Brief Summary:
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationship between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and periodontitis, and to evaluate the potential mediating role of dietary inflammatory potential, measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), in this association.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Does a pro-inflammatory diet, as reflected by a higher DII score, exacerbate periodontal inflammation in individuals with chronic kidney disease?
Participants will include adults diagnosed with CKD at various stages. Periodontal status will be assessed through clinical parameters such as probing depth, clinical attachment loss, and bleeding on probing. Dietary intake will be evaluated using a validated food frequency questionnaire, and DII scores will be calculated accordingly. The study will aim to observe and analyze whether dietary inflammation contributes to increased periodontal disease severity in CKD patients, potentially offering insight into modifiable risk factors relevant to both systemic and oral health.
Detailed Description:
This observational study will aim to investigate the association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and periodontitis, with a specific focus on the potential role of dietary inflammatory potential measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII). Adult participants diagnosed with CKD will be enrolled and their periodontal status will be evaluated using standard clinical parameters, including plaque index, probing depth, clinical attachment loss, and bleeding on probing. Dietary intake data will be collected through a validated food frequency questionnaire, and individual DII scores will be calculated to estimate the inflammatory potential of each participant's diet. The study will analyze whether higher dietary inflammatory load is associated with increased periodontal disease severity in individuals with CKD. Findings from this study are expected to contribute to a better understanding of the interplay between systemic disease, oral health, and modifiable lifestyle factors such as diet.
