متن کاملAlterations in serum lipid profile patterns in patients with oral submucous fibrosis
Aim: Altered lipid profile patterns have been associated with pre-malignancies and malignancies because lipids play a vital role in the maintenance of cell integrity. The present study evaluated alterations in serum lipid profile in untreated patients with oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) and compared the changes in serum lipid profiles among various histological grades of OSF. Materials and metho...

متن کاملA study on mast cell number and lipid profile in oral submucous fibrosis.
AIMS Prevention of oral precancer is most desirable and should take precedence over its diagnosis and therapy. As both, mast cell counts in connective tissue and serum lipids are altered in Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSF), so study of both the factors is vitally important in OSF. METHODS A total of 50 persons were included in the study of which 40 were OSF patients and 10 controls. Tissue secti...
متن کاملOral submucous Fibrosis: An oral physician approach
