Effect of Periodontal Debridement on Leptin Levels in Obese

Effect of Periodontal Debridement on Leptin Levels in Patients With Class I and II Obesity With Periodontitis

Before and 3 month after performing SRP, serum levels of leptin was measured. All patients went through a blood sample collection consisting in the extraction of 4 milliliters of peripheral venous blood of the antecubital fossa of the arm with a 20-gauge needle and kept on stored in 6 milliliters serum Becton Dickinson (BD) Vacutainer® tubes. An hour after this process, the blood sample was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes separating this way the rest of the components of the blood, which were distributed in aliquots and stored in -80 degree Celsius (ºC) for further analysis. Later, the serum samples were analysed by using the Leptin ELISA Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific®., Massachusetts, USA).
The results were measured as the concentration in millilitres of serum leptin (pg/ml).The student t test and ANOVA were applied to observe if there were significant differences between treatment groups.

Before and 3 months after performing SRP, serum levels of leptin were measured in the same way as described for the primary results.
BMI was calculated dividing weight by the height square. Patients were catalogued in a normal weight range when their BMI fluctuated between 18,50 y 24,99 kg/m2, Class I Obesity with a BMI between 30,00 a 34,99 kg/m2 and Class II Obesity with a BMI between 35,00 y 39,99 kg/m2, according to WHO. It was performed a correlation analysis using Kendall Tau test.

PD corresponds to the distance in millimetres from the gingival margin (MG) to the inserted probe´s tip of the most apical portion of the periodontal pocket and CAL corresponds to the distance measured in millimetres from the cementum enamel junction to the tip of the probe inserted to the most apical portion of the periodontal pocket.Both were obtained by measuring with a North Carolina periodontal probe (Hu-Friedy® Manufacturing Inc., Chicago, Illinois, USA), in a position parallel to the vertical axis of the tooth, with a pressure no greater than 0.25 Newtons (N), in a circular direction over the entire surface of each tooth, registering the 6 deepest sites per tooth (mesiobuccal, buccal, distobuccal,distolingual, lingual and mesiolingual). Subsequently, those sites were counted and the student t test was applied to observe if there were significant differences between both treatment groups.

BI is percentage of dental surfaces with staining, through the use of biofilm developers. To obtain the index, a curaprox developer tablet was dissolved in a plastic cup with water and with a cotton ball this solution was applied on all of the tooth surfaces, recording only those that were stained. The calculation was made by dividing the surfaces that stained by the total surfaces, which corresponds to the number of teeth present multiplied by 4, and multiplying this value by 100. Subsequently, student t test was applied to observe if there were significant differences between treatment groups.

BoP is the percentage of sites that bleed when probing. Suppuration corresponds to the exit of purulent exudate by the crevice.
Both were recorded during PD measurement with a North Carolina periodontal probe (Hu-Friedy® Manufacturing Inc., Chicago, Illinois, USA) and was considered positive if it occurs 20 seconds after probing. The calculation was made by dividing the sites that bled or has suppuration by the total sites, which corresponds to the number of teeth present multiplied by 6, and multiplying this value by 100. Subsequently, student t test was applied to observe if there were significant differences between treatment groups.

Tooth Mobility it is measured clinically by applying pressure with the ends of 2 metal instruments and trying to rock a tooth gently in a bucco-lingual or palatine direction.
Grade 1: Perceptible mobility <1mm in bucco- lingual or palatine direction. Grade 2: >1mm but < 2mm. Grade 3: >2mm or depressibility in the socket.

A double-blind, controlled, clinical trial was conducted. The sampling method was probabilistic stratified and the sample size 27 subjects in total, divided in 3 groups of: 9 normal weight patients, 9 class I Obesity patients and 9 class II Obesity patients and history of moderate to severe periodontitis, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and signed an informed consent. All patients received SRP and clinical monitoring at baseline and 3 months post-therapy by the same examiner.Serum levels of leptin were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at baseline and 3 months post SRP by one trained examiner.

Relationship Between Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Periodontal Diseases

Peridontal disease will be diagnosed based on clinical and radiographic examination

Socio-demographic data (age, sex, etc.) and clinical data (medical history, skin symptoms, etc.) will be collected for all patients included in the study.

These will be investigated using spectroscopy and liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry
