Zusammenfassung: | Aim
To examine oral biomarkers that have been associated with periodontal disease progression in HIV‐infected adults in perinatally HIV‐infected and HIV‐exposed but uninfected youth.
Material and Methods
This was a cross‐sectional, multicentre substudy of youth participating in the Oral Health Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort study. Gingival crevicular fluid repository samples from participants with and without periodontal disease (using Gingival Index [GI] and Bleeding on Probing [BOP] parameters on dental examination) were tested for concentration levels of inflammatory biomarkers. Associations were assessed using Wilcoxon test and Spearman correlation.
Results
For perinatal HIV youth (n = 129), the markers consistently elevated (p |
