Item Peri-Implant Crevicular Fluid And Serum Levels Of Soluble ST2 In Peri-Implant Diseases: A Pilot Study(2023) Ozgur, Engin; Topcu, Deniz Ilhan; Bayraktar, Nilufer; Alptekin, Nilgun Ozlem; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7911-198X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1219-6368; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7886-3688; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4104-6462; 36504319; E-3717-2019; Y-8758-2018; G-1816-2014Background and ObjectiveSoluble ST2 (sST2) is a current biomarker of cardiovascular disease. It is used to predict susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases and to analyze their prognosis. Serum sST2 level increases in inflammatory diseases such as periodontitis. However, the level of sST2 in peri-implant diseases and crevicular fluid has not been investigated yet. Thus, the aim of this cross-sectional study is to analyze the level of sST2 in peri-implant health and diseases. MethodsSixty-nine participants were divided into 3 groups as peri-implant health (PH), peri-implant mucositis (PM), and peri-implantitis (P-I). Peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) and serum samples were collected from each participant. The levels of sST2 and IL-6 in PICF and sST2, IL-6, and CRP in serum were compared between the groups. Pocket depth (PD), modified bleeding index (mBI), modified plaque index (mPI), keratinized mucosa index (KTW), and gingival/mucosal recession (REC) were recorded as clinical parameters. Biomarkers in the serum and PICF were analyzed by ELISA kit. ResultsSixty-nine patients were included in the study. The differences in the following parameters were statistically significant between groups: age (p = .009), implant function time (p = .027), PD (p < .001), mBI (p < .001), mPI (p < .001), and KTW (p = .043). The PICF volume of P-I and PM groups were statistically higher than PH (p < .001). The amount of sST2 in P-I and PM groups were higher than PH (p = .043). Serum CRP was higher in the P-I group than in other groups (p = .034). There were no significant differences in serum sST2 (p = .247) and IL-6 (p = .110) levels between groups. ConclusionThe PICF levels of sST2 were significantly higher in PM and P-I groups compared to the healthy group. However, no significant difference was observed between the groups in terms of serum sST2 level.Item Consensus Statement of Endocrinology, Cardiology, and Nephrology(ENCARNE) Experts on Prevention, Diagnosis, and Management of Cardiovascular and Renal Complications of Diabetes(2021) Altay, HakanAn array of medical practitioners, including endocrinologists, family physicians, internal medicine specialists in nephrology and cardiology, unceasingly investigate, diagnose and treat over 8 million diabetic patients in Turkey. Apart from routine glycemic regulation, several frequent coexisting comorbidities such as obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and their associated complications should also be promptly managed. Due to the concomitant occurrence of complications, the involvement of additional specialties in the precise management of such conditions becomes indispensable. Owing to the ever-expanding knowledge about the prevalence and clinical manifestations of diabetes, various international medical societies publish annual diabetes guidelines, which makes it too cumbersome as well as challenging for the practicing physicians to follow these comprehensive guidelines in clinical practice. There is an unmet need for an easyto-read and concise document for all physicians working for diabetes management for a standardized approach for better management of diabetes and improved patient care. This consensus report was prepared collectively by the Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism Turkey, Turkish Society of Cardiology, Turkish Society of Nephrology, Turkish Society of Hypertension and Renal Diseases to prevent cardiac and renal complications of diabetes, to timely detect these complications by using pertinent measures and to develop, implement and monitor strategies for managing them effectively.
