Association of Glycated Proteins with Inflammatory Proteins and Periodontal Disease Parameters

Table 3

Correlation of glycated proteins with periodontal and anthropometric parameters in all study subjects (). Spearman rho coefficient was used to calculate between two variables. values < 0.05 were considered significant.
