Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of gene polymorphism IL-1B +3953 and TNF-A-308 and the genetic susceptibility to moderate-to-advanced adult periodontitis(AP). METHODS: PCR-RFLP technique was used to identify IL-1B +3953 and TNF-A-308 genotype. Multivariate logistic regression model was utilized to assess the relationship of IL-1B +3953 and TNF-A-308 positive genotype to disease status while adjusting for...
