Abstract
Background: Salivary compounds can be used as diagnostic markers for changes in the oral cavity that cause oral problems in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: This meta-analysis searched PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Scopus and Cochrane Library, and the Web of Science until Nov 2023. The observational studies included patients with T2DM and healthy controls aged > 18 yr with no oral health problems or systematic or periodontal diseases. The Quality in Prognostic Studies (QUIPS) tool was used to evaluate the risk of bias. The random-effects model was constructed using standardized mean differences (SMD).
Results: The meta-analysis analyzed 13 observational studies that included 519 patients with T2DM and 356 healthy controls. Non-fasting periods of 30 min to 8 h were used to measure salivary profiles. Overall, salivary proinflammatory mediators favored patients with T2DM (SMD: 1.66; CI95%: 0.42, 2.91, P<0.01) compared with healthy subjects. Subgroup analysis revealed that interleukin-6 (SMD: 1.33; CI95%: -0.04, 2.69, P<0.05), followed by interleukin-8 (SMD: 0.92; CI95%: -0.71, 2.55, P<0.13), was greater in patients with T2DM than in healthy subjects. Among patients with T2DM, network analysis identified salivary factors most closely associated with male sex (i.e., tumor necrosis factor), female sex (i.e., interleukin-8), fasting plasma glucose (i.e., C-reactive protein), HbA1c (i.e., IL-8), and age (i.e., C-reactive protein).
Conclusion: Overall, salivary IL-6 levels were greater in patients with T2DM and might be considered for monitoring oral changes. Moreover, network analysis could identify different salivary components that were most closely associated with patient characteristics.
期刊介绍：
Iranian Journal of Public Health has been continuously published since 1971, as the only Journal in all health domains, with wide distribution (including WHO in Geneva and Cairo) in two languages (English and Persian). From 2001 issue, the Journal is published only in English language. During the last 41 years more than 2000 scientific research papers, results of health activities, surveys and services, have been published in this Journal. To meet the increasing demand of respected researchers, as of January 2012, the Journal is published monthly. I wish this will assist to promote the level of global knowledge. The main topics that the Journal would welcome are: Bioethics, Disaster and Health, Entomology, Epidemiology, Health and Environment, Health Economics, Health Services, Immunology, Medical Genetics, Mental Health, Microbiology, Nutrition and Food Safety, Occupational Health, Oral Health. We would be very delighted to receive your Original papers, Review Articles, Short communications, Case reports and Scientific Letters to the Editor on the above mentioned research areas.
