Profile of chronic and aggressive periodontitis among Senegalese
PURPOSE To describe the profile of chronic and aggressive periodontitis among Senegalese (West Africans) attending the Institute of Dentistry of Dakar. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted with an inclusion period running from 2001 to 2008. The sample included 413 chronic periodontitis and 151 aggressive periodontitis cases, among them 299 males and 265 females selected from 2,274 reco...
متن کاملMolecular differences between chronic and aggressive periodontitis.
The 2 major forms of periodontitis, chronic (CP) and aggressive (AgP), do not display sufficiently distinct histopathological characteristics or microbiological/immunological features. We used molecular profiling to explore biological differences between CP and AgP and subsequently carried out supervised classification using machine-learning algorithms including an internal validation. We used ...
متن کاملExpression Profile of IL-35 mRNA in Gingiva of Chronic Periodontitis and Aggressive Periodontitis Patients: A Semiquantitative RT-PCR Study
BACKGROUND Proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines play a key role in the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases. Secretion of bioactive IL-35 has been described by T regulatory cells (T(regs)) and is required for their maximal suppressive activity. T(regs) are involved in the modulation of local immune response in chronic periodontitis patients. OBJECTIVE Hence, the present study was a...
متن کاملThe association between selected RANKL gene polymorphisms and chronic/aggressive periodontitis in Iranian subjects
The primary aim of this study was to investigate the status of RANKL6-7 gene polymorphism in patients with chronic (mild, moderate, severe) and aggressive periodontitis as well as healthy controls. We examined80 patients for the RANKL6-7 polymorphisms (rs1054016 and rs9567000). Polymorphism was determinedby polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by direct sequencing. No statistica...
متن کاملComparison of the clinical features of chronic and aggressive periodontitis
In the late 1800s, what is now known as chronic periodontitis was clinically characterized as a slowly progressive destruction of the periodontium due to the accumulation of lime deposits on the teeth (21), or calcic inflammation of the peridental membrane secondary to deposits of salivary and ⁄ or serumal calculus (13). The calcified deposits were considered to be mechanical irritants that led...
