Summary

This cross-sectional observational study aimed to evaluate periodontal clinical parameters and inflammatory cytokine levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), saliva, and serum in patients with non-infectious uveitis (NIU) compared with systemically healthy individuals.

Twenty-five patients diagnosed with non-infectious uveitis and twenty-seven age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included. Clinical periodontal parameters including probing pocket depth, clinical attachment loss, plaque index, gingival index, and bleeding on probing were recorded. Biological samples including saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, and serum were collected.

Levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and IL-17 were measured using ELISA. The study aimed to investigate whether periodontal inflammatory status and systemic cytokine profiles are associated with non-infectious uveitis.
