Chemerin and interleukin-6 levels in obese individuals following periodontal treatment

Objective To investigate changes in the levels of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) chemerin and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) in both obese/non‐obese individuals with periodontitis following non‐surgical periodontal therapy. Methods Individuals (n = 80) were split into four groupings according to periodontal/...

Summary:Objective To investigate changes in the levels of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) chemerin and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) in both obese/non‐obese individuals with periodontitis following non‐surgical periodontal therapy. Methods Individuals (n = 80) were split into four groupings according to periodontal/anthropometric parameters: (i) periodontal healthy without obesity; (ii) chronic periodontitis (CP) without obesity; (iii) periodontal healthy with obesity; and (iv) CP with obesity. Individuals with periodontitis were treated with non‐surgical periodontal therapy. Both GCF sampling procedures and clinical periodontal measures were performed prior to treatment and 6 weeks thereafter. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay was utilized to measure both chemerin and IL‐6 levels. Results Greater values for chemerin and IL‐6 were observed in obese individuals compared to their non‐obese controls and in individuals with CP compared to their periodontal healthy controls (P
