This study looks at how certain fibers and probiotics might affect uric acid levels in your body. You'll provide a stool sample, and it will be tested in a lab to see if these ingredients can help lower uric acid.
This study looks at how certain blood and saliva measurements relate to gum disease and healing after a deep cleaning. It may help find better ways to track gum health.
This study looks at how gum disease (periodontitis) relates to metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that raise your risk for heart disease and diabetes. It measures the surface area of gum inflammation to better understand this link, which may lead to better prevention and care.
This study looks at whether the level of a protein called high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (a sign of inflammation) in your blood and mouth rinse is related to the severity of gum disease. If you join, you'll provide samples to help researchers understand this connection, which could improve how gum disease is monitored.
This study looks at how gum disease (periodontitis) and chronic kidney disease are connected. By joining, you'll help researchers understand if treating one might affect the other.
This study looks at whether severe gum disease (periodontitis) is linked to stiffer arteries and higher heart risk. If you have advanced gum disease or healthy gums, you may be able to join to help researchers understand this connection.
