Salivary Free Amino Acid Profiles in Periodontitis: Associations With Clinical Parameters and Dynamic Responses to Non Surgical Therapy (FAA-CP-SRP)

19. juni 2026 oppdatert av: Zhang, Yuwei

A Cross-Sectional and Prospective Cohort Study of Salivary Free Amino Acid Profiles in Patients With Periodontal Health, Gingivitis and Periodontitis: Associations With Clinical Parameters and Dynamic Responses to Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

# Brief Summary (Word count: 198)

This combined observational and interventional study investigates salivary amino acid profiles and their connections to periodontal conditions, as well as how these substances change after standard non-surgical gum treatment. It recruits adults aged 20 to 50, including healthy volunteers, people with gingivitis and periodontitis. The study is approved by the institutional ethics committee with the ID WCHSIRB-D-2023-370. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do salivary free amino acid levels differ across people with healthy gums, gingivitis and periodontitis? Are changes in salivary branched-chain amino acids related to improved gum health after treatment?

Researchers compare three groups in the observational part and track periodontitis patients to assess treatment effects. All participants go through eligibility screening, full periodontal checks and morning saliva collection. 45 participants complete only one baseline visit. Another 32 periodontitis patients receive standard therapy and return for re-examinations at 6 and 12 weeks. Saliva samples are tested for amino acid concentrations. Statistical analysis will explore the correlation between salivary markers and gum conditions. The results may aid clinical evaluation and management of periodontal diseases.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy Group
Participants in this experimental arm receive standardized non-surgical periodontal therapy. The treatment includes personalized oral hygiene instruction and quadrant-wise scaling and root planing, performed once weekly following the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) clinical practice guidelines. Post-treatment follow-up assessments, including full-mouth periodontal examinations and unstimulated saliva collection, are scheduled at 6 weeks and 12 weeks after therapy completion to evaluate clinical outcomes and salivary amino acids changes.
Fremgangsmåte: Non-surgical periodontal therapy
Standardized non-surgical periodontal therapy, including personalized oral hygiene instruction and quadrant-wise scaling and root planing, is provided once weekly following the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) clinical practice guidelines. The goal is to remove supra- and subgingival plaque and calculus to reduce periodontal inflammation.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Change in Salivary Branched-Chain Amino Acid (BCAA) Concentrations from Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-Treatment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Salivary concentrations of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, valine) will be measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) at three time points: baseline (pre-treatment), 6 weeks post-treatment, and 12 weeks post-treatment. The primary outcome is the mean change in BCAA levels from baseline to the 12-week follow-up, reflecting the long-term metabolic response to non-surgical periodontal therapy.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Change in Mean Probing Depth (PD) from Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-Treatment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Probing depth (PD) will be measured at six sites per tooth using a calibrated UNC-15 periodontal probe at baseline and 12 weeks post-treatment. The mean change in PD from baseline to 12 weeks will be calculated to assess the improvement in periodontal pocket depth after therapy.
Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Change in Mean Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) from Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-Treatment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Clinical attachment level (CAL) will be measured at six sites per tooth using a calibrated periodontal probe at baseline and 12 weeks post-treatment. The mean change in CAL from baseline to 12 weeks will be evaluated to reflect improvements in periodontal attachment support.
Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Change in Bleeding on Probing Percentage (BOP%) from Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-Treatment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Bleeding on probing (BOP) will be recorded as present or absent at six sites per tooth during periodontal examinations at baseline and 12 weeks post-treatment. The percentage of bleeding sites (BOP%) will be calculated, and the change from baseline to 12 weeks will be analyzed to assess reductions in periodontal inflammation.
Baseline (pre-treatment) and 12 weeks post-treatment
Change in Mean Probing Depth (PD) from Baseline to 6 Weeks Post-Treatment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 6 weeks post-treatment
Probing depth (PD) will be measured at six sites per tooth at baseline and 6 weeks post-treatment. The mean change in PD from baseline to 6 weeks will be analyzed to evaluate the early clinical response to non-surgical periodontal therapy.
