About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum asprosin levels in patients with stable angina and periodontitis. Asprosin is a novel metabolic biomarker reported to have potential protective roles in cardiovascular diseases and inflammatory processes. The study also investigates the relationship between periodontal parameters and serum asprosin levels before and after periodontal therapy.

Treatments tested in this trial
Non-surgical periodontal therapy (scaling and root planing)
Procedure/SurgeryNon-surgical periodontal therapy will include full-mouth scaling and root planing performed using hand instruments and/or ultrasonic devices to remove supra- and subgingival plaque and calculus.
Non-surgical periodontal therapy (Professional dental cleaning)
Procedure/SurgerySupragingival calculus and plaque removal with standardized oral hygiene instruction.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in serum asprosin levels after non-surgical periodontal therapy
Serum asprosin concentrations (ng/mL) will be measured using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit at baseline and 3 months following non-surgical periodontal therapy.
