الوصف: | Aim: This study examines the effects of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) on the oral health and detectability of inflammatory biomarkers IL-17, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and total antioxidant status (TAS) in the saliva of children with JIA. Patients and Methods: This study included 117 participants (39 patients with JIA and 78 systemically healthy subjects aged 8–12 years). Demographic data, responses to an oral health-related questionnaire, saliva samples, periodontal parameters [plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI) and bleeding on probing (BOP)] and dental recordings [facial profile (FP) and dental occlusion relationship (DOR)] were obtained. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to determine the levels of salivary IL-17, TNF-α and TAS. Results: The Caries Assessment Spectrum and Treatment (CAST) index, FP and DOR distributions did not change between groups ( P > 0.05). JIA patients had more temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort than gingivitis patients and healthy subjects ( P < 0.05). JIA patients had greater salivary IL-17 levels than healthy subjects ( P < 0.05). The healthy group’s TAS was higher than that of the JIA and gingivitis groups ( P < 0.05). Saliva TNF-α levels were similar between groups ( P > 0.05). PI, GI, BOP and TNF-α were positively associated with salivary IL-17 ( P < 0.001). Conclusion: Elevated salivary IL-17 and TAS levels could be used as biological markers for discriminating the clinical health status of children with JIA and gingivitis. |
