oral soft tissue pathologies among diabetic patients in rasht- 2005
Authors
abstract
introduction: diabetes can affect organs including the oral mucosa. there is a disagreement about the prevalence of oral mucosal disease in diabetic patients. we therefore decided to investigate more about that. the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of soft tissue pathologies by assessing burning mouth and xerostomia in diabetic patients on the basis of type of diabetes and control status of diabetes. methods: this descriptive, analytic study was done by visiting 486 known diabetic patients who were referred to the endocrine clinic in summer of 2005. their demographic information with history of systemic diseases accompanied by the amount of hbaic and duration of disease was recorded in their questionnaire. diagnosis of oral lesions was done by clinical examination. burning mouth was assessed by visual analog scale in persons who suffered and subjective xerostomia was evaluated by standard questionnaire. data collection was done by software spss 10, and statistical analysis was done by x2 and logistic regression test. results: in this study, 34 patients were type i and 434 were type ii patients with mean age of 47.84±9.77 years. frequency of all candidasis lesions was 15.4% which included denture stomatitis 5.3%, angular cheilitis 4.1%, median rhomboid glossitis 1.5%and papillary atrophy of tongue 4.5%. frequency of non-candidal lesions was 20.1%, which included fissured tongue 10.5%, geographic tongue 7.9% and lichen planus 1.7%. 6.2% of patients suffered from glossodyna. 15.6% of patients had xerestomia. by logistical regression test, we found that type of diabetes affects denture stomatitis, angular cheilitis, tongue atrophy and amount of hba1c. conclusion: all of the pathologies were greater in type i than type ii diabetes patients. level of hba1c had an important role in appearance of oral lesions and level changes can cause problems in the mouth. thus, patients should maintain their oral hygiene and control their glucose regularly

Research Paper: Comparison of oral mucosal soft tissue lesions prevalence in diabetic patients and healthy subjects
Abstract Introduction: Type 2 diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases caused by environmental and genetic factors. The development of diabetes affects all organs of the body. Oral complications of diabetes cause discomfort and dissatisfaction for affected patients. In this study, we aimed to compare the prevalence of oral lesions between patients and healthy persons. Materials a...
full textOral Soft Tissue Metastases
Tumors that metastasize to the oral cavity, comprising only about 1% of all oral malignant neoplasms, rarely affect oral soft tissues. The aim of the present case series report is to retrospective study five patients with metastatic tumors to oral soft tissues, retrieved from an institution in southern Taiwan. The age, gender, sites and histological types of the primary tumor, sites of the oral...
full textModel-based probability of detection of pathologies in soft tissue
This contribution is aimed at presenting a computational method for assessment and prediction of mechanical property changes in soft tissue, in order to diagnose certain pathologies. This diagnostic technology is based on two components: a custom designed piezoelectric transducer that transmits and receives torsion ultrasound, and a model-based inverse problem that simulates using finite elemen...

PURPOSE Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients may experience post-treatment cardiotoxicity, yet no population-based data exist. We examined the incidence of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decline, heart failure, and cardiac death following STS diagnosis among adults, using Danish patient registries and medical record review. PATIENTS AND METHODS LVEF decline was examined in a regional...
full textdiode laser application in soft tissue oral surgery
introduction: diode laser with wavelengths ranging from 810 to 980 nm in a continuous or pulsed mode was used as a possible instrument for soft tissue surgery in the oral cavity. discussion: diode laser is one of laser systems in which photons are produced by electric current with wavelengths of 810, 940 and 980nm. the application of diode laser in soft tissue oral surgery has been evaluated fr...
