Clinical and histopathological study of 11 cases of oral lichenoid lesions

TL;DR: In this article , the clinical and histopathological findings of 11 cases of OLL were retrospectively investigated, and the authors concluded that OLL is caused by dental metals, drugs and diseases such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
Journal ArticleDOI

A retrospective study on immunohistochemical evaluation of CD34 in the pathogenesis of oral lichen planus

TL;DR: In this article , the role of angiogenesis in lichen planus by the expression of CD34 immunohistochemistry was analyzed and appraised using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's multiple comparison test.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Comparison of Proliferative Capacity of Reticular and Erosive Variants of Oral Lichen Planus by Argyrophilic Nucleolar Organizer Regions Method

TL;DR: In this article , the argyrophilic nucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) method was used to detect the proliferative capacity of oral lichen planus (OLP) lesions.

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.

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.
