Quantitative Association of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Hyperacute Serum (HAS) with Glycemic Control (HbA1c) in Chronic Periodontitis Patients: An Ex vivo Study.

Aim: To evaluate correlation of PRF and HAS with glycemic control (HbA1c) and other systemic parameters amongst the chronic periodontitis patients.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-seven non-smoker, non-tobacco users, non-alcoholic moderate chronic periodontitis volunteers (Stage II, Grade A or B), aging between 40 and 50 years of both genders with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, HbA1c >6.5%) or without T2DM (HbA1c <6.

Markers, Pathways, and Current Evidence for Periodontitis-associated Insulin Resistance: A Narrative Review.

Aims And Objectives: The aim of the present paper is to provide a narrative review of the markers and pathways of periodontitis-associated insulin resistance (IR).

Materials And Methods: Research papers published in peer-reviewed scientific journals from 2000 to 2021 were searched systematically in Online Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, and MedLine/PubMed database. The medical subject headings (MeSH) terms used for literature search were "diabetes AND periodontal disease," "diabetes AND periodontitis," "inflammation AND insulin resistance," "Insulin resistance AND periodontal disease," and "insulin resistance AND periodontitis.
