“…Results on SSFR, BC, and pH revealed that the variables at the three sessions of hemodialysis presented no significant difference from the results of healthy subjects. These findings were unexpected as they are in direct contrast with the findings from most studies in the literature [28,29], which have reported a significantly reduced mean salivary flow in uremic patients. According to these authors, the quantitative change in salivary flow is directly associated with uremia involving salivary glands and a lower degree of hydration due to the restriction of fluid ingestion.…”

“…In other studies there was no difference in the incidence of DMFT between the controls and uremic patients. 13,15,16 On assessing the CPI index, both study groups had a low incidence of code 0 (healthy periodontium) and code 1 (bleeding on gentle probing). Code X (excluded) was found to be greater in diabetic group, having statistically significant difference that indicated greater tooth loss in diabetic group, the results being consistent with the previous study.…”

“…These findings are similar to a Nigerian study that reported a mean UWS of 0.75 ml/min for the controls/health patients while comparing the salivary flow and composition in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. 15 Other studies that presented similar results include Kho et al, 8 Bayraktar et al, 16 Skopouli et al 17 and…”
