Assessment of salivary immunoglobulin A, interleu-kin-6 and C-reactive protein in chronic kidney dis-ease patients on hemodialysis and on conservative treatment

Background: Chronic kidney disease is a gradual loss of function with diabetes and hypertension as the leading cause. one these systemic diseases that can affect salivary contents. Aims: This study aimed to assess immunoglobulin A, interleukin-6 C- reactive protein in chronic patients on hemodialysis those conservative treatment comparison control subjects. Materials methods: Ninety subjects were included this divided into three groups: 30 for at least 6 months ago; healthy Secretory saliva samples measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ELISA. Results: No significant difference A level among groups was seen. increase both compared group. While, no IL-6 CRP differences seen between patient groups, treatment. Conclusions: There hemodialysis, regarding IgA while Salivary interleukin -6 significantly higher
