Prevalence of periodontal pathogens and metabolic control of type 1 diabetes patients.

摘要: OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate prevalence periodontal pathogens Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia and Treponema denticola in subgingival plaque collected at different probing depths type 1 diabetes patients with disease correlation metabolic control. METHODS Twenty-one 40 50 years old were included study. In each patient blood samples taken for evaluation HbA1c level paper points from two deepest pockets. presence five detected by multiplex polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS results 38 showed that T. found 48% followed 31%, P. gingivalis 26%, intermedia 9% A. actinomycetemcomitans 7%. most frequent combination same sample. serum nine where (7.5 +/- 1.4%) significantly higher (F-test, p = 0.001) than 12 not (6.8 0.5%). Similarly, eight 1.8%) compared 13 (7.0 No such or actinomycetemcomitans. CONCLUSIONS We conclude are frequently diabetic these findings correlate poorer control diabetes.
