Official Title: The Role of Toll-like Receptor-4 in Periodontitis Patients with End-stage Renal Disease in a Sample of Egyptian Population
Brief Summary:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health issue in Egypt, leading to end-stage renal disease (ESRD).ESRD patients often suffer from oral abnormalities due to the disease and medications.Periodontitis is linked to systemic diseases, including renal disease, with inflammation playing a key role.TLR4 genetic variations may influence susceptibility to CKD and periodontitis.This study investigates the association between TLR4 [Gly/Thr (rs2149356)] polymorphism and chronic periodontal disease in…
