Objectives: Serum level of vitamin D has been used as a predictor for cancer development. We intend to measure the baseline vitamin D level in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to compare same with non-cancer controls to determine any association.
Materials And Methods: Patients with OSCC presenting to our clinics were included in this study.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating 3D biodegradable scaffolds made from a blend of nanochitosan, silk fibroin, and hyaluronic acid to support bone regeneration.
- The scaffolds were characterized using various techniques, which confirmed strong bonding between the materials and a well-structured porous design beneficial for cell growth.
- Laboratory tests showed the scaffolds promote the growth and mineralization of bone cells, as well as exhibit antibacterial properties, indicating their potential use in tissue engineering.
Objectives: To assess the prevalence of periodontal disease among patients undergoing renal dialysis.
Methods: Sixty hemodialysis patients (30 males, 30 females) with a mean age of 44.4±9.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFLymphomas of the oral cavity are rare and typically present as intraosseous lesions that are most commonly diffuse large B-cell type. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive B-cell lymphoma histologically characterized by diffuse proliferation of large neoplastic B-lymphoid cells with a nuclear size equal to or exceeding normal histiocytic nuclei. A case of DLBCL of the mandible in an 18 years old male patient is presented.
