Filter by:To investigate the role of Vitamin D (VD) deficiency as a risk factor for the development and malignant transformation of Oral lichen planus (OLP) taking into consideration sex, dietary habits, sun exposure, socioeconomic status and psychological factors.
Psoriasis and lichen planus often occur at mechanically irritated skin sites (e.g. tight clothing). The investigators would like to investigate this phenomenon in more detail in this study. For this purpose, the skin is specifically irritated at a small and cosmetically favorable site by tearing off scotch tape or rubbing with a wooden spatula. In order to be able to examine the inflammatory processes caused by the irritation more closely, a small skin sample and a skin swab are taken from the irritated area. This skin sample and the swab are repeated after three and fourteen days.
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a common chronic inflammatory disease of Oral mucosa. The pathogenesis of OLP is not clear, and there is no effective method to cure it. In vitro, previous studies have shown that oral mucosal mesenchymal stem cell cells (MSCs) can secrete Ido, which is involved in the pathogenesis of OLP. It has been proved that mental disorders such as depression and anxiety play an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of OLP. Mental stress factors can cause abnormal changes of inflammatory factors, leading to immune dysfunction, which is also one of the main causes of OLP. In this study, we integrated the advantages of stomatology, psychiatry, neurobiology and traditional Chinese medicine, focused on the clinical problems of mental disorders with oral mucosal comorbidity, and assessed the depressive and anxiety status of OLP patients, so as to improve the therapeutic effect of OLP.
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa and is considered a precancerous condition. It is characterized by white reticular changes in the oral mucosa, which can progress to erosions and cause pain in severe cases. The pathogenesis of OLP is still unclear, but it is believed to be a T-lymphocyte-mediated autoimmune disease. Currently, only symptomatic treatments are available, and there is no definitive cure. In this project, we plan to use TCM differentiation to categorize OLP patients and conduct a randomized controlled clinical trial to demonstrate the enhanced therapeutic effect of paeoniflorin combined with photodynamic therapy for OLP. The implementation of this project will provide new insights into the clinical management of OLP, improve our understanding of the treatment mechanisms, and have important theoretical and clinical implications.
Vulvovaginal skin conditions, namely vaginal atrophy, lichen sclerosus, lichen simplex chronicus and lichen planus affecting the female adult population will be treated with a novel gel dressing to test the short- and long-term safety and efficacy of the device.
this study evaluates the effect of diode laser in treatment of oral lichen planus.
The aim of the study will be to evaluate the efficacy of a tissue autofluorescence detection system as an aid to clinical screening in identifying lesions of the oral mucosa. The screening process will be performed by 3 clinicians with a different level of experience. Sensitivity and specificity tests will be conducted.
1. Compare the clinical efficacy of topical ginger extract versus triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% for symptomatic oral lichen planus (Primary Objective). 2. Investigate using immunohistochemical analysis the effect of the two different treatment modalities on FasL expression in oral lichen planus lesions (Secondary Objective).
According to recent research, microRNAs (miRNAs) may function as early disease indicators and contribute to the severity of a number of precancerous and malignant oral disorders. The aim of the present study, through a double-blind randomized controlled trial design, is to analyze in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) as a non-invasive approach the impact of topical clobetasol on miRNAs expression in subjects affected by oral lichen planus (OLP).
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the skin, mucous membranes,s and rarely scalp and nails. It is a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Traditional treatment for OLP is topical steroids commonly used to treat mild to moderately symptomatic lesions. Recent treatment modalities for oral lichen planus include micronutrients such as antioxidants including vitamin E that modify the immune system function. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of adjunctive oral systemic vitamin E therapy on salivary nitric oxide levels in patients with erosive oral lichen planus.
