Clinical Trial: Oral Health, Saliva Bacteria, and Disease Activity in Children With JIA: A Cross-Sectional Study.

U.S., Sept. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07799831) titled 'Oral Health, Saliva Bacteria, and Disease Activity in Children With JIA: A Cross-Sectional Study.' on Aug. 28.

Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn about the relationship between disease activity and oral health status in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The main question it aims to answer is:

Is disease activity associated with oral health in children with JIA? Do children with active disease have poorer oral health compared to those in clinical remission? Participants already receiving routine rheumatology care for JIA will undergo a single study visit. At that visit, disease activity ...
