Analysis of the microelement composition of saliva in patients with comorbidities

Abstract

The microelement composition of saliva makes it possible to analyze the processes occurring in the oral cavity and the body as a whole, both under conditions of normal functioning and in the presence of pathological processes. At the same time, the technical simplicity of performing trace element analysis of salivary fluid as a possible diagnostic criterion for various diseases contributes to a significant number of studies devoted to the search for possible correlations between the trace element composition of salivary fluid and various types of pathologies. The possibility of using the analysis of the microelement composition of saliva in determining concomitant pathologies of organs and systems of the body as a whole is a promising direction in scientific research, including applied research. The article analyzes the possibilities of using microelement analysis of saliva in such pathologies as psoriasis, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, diabetes mellitus, pathology of the cardiovascular system, giardiasis, oncological diseases. It is noted that at present, the determination of the microelement composition of saliva in various pathological conditions is considered as a promising clinical direction that allows for the simultaneous diagnosis of several diseases in real time.
