Abstract
Our meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of localized sustained-release drugs in periodontitis and comorbid diabetes. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science were comprehensively searched until 4 December 2024, and 10 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included. The results indicated that, compared to the control group, localized sustained-release drugs significantly reduced probing depth (PD) (SMD = −0.77, 95% confidence interval [CI] (−1.37, −0.16)) but did not reduce clinical attachment loss (CAL) (SMD = −0.18, 95% CI (−0.60, 0.23)), sites with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (SMD = 0.03, 95% CI (−0.38, 0.43)), plaque index (SMD = −0.37, 95% CI (−0.80, 0.06)), sites with bleeding on probing (BOP) (SMD = −0.26, 95% CI (−0.68, 0.16)), and gingival index (SMD = 0.07, 95% CI (−0.30, 0.44)). Subgroup analysis by different drugs elicited that, compared to the control treatment, chlorhexidine was effective in reducing BOP% (SMD = −0.55, 95% CI (−0.90, −0.19)). Our meta-analysis finds that the efficacy of localized sustained-release drugs in periodontitis and comorbid diabetes is limited.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
