About this trial

This observational cross-sectional study will evaluate salivary apelin, chemerin, ghrelin, and lipocalin-2 levels in individuals with different periodontal and systemic conditions. Participants will be divided into four groups according to periodontal status and the presence or absence of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Clinical periodontal measurements and unstimulated saliva samples will be obtained before periodontal treatment. Salivary biomarker levels will be measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. The study aims to determine whether salivary apelin, chemerin, ghrelin, and lipocalin-2 levels are associated with periodontitis, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and periodontal clinical parameters.
