“…Previous studies have been investigated the association of salivary components, such as Ig-A, with different oral conditions [3, 6, 8, 35]. In the current study, uncontrolled diabetic patients with oral candidiasis, white plaque, abscesses, or xerostomia had higher s-IgA levels compared to the controlled diabetic participants; however, no significant differences were observed between the uncontrolled diabetic patients and the healthy participants.…”

“…Conversely, Salles et al [34] reported a lower s-IgA concentration in diabetic patients compared to non-diabetic individuals, which is probably related to the non-homogeneous gender distribution and the use of both T1DM and T2DM patients in their research. Another study conducted by Bhuyan et al [35] demonstrated lower level of s-IgA in diabetic patient’s specially uncontrolled diabetic ones. Moreover, others found no significant differences [5, 28, 36].…”

“…Although, some studies showed higher rate of IgA deficiency in diabetic patients [ 2 , 18 ], in our study the frequency of selective IgA deficiency in patient and control groups was similar. Genetic susceptibility and ethnic background or the method of selection or sampling of study population might be explained these differences.…”

“…Although, several studies showed an elevated mean of serum IgA concentration in type 1 and type2 diabetic patients specially for those with complications compared to controls. [ 18 – 22 ] in our study the mean of serum IgA concentration in diabetics was lower than control. Absence of infection, complications or other autoimmune disorders in our patients could be explained this contrary result.…”
