Summary

The investigators hypothesized that the IL-1A (+4895), IL-1B (+3954), and IL-1RN gene polymorphisms may be associated with PLBW. Smoking has been well documented by numerous studies as a major environmental risk factor for periodontitis and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore, the investigators only selected non-smoking individuals in this study as the smoking-related risk could obscure the polymorphism-related increase in risk for periodontitis and adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed to determine the association between IL-1A (+4895), IL-1B (+3954), and IL-1RN polymorphisms with adverse pregnancy outcomes and periodontitis in a non-smoking Turkish population.
