Sulcular exudate flow measurements were obtained from 45 subjects and compared to the clinical as well as histologic degrees of inflammation. The results of this investigation demonstrated no statistically significant difference between exudate flow and the clinical degree of inflammation while demonstrating a statistically significant difference between exudate flow and the clinical assessment of inflammation. It was proposed that current clinical indices do not accurately reflect the microscopic degree of gingival inflammation.
对45名受试者进行龈沟渗出液流量测量,并与炎症的临床及组织学程度进行比较。本研究结果表明,渗出液流量与炎症临床程度之间无统计学显著差异,而渗出液流量与炎症临床评估之间存在统计学显著差异。有人提出,目前的临床指标不能准确反映牙龈炎症的微观程度。
