Molecular detection of IL-10 level to determine severity of periodontitis in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients / Detecção molecular do nível de IL-10 para determinar a gravidade da periodontite em pacientes com Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2

Objective: The prevalence of periodontal disease is increasing in most countries including developing and developed countries. It affects 20-50-% of the global population. Patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) with severe periodontal disease had a 3.2 times higher risk of death than individuals without periodontitis. Periodontitis contributes to small-scale systemic inflammation. The objective of this study was to determine the severity of periodontitis using IL-10 (Interleukin-10) level in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Materials and Methods: This study was cross-sectional. All methods were performed following the guidelines and regulations of the Ethics Committee, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Universitas Airlangga. The samples were 90 subjects. The instruments used were questionnaires, periodontal status measurements based on Community Periodontal Index (CPI), and random blood glucose measurements. Data on the IL-10 level was obtained using Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF). Results: There was a significant difference in lifestyle in each group. The highest IL-10 level was found in the periodontitis group, followed by the periodontitis with the type 2 DM group. Conclusion: The level of IL-10 can be used to determine periodontitis severity in type 2 DM. Most respondents with the highest level of IL-10 were found in periodontitis followed by periodontitis with type 2 DM group. High levels of IL-10 will decrease the synthesis of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin-1 (IL-1), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), activation of macrophages, and Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) (AU)

Objetivo: A prevalência da doença periodontal tem aumentado na maioria dos países, incluindo países em desenvolvimento e desenvolvidos, Afetando 20-50% da população global. Pacientes com Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2 (DM) com doença periodontal grave apresentaram risco 3,2 vezes maior de morte do que indivíduos sem periodontite. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a gravidade da periodontite utilizando o nível de IL-10 (Interleucina-10) no diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Materiais e Métodos: Este estudo transversalfoi realizadoseguindo as orientações e regulamentos do Comitê de Ética da Faculdade de Medicina Dentária da Universitas Airlangga. Noventa participantes,responderam um questionário e foram examinados , para o estado periodontal, baseadas no Índice Periodontal Comunitário (IPC) e medidas aleatórias de glicemia. Os dados do nível de IL-10 foram obtidos utilizando Fluido Crevicular Gengival (GCF). Resultados: Houve uma diferença significativa no estilo de vida em cada grupo. O nível mais alto de IL-10 foi encontrado no grupo com periodontite, seguido pela periodontite com o grupo DM tipo 2. Conclusão: O nível de IL-10 pode ser utilizado para determinar a gravidade da periodontite no DM tipo 2. A maioria dos participantes com maior nível de IL-10 estava no grupo periodontite seguida de periodontite com DM tipo 2. Altos níveis de IL-10 diminuiem a síntese do Fator de Necrose Tumoral Alfa (TNF-α), Interleucina-1 (IL-1), Interleucina-6 (IL-6), ativação de macrófagos e neutrófilos polimorfonucleares (PMN) (AU)

Intention and Oral Health Behavior Perspective of Islamic Traditional Boarding School Students Based on Theory of Planned Behavior

Abstract Objective: To analyze the correlation of the students in an Islamic boarding school intention toward oral health behavior by means of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) approach. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional analytic study was conducted on 153 students of an Islamic boarding school who fulfilled the criterion. Data were obtained by a questionnaire and clinical examination. Data were presented as mean and standard deviation. Results: The highest score of the variable that affects behavior recorded from both male and female respondents was Subjective Norm (57.288 ± 12.828), followed by Attitude (25.627 ± 4.144). Meanwhile, the lowest score that affects behavior was Oral Health Knowledge (3.179 ± 1.402). All study variables, according to the theory of planned behavior, such as knowledge, attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, and intention had significant value to predict and assess behavior with p<0.05. Conclusion: Attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and oral health knowledge in Private Boarding School's Santris influence the intention to improve oral hygiene behavior.
