. As medianas de IPV, PS, NIC, volume e fluxo do FCG foram maiores em pacientes de transplante comparados aos controles (p<0,05). Comparados aos respectivos controles, os grupos Tx-fígado e Tx-rim apresentaram medianas de IPV e PS significativamente maiores. O número de dentes presentes foi menor no grupo Tx fígado que no Tx rim (p=0,027). No modelo ajustado final, nenhuma variável mostrou associação com a presença de periodontite (p>0,05). Pacientes de transplante tiveram pior percepção do impacto na QVRSB que os indivíduos controle (p=0,015). Os grupos TCTH (p=0,008) e Tx-fígado (p=0,033) foram mais impactados que seus controles. Na regressão logística, a variável transplante não afetou a frequência de alto impacto na QVRSB. No modelo final ajustado, a escolaridade e o número de dentes presentes permaneceram como fatores preditores do impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida auto-relatada. Indivíduos com menor escolaridade (OR = 3,590; 1,021-12,622) e com menor número de dentes (OR = 4,991; IC95% 1,386-17,970) tiveram maior impacto na QVRSB. Concluiu-se, que as frequências de periodontite foram maiores em indivíduos em condição de transplante, na fase pré e em pacientes Tx-fígado. A periodontite estágio I localizada foi o diagnóstico mais frequente. A condição de transplante não afetou a presença de periodontite. O número de dentes presentes e a escolaridade tiveram impacto na QVRSB dos indivíduos em condição transplante, e estes demonstram uma pior percepção que os controles.
This cross-sectional observational study aimed to assess periodontal clinical parameters, modified gingival index (MGI), visible plaque index (VPI), drug-induced gingival overgrowth (DIGO), measuring gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) volume and flow , tooth loss as well as the impact of self-reported oral health on quality of life, in patients before and after hematopoietic stem cell (HSCT), liver (Tx-liver), kidney (Tx-kidney) transplantation compared to individuals without diagnosed systemic disease. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) (CAAE-18019619.1.0000.5149). The sample was recruited from users of the Faculty of Dentistry at UFMG, from March to December 2019. The outcomes MGI, VPI, probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BoP), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival recession (GR), DIGO, flow and volume of GCF and number of teeth present were recorded. The Oral Health Impact Profile instrument (OHIP-14) was applied to assess the Oral Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). The control group included patients without diagnosed systemic disease, matched for sex and age. The data were analyzed using the SPSS software version 25. Descriptive and comparative analyzes were performed using the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney and KruskalWallis followed by Dunn-Bonferroni tests. To estimate the Odds-Ratio, conditional binary logistic regression models were used, considering as outcomes presence of periodontites and prevalence of hight impact on OHRQoL. In all tests, the significance level of 5% was adopted. The frequency of periodontitis was higher in individuals undergoing transplantation than in the control group, in the pre-transplant phase and in Tx-liver patients. The most frequently found diagnosis was localized stage I periodontitis. The medians of VPI, PD, CAL, GCF volume and flow were higher in transplant patients compared to controls (p <0.05). The Tx-liver and Tx-kidney groups had significantly higher VPI and PD medians than their respectives controls. Comparing the transplant groups, the number of teeth present was lower in Tx-liver than in Tx-kidney (p = 0.027). In the final adjusted model, no variable was associated with the presence of periodontitis (p> 0.05). Transplant patients had a worse perception of the impact on OHRQoL than control subjects (p = 0.015). The groups HSCT (p = 0.008) and Tx-liver (p = 0.033) were more impacted than their controls. In logistic regression, the transplant variable did not affect the frequency of high impact on OHRQoL. In the final adjusted model, schooling and the number of teeth present remained as predictors of the impact of oral health on self-reported quality of life. Individuals with less education (OR = 3.590; 1.021-12.622) and with fewer teeth (OR = 4.991; 95% CI 1.386-17.970) had a greater impact on HRQoL. It was concluded that the frequencies of periodontitis were higher in individuals in a transplant condition, in the pre-transplantation phase and in Tx-liver patients. Localized stage I periodontitis was the most frequent diagnosis. The transplant condition did not affect the presence of periodontitis. The number of teeth present and education had an impact on the HRQoL of transplantation individuals, and these demonstrate a worse perception than the controls.

Background: Chronic Periodontitis (CP) is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation of supporting tissues of the teeth. A number of pro-inflammatory cytokines are formed against periodontopathogenic microorganisms. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, implicated in numerous inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.Methods: A total of 25 periodontally healthy subjects (Group 1), 25 patients with gingivitis (Group 2) and 25 patients with CP (Group 3) were included for the study based on clinical examination. Gingival index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment loss were recorded in all subjects.Results: The levels of IL-17 increased from healthy to gingivitis to periodontitis patients. A positive correlation was found with the IL-17 and the clinical parameters like gingival index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment loss.Conclusions: There is a strong association between the levels of IL-17 with periodontal disease as well as with its severity and its possible use as a biomarker for inflammatory periodontal disease.
RESUMEN
Peri-implantitis is one of the leading causes of implant failure and loss, and its early diagnosis is not currently feasible due to the low sensitivity of currents methods. In the current exploratory cross-sectional study, we explored the diagnostic potential of lymphocyte B and Th17-chemotactic cytokine levels in peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) in 54 patients with healthy, peri-mucositis, or peri-implantitis implants. Peri-implant crevicular fluid was collected, and the levels of the molecules under study were quantified by Luminex assay. The concentrations of CCL-20 MIP-3 alpha, BAFF/BLYS, RANKL and OPG concentration in PICF were analyzed in the context of patient and clinical variables (smoking status, history of periodontitis, periodontal diagnosis, implant survival, suppuration, bleeding on probing, periodontal probing depth, clinical attachment level, mean of implant probing depth, and plaque index). Patients with peri-implantitis, appear to have an overregulation of the RANKL/BAFF-BLyS axis. This phenomenon needs to be investigated in depth in further studies with a larger sample size.
