The effects of smoking on the expression of gelatinases in chronic periodontitis: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBrazilian Oral Research, 2018
Smokers have a risk of developing periodontal disease. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) play a significant role in periodontal tissue destruction. In this study possible relationship between smoking and gingival tissue expression of gelatinases in chronic

Relationship between -889 C/T polymorphism in interleukin-1A gene and risk of chronic periodontitis : evidence from a meta-analysis with new published findings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Periodontitis results from an inflammatory response caused by accumulative microorganisms in periodontal sites. Several factors are involved in pathogenesis of periodontitis, for example the -889 C/T polymorphism in interleukin-1A gene.

Subgingival periodontal pathogens associated with chronic periodontitis in Yemenis [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Oral Health, 2014
Il a été rapporté que le profil microbien sous-gingival associé à la parodontite différait significativement selon l'emplacement géographique. Le but de cette étude était d'évaluer l'association entre un panel d'agents pathogènes bactériens parodontaux présumés et la parodontite chronique chez les Yéménites.

Fibrinogen Degradation Products and Periodontitis: Deciphering the Connection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015
Introduction: Fibrinogen degradation products (e.g. D-dimer) arise from digested fibrin clots and fibrinogen. Elevated concentrations accompany activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis and indicate chronic inflammatory diseases. D-Dimer tests are a
