    Aim: To provide an update of the systematic review by Engebretson and Kocher J Clin Periodontol. 2013 Apr;40 Suppl 14:S153 on the effect of periodontal therapy on glycaemic control of people with diabetes. Methods: PubMed Literature search restricted to meta-analyses published from 2013 to the present was conducted. The search resulted in seven meta-analyses of RCTs. Results: Reduction in HbA1c at 3–4 months was reported in all reviews for the treatment group ranging from −0.27% (95% CI: −0.46, −0.07, p =.007) to −1.03% (95% CI: 0.36, −1.70, p = 0.003). At 6 months post-treatment, an HbA1c reduction ranging from −0.02 (95% CI: −0.20, −0.16, p =.84) to −1.18% (95% CI: 0.72%, 1.64%, p < 0.001) was reported. Clinical relevance: The magnitude of the reduction in HbA1c, which is found to be associated with non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with diabetes, seems to have clinically significant effects on systemic health, and thus should have a place in the treatment of diabetic patients. Conclusions: Periodontal treatment (SRP) results in a statistically significant reduction in HbA1C levels at 3 months, with a lower reduction at 6 months. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

    Σκοπός της έρευνας είναι : Να αποδείξουμε την ευεργετική επίδραση, της τακτικής προετοιμασίας αυτής καθ’ αυτής, της λαβής με χρησιμοποίηση των ανισορροπιών και των παραπλανητικών κινήσεων (ξεγελασμάτων) στην αποτελεσματικότητα των τεχνικών ενεργειών. Η διεθνής εμπειρία έχει αναγνωρίσει το πρόβλημα της αποτελεσματικότητας της τεχνικο-τακτικής δεξιότητας σε αγωνιστικές συνθήκες. Πιστεύουμε ότι η αναζήτηση πιο ορθολογικών και αποτελεσματικών μέσων και μεθόδων για την αύξηση της αποτελεί ένα από τους πιο σοβαρούς προβληματισμούς των προπονητών. Για τις ανάγκες της επίτευξης του σκοπού της εργασίας έγινε αναζήτηση άρθρων από την ηλεκτρονική βιβλιοθήκη της Scholar google στο διαδίκτυο καθώς και από τη βιβλιοθήκη του Τ.Ε.Φ.Α.Α. Οι λέξεις κλειδιά που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν ήταν: Greco-roman, body posture, training, imbalance. Τα άρθρα ήταν στην αγγλική γλώσσα. Όσον αφορά το ερευνητικό μέρος της εργασίας χρησιμοποιήθηκαν Ενόργανοι μέθοδοι έρευνας (εγγραφή σε βίντεο, χρονομέτρηση σε συνθήκες αγώνων). Η Στατιστική επεξεργασία των δεδομένων: average (M), stdev (S), έγινε με το πρόγραμμα Excell 2010. Οι Ανισορροπίες: αποτελούν σημαντικότατο παράγοντα, καθώς φέρνουν τον αντίπαλο σε ευνοϊκότερη θέση, η επίτευξη των ανισορροπιών είναι δυνατή με τη χρησιμοποίηση της δύναμης της ώθησης ή της έλξης του αντιπάλου, μεγάλη σημασία έχει ο σωστός συγχρονισμός των κινήσεων της έλξης και της ώθησης για το πλησίασμα και την είσοδο του Κ.Β. σώματος του επιτιθέμενου κάτω από το Κ.Β. του αντίπαλου για την επίτευξη της λαβής, χρησιμοποιώντας την αντίδραση ή την αδράνεια των κινήσεων του αντιπάλου οι λαβές μπορούν να εκτελεστούν με ελάχιστη ενεργειακή δαπάνη και μεγάλη αποτελεσματικότητα. Προτείνουμε κατά την φάση της αφομοίωσης και της τελειοποίησης της τεχνικής ενέργειας (εμβάθυνση της εξειδίκευσης) να διδάσκεται ενιαία η τακτική προετοιμασία της λαβής (ανισορροπίες - παραπλανητικές κινήσεις) και η λαβή αυτή καθ αυτή.Ν

    A randomized, controlled trial on the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Part I: Effect on periodontal status and glycaemic control

    Aim: The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on glycaemic control of type 2 diabetes patients with moderate-to-severe periodontitis. Materials and methods: This was a randomized, controlled clinical trial of patients with type 2 diabetes. A total of 60 patients with moderate-to-severe periodontal disease were assigned to either a periodontal treatment arm, consisting of scaling and root planing (intervention group [IG]), or a delayed treatment arm that received periodontal care after 6 months (control group [CG]). Periodontal parameters and glycosylated haemoglobin (A1C) were evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months. Results: All periodontal parameters improved significantly in the IG. A1C levels decreased statistically significantly more in the IG versus the CG (0.72%versus 0.13%; p<0.01) independently of other confounders. Conclusions: This study provides evidence that periodontal treatment contributes to improved glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Larger controlled trials are needed to confirm if this finding is generalizable to other populations of patients with type 2 diabetes. © 2010 John Wiley & Sons A/S

    Effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on C-reactive protein, oxidative stress, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and MMP-2 levels in patients with type 2 diabetes: A randomized controlled study

    No full text
    Background: It is well accepted that glycemic control in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is affected by systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. The effect of periodontal therapy on these systemic factors may be related to improvement on glycemic status. The aim of the present study is to assess over a period of 6 months the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), d-8-iso prostaglandin F2a (d-8-iso) as a marker of oxidative stress, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 on patients with type 2 DM. Methods: Sixty participants with type 2 DM and moderate to severe periodontal disease were randomized into intervention (IG) and control (CG) groups. IG received scaling and root planing, whereas CG received supragingival cleaning at baseline and scaling and root planing at 6 months. Participants of both groups were evaluated at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months. Periodontal data recorded at each visit included probing depth, clinical attachment loss, bleeding onprobing, and gingival index. Bloodwas collected at each visit for the assay of serum glycated hemoglobin A1c (A1c), hsCRP, d-8-iso, MMP-2, and MMP-9. Results: Although there was a trend to a reduction in hsCRP, d-8-iso and MMP-9 it did not reach statistical significance. MMP-2 levels remained unchanged after periodontal treatment. Conclusion: Effective non-surgical periodontal treatment of participants with type 2 DM and moderate to severe periodontal disease improved significantly A1c levels but did not result in a statistically significant improvement in hsCRP, d-8-iso,MMP-2, and MMP-9 levels.