La periimplantitis es una de las principales causas de falla y pérdida del implante, y su diagnóstico temprano no es factible debido a la baja sensibilidad de los métodos actuales. En este estudio transversal exploratorio, se estudió el potencial diagnóstico de los niveles de citocinas quimiotácticas de linfocitos B y Th17 en el líquido crevicular periimplantario (LCPI) en 54 pacientes con implantes sanos, peri-mucositis o periimplantitis. Se recogió líquido crevicular periimplantario y se cuantificaron los niveles de las moléculas estudiadas mediante Luminex assay. Las concentraciones de CCL-20 MIP-3 alfa, BAFF/BLYS, RANKL y la concentración de OPG en LCPI se analizaron en el contexto de las variables clínicas y del paciente (tabaquismo, antecedentes de periodontitis, diagnóstico periodontal, supervivencia del implante, supuración, sangrado al sondaje, profundidad de sondeo periodontal, nivel de inserción clínica, media de la profundidad de sondeo del implante e índice de placa). Los pacientes con periimplantitis parecen tener una sobrerregulación del eje RANKL/BAFF-BLyS. Este fenómeno debe investigarse en profundidad en futuros estudios con un tamaño de muestra mayor.

RESUMEN
@#B cell activating factor (BAFF) is the key regulator of B cells and is considered as a potential therapeutic target for immune inflammatory diseases. Periodontitis can promote local and systemic BAFF factor expression, whereas BAFF aggravates B cell immune responses and tissue destruction in periodontitis. In addition, BAFF also stimulates CD4+T cell response and inhibits regulatory T cell and M2 macrophage responses, thus changing the pathogenesis of a variety of immune inflammatory diseases. However, whether the biological effect mentioned above is an important mechanism by which BAFF aggravates periodontitis still lacks direct evidence and should be confirmed in future research. To provide a theoretical basis for the study of the pathogenic mechanism of BAFF, the expression and role of BAFF in periodontitis is reviewed in this article.
RESUMEN
Objetivo: quantificar bactérias colonizadoras do sulco gengival em paralelo à verificação do comportamento clínico periodontal e da adaptação marginal de laminados cerâmicos cimentados sobre dentes sem término cervical. Métodos: 73 laminados cerâmicos em dissilicato de lítio monolítico foram cimentados sobre dentes naturais sem término cervical e com a margem cervical posicionada cerca de 0,5mm no interior do sulco gengival. Para todos os dentes foi feita a coleta do fluido gengival crevicular (FGC) previamente à cimentação da restauração (baseline) e em 7, 180 e 365 dias após a cimentação para quantificação das bactérias S. mitis, P. intermedia e P. gingivalis através de PCR em tempo real. Clinicamente foram avaliados os parâmetros índice de placa visível (IPV), sangramento à sondagem (SS), profundidade de sondagem (PS), perda de inserção clínica (PIC), recessão gengival (RG) e a adaptação marginal da restauração em baseline, 7, 15, 30, 60, 180 e 365 dias. Foram obtidas réplicas da região cervical para análise da adaptação marginal por microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante para o IPV, PS, SS em todos os períodos analisados (Anova, p>0,05). Não houve registro de PIC e RG. Houve diferença estatisticamente significante para S. mitis na comparação entre 180 e 365 dias (Dunn, p=0,03). Não foi detectado P. intermedia em nenhum dos sítios e não houve diferença estatisticamente significante para P. gingivalis em todos os tempos do estudo (Friedman, p>0,05). Todas as restaurações receberam o conceito alfa para a adaptação marginal nas análises clínica e microscópica. Conclusões: o sobrecontorno causado pelo laminado cerâmico não contribuiu para o acúmulo de placa na região cervical e para alterações no comportamento clínico periodontal, microbiológico e microscópico em relação aos mesmos dentes antes do tratamento restaurador(AU)
Purpose: quantify colonizing bacteria of the gingival sulcus, in parallel to the verify of the periodontal clinical behavior and the marginal adaptation of natural teeth restored with ceramic veneers without finish line. Methods: 73 ceramic veneers in monolithic lithium disilicate were cemented onto natural teeth without finish line and with the cervical margin positioned about 0.5mm inside the gingival sulcus. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was collected for all teeth prior to cementation of the restoration (baseline) and 7, 180 and 365 days after cementation to quantify the bacteria S. mitis, P. intermedia and P. gingivalis through of real-time PCR. Clinically, visible plaque index (PIV), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival recession (GR) and marginal adaptation were evaluated at baseline, 7, 15, 30, 60, 180 and 365 days. Replicas of the cervical region were obtained for analysis of marginal adaptation by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: There was no statistically significant difference for PIV, PD, BOP in all periods analyzed (Anova, p>0.05). There were no records of CAL and RG. There was a statistically significant difference for S. mitis in the comparison between 180 and 365 days (Dunn, p=0.03). P. intermedia was not detected in any of the analyzed samples. There was no statistically significant difference for P. gingivalis at all study times (Friedman, p>0.05). All restorations had an alpha concept for marginal adaptation in clinical and SEM analysis. Conclusions: the overcontouring caused by ceramic veneers did not contribute to the accumulation of plaque in the cervical region and to changes in the clinical, microbiological and microscopic behavior in relation to the same teeth before the restorative treatment(AU)
