Abstract

Family-based and genome-wide studies suggest that genetic differences significantly influence an individual’s lifetime risk for kidney disease. Aimed to: find out if there are relationship between kidney failure disease and family genetic history. Material and Methods: Data were collected using interviewer-administered questionnaires. Data from the biochemical analysis and questionnaire with a Google form survey were recorded in Microsoft Excel. Results: The percentage of Gender for hemodialysis patients males 61(57.6%) more than females 45(42.5%), the correlation between age and other variables is quite weak (R = 0.098, P = 0.315). Gender also shows a weak correlation with other variables (R = 0.049, P = 0.616). There is a significant correlation between having a family member with a parathyroid gland issue and other factors (R = 0.248, P < 0.010). The strongest correlation found is between having a family member who suffers or has suffered from kidney failure and other factors (R = 0.277, P = 0.004). Conclusion:  The weak correlations with age and gender indicate that these factors might not be central to the study's main findings. The strongest correlation found is between having a family member who suffers or has suffered from kidney failure and other factors.

Abstract

Objective: To find out if scaling and root planing for periodontal disease during pregnancy lowers the incidence of preterm births. Methods: This is a meta-analysis study design; searches were conducted in the PubMed database and on Google Scholar between January 2000 and December 2023. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were considered. The studies will be examined to determine the relationship between non-surgical periodontal treatment and preterm birth rates among pregnant women. Results: Only 14 trials were included out of 194 articles identified. The overall result indicated a statistically significant reduction in preterm birth rate when we use the random effects model (odds ratio 0.64, 95% CI: 0.46 to 0.89; p = 0.008). Conclusions: This meta-analysis demonstrates that treating chronic periodontitis with scaling and root planing in pregnant women has a significant impact on reducing the incidence of preterm birth rate. Periodontal disease is common in pregnancy, resulting in a lower quality of life, frequent systemic pathologies, and poor pregnancy outcomes. Given the negative consequences, public health implications, and large disease burden, it is worthwhile to look into more aspects of periodontal disease during pregnancy. Further well-organized studies are still needed.
