- Means ± standard deviation. No statistical difference found between groups for gender, age, and BoP. Note: CAL value = 0 for healthy controls, as there is no attachment loss present in any site
-
LAP localized aggressive periodontitis, HC healthy controls/mild gingivitis (< 25% BoP and no radiographic bone loss or attachment loss), PD mean pocket depth of affected sitesa (PD ≥ 5 mm with CAL ≥ 2 mm and radiographic bone loss), CAL mean clinical attachment level of affected sites, BoP bleeding on probing, NA not applicable as healthy controls did not present sites PD ≥ 5 with CAL ≥ 2 mm
- **p < 0.05 between LAP and HC; #
p < 0.05 between severe vs moderate LAP and HC
