Additionally, we found that the FGD5-AS1 expression levels in patients with good prognosis were remarkably higher than those in patients with poor prognosis, while the miR-130a expression levels were remarkably lower than those in patients with poor prognosis; this indicated that the FGD5-AS1 and miR-130a expression levels were tied to the prognosis of periodontitis patients. The gene discussed is FGD5; the disease is periodontitis.
