gingival crevicular blood for assessment of blood glucose levels
background and aims. a high number of patients with periodontitis may have undiagnosed diabetes. it is possible that gingival crevicular blood from routine periodontal probing may be a source of blood for glucose measurements. the aim of this study was to compare gingival crevicular blood and fingerstick blood glucose measurements using a self-monitoring device with the standard laboratory plas...

متن کاملReduced oxidative function in gingival crevicular neutrophils in periodontal disease.
Measurable amounts of viable and functional polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are recovered from pooled washings of the gingival crevice of healthy individuals. In the present study, we have assessed the ability of the PMNs removed from single healthy or diseased pocket sites to mount an oxidative burst when challenged with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and compared these activities with e...
