“…It is observed that salivary and serum glucose levels do not increase with age. Similar findings were observed by Sreedevi et al, 25 Darwazeh AMG et al In contrary to this finding Tenovuo J et al found that salivary glucose increased as age increased in diabetics, this can be attributed to individual variations in the leakage of glucose from blood into saliva. 26 In our study, the male to female ratio is almost equal which is in the ratio of 1.2 : 1 in type 1 DM patients.…”

“…We also noted that, with the increase in glucose concentration in serum there is increase in salivary glucose concentration. Reuterving et al, 5 Ben-Aryeh et al, 6 Shehla Amer et al 7 Sreedevi et al, 8 all reported increase in salivary glucose level in patients of diabetes mellitus in comparison to non diabetics. In our study, correlation between salivary glucose and serum glucose in diabetics and controls was carried out based on Pearson's correlation coefficient.…”

“…The complications of the diabetes results due to the micro-vascular changes in blood vessels and change in the basement membrane in diabetic patients. 9 Many theories have been put forth to explain the micro-vascular alterations. To summarize, hyperglycemia leads to increased advance glycosylation end products, commonly known as -AGEs‖.…”
