A total of thirty subjects were selected based on their body mass index for the study. The subjects were divided into three groups of 10 patients each: Group {u2160}: Healthy periodontium, Group {u2161}: Chronic periodontitis and Group {u2162}: Aggressive periodontitis. GCF samples were collected to estimate leptin levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
