To evaluate clinical oral and salivary parameters of individuals with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).
Clinical parameters and whole saliva were collected from children aged 6 to 12 years with JIA (n = 36) and from a healthy, matched control group (n = 36). The clinical and salivary parameters evaluated were the dental caries (decayed, missing, or filled teeth), gingival and simplified oral hygiene indices, salivary flow rate, pH, buffer capacity, total protein, and secretory immunoglobulin A concentrations.
JIA individuals presented poorer oral hygiene (P ≤ .05) but no difference in the dental caries and gingival indices. JIA patients presented an increase in total protein concentration (86%) and buffer capacity in the range of pH 6.9 to 6.0 (10%) and a reduction in initial pH (6%), buffer capacity in the range of pH ≥ 7.0 (50%), and immunoglobulin A concentration (27%) (P ≤ .05).
JIA is associated with poor oral hygiene and salivary changes, including reductions in immune factors and an altered profile of salivary buffer capacity.
评估幼年特发性关节炎(JIA)患者的口腔临床和唾液参数。
从 6 至 12 岁患有 JIA(n = 36)的儿童和健康的匹配对照组(n = 36)中收集临床参数和全唾液。评估的临床和唾液参数包括龋齿(龋齿、缺失或填充的牙齿)、牙龈和简化口腔卫生指数、唾液流率、pH 值、缓冲能力、总蛋白和分泌型免疫球蛋白 A 浓度。
JIA 患者的口腔卫生较差(P ≤.05),但龋齿和牙龈指数无差异。JIA 患者的总蛋白浓度增加(86%),pH 值为 6.9 至 6.0 范围内的缓冲能力增加(10%),初始 pH 值降低(6%),pH 值≥7.0 范围内的缓冲能力降低(50%),免疫球蛋白 A 浓度降低(27%)(P ≤.05)。
JIA 与口腔卫生不良和唾液变化有关,包括免疫因子减少和唾液缓冲能力的改变。
