title: Cytokines in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic periodontitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
abstract: Individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic periodontitis have significantly higher levels of interleukin-1 beta compared with systemically healthy individuals with chronic periodontitis. However, there was no significant difference in gingival crevicular levels of other cytokines between individuals with and without T2DM.
