NCT ID NCT07628803
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at 160 healthy adults to see if a blood test marker called Pan-Immune-Inflammation Value (PIV) is linked to the severity of gum disease. Researchers measured gum inflammation and compared it to PIV from routine blood work. The goal was to explore if this blood marker could help assess gum disease without a dental exam.
