Malignant transformation of oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions: A meta-analysis of 20095 patient data.

TLDR
A higher incidence of malignant transformation was found among smokers, alcoholics, and HCV-infected patients; however, these associations should be further investigated.

Mucocutaneous diseases of the oral cavity

TL;DR: This review will focus on common and clinically significant oral mucocutaneous diseases and is intended to be a supplement to specialist texts and resources.

Expression profile of DNA repair proteins and histone H3 lys-9 acetylation in cutaneous and oral lichen planus.

TL;DR: Changes in the expression profile of the DNA repair proteins exerted greater influence in pathogenesis of cutaneous lichen planus than oral lichenPlanus, in addition, H3K9 histone acetylation is an epigenetic event found in both lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A modern view on the etiology and pathogenesis of lichen planus and lichenoid lesions of the oral mucosa

TL;DR: In a comprehensive examination of these patients, it is very important to analyze not only the clinical features of oral forms of lichen planus, but also to evaluate the topographic location of morphological elements, their symmetry, and size to allow for an accurate diagnosis.

Is Topical Application of Hyaluronic Acid in Oral Lichen Planus Effective? A Randomized Controlled Crossover Study

TL;DR: Significant effects of HA on inflammatory mediators and clinical parameters in OLP patients could not be proven, although a trend in clinical severity improvement could be observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of putative laryngeal and pharyngeal lichen planus lesions: an endoscopic preliminary evaluation in 16 patients

TL;DR: This study points towards the presence of pharyngolaryngeal lichenoid lesions with unknown neoplastic potential in OLP patients, and the clinical value of a complete, periodical, upper aerodigestive tract evaluation in lichen planus patients needs to be specifically evaluated.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical evaluation of the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for the assessment of the quality of nonrandomized studies in meta-analyses

TL;DR: The quality assessment of non-randomized studies is an important component of a thorough meta-analysis of non randomized studies and can dramatically influence the interpretation of meta-analyses, and can even reverse conclusions regarding the effectiveness of an intervention.

Insertion of specific bases during DNA synthesis past the oxidation-damaged base 8-oxodG.

TL;DR: DCMP and dAMP are incorporated selectively opposite 8-oxodG with transient inhibition of chain extension occurring 3' to the modified base, and the potentially mutagenic insertion of dAMP is targeted exclusively to the site of the lesion.
