No results posted yet for this study

Summary

the relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease is crucial and has been explained via a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors that influence the host immune tolerance leading to both disease characteristics. The aim of this study is to clinically investigate the correlation between the levels of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in gingival crevicular fluid before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment and the severity of periodontal disease and rheumatoid arthritis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients
