This study was evaluated the relationship between blood glucose levels and salivary pH and buffering capacity in type II diabetic patients. The sample comprised 210 participants (age ranged 40-60 years). Based on fasting blood glucose levels the participants were divided into 3 groups: controls with normal blood glucose levels; diabetic patients with levels ≤ 200 mg/dL; and diabetic patients with levels > 200 mg/dL. Salivary pH and buffering capacity were determined in a sample of resting (non-stimulated) saliva taken from each participant. Salivary pH levels in diabetic patients with blood glucose levels > 200 mg/dL were lower than in the controls and diabetic patients with levels ≤ 200 mg/dL. Salivary pH levels were comparable in controls and diabetic patients with blood glucose levels ≤ 200 mg/dL. Salivary buffering capacity in the 3 groups was comparable.
本研究评估了II型糖尿病患者血糖水平与唾液pH值及缓冲能力之间的关系。样本包括210名参与者（年龄在40至60岁之间）。根据空腹血糖水平，参与者被分为3组：血糖水平正常的对照组；血糖水平≤200mg/dL的糖尿病患者；血糖水平>200mg/dL的糖尿病患者。从每个参与者采集的静息（非刺激）唾液样本中测定唾液pH值和缓冲能力。血糖水平>200mg/dL的糖尿病患者的唾液pH值低于对照组和血糖水平≤200mg/dL的糖尿病患者。对照组和血糖水平≤200mg/dL的糖尿病患者的唾液pH值相当。3组的唾液缓冲能力相当。
