To estimate the serum and salivary lactate dehydrogenase levels in cigarette smokers and non-smokers.
In this study lactate dehydrogenase levels were estimated in 30 healthy individuals with no tobacco related habits and in 30 patients with history of smoking cigarettes for a minimum of 2 years using Spectrophotometry.
The mean values for serum and salivary lactate dehydrogenase levels were higher in cigarette smokers when compared to non-smokers. Serum lactate dehydrogenase levels on comparison between the groups was statistically significant (p=0.04). The values of salivary lactate dehydrogenase levels between the groups was highly significant (p<0.001).
Cigarette smoking leads to an increase in serum as well as salivary Lactate dehydrogenase levels as indicator of tissue damage in the oral cavity. The present study indicates saliva as a better test medium than serum in determination of lactate dehydrogenase levels.
评估吸烟者与非吸烟者血清及唾液中乳酸脱氢酶水平。
本研究采用分光光度法,对30名无烟草相关习惯的健康个体以及30名有至少2年吸烟史的患者的乳酸脱氢酶水平进行评估。
与非吸烟者相比,吸烟者血清及唾液中乳酸脱氢酶的平均值更高。两组间血清乳酸脱氢酶水平比较具有统计学意义(p = 0.04)。两组间唾液乳酸脱氢酶水平差异具有高度统计学意义(p < 0.001)。
吸烟会导致血清及唾液中乳酸脱氢酶水平升高,作为口腔组织损伤的指标。本研究表明,在测定乳酸脱氢酶水平时,唾液是比血清更好的检测介质。
