Epidemiological data from the Swedish Cancer Registry of new cases of malignant major and accessory salivary gland tumors in Sweden between 1960 and 1989 are presented, including the total number and the age-standardised incidence rate per 1 million population, by site and sex, I(s). An analysis of the various histopathological types of malignant salivary gland tumours in the different sublocations is also given. A comparison is made between the three 10-year periods 1960-1969, 1970-1979 and 1980-1989 regarding total number and I(s).

Article Synopsis
  • SCCE plays a role in breaking down structures in the outer layer of skin (stratum corneum) during the shedding process (desquamation).
  • Previous studies indicated that SCCE is particularly found in squamous epithelia that are undergoing a process called terminal differentiation and keratinization.
  • The research showed that SCCE is strongly expressed in certain oral diseases that cause abnormal keratinization, suggesting it could serve as a reliable marker for this differentiation process within squamous epithelia.

The occurrence of different life-style patterns, including marital status, educational level, nutrition, tobacco and alcohol use, and frequency of physical activity, in patients with oral lichenoid reactions (OLR) in total or partial contact with amalgam fillings was examined. When compared with an age- and sex-matched control group, the daily intake of carbohydrates, fibers, and iron was statistically significantly higher in the OLR patients. Regarding marital status, there was a statistically significant difference between the OLR patients and the control subjects, the former group containing more people who were divorced or whose spouse had died.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed 87 odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) from 57 patients treated between 1974 and 1993, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.5:1 and a majority of cases in the 10-19, 20-29, 40-49, and 60-69 age groups.
  • Almost 75% of OKCs were found in the mandible, particularly in the angle and ascending ramus, with an overall recurrence rate of 30.5%, and the symphysial area showing the highest rate at 50%.
  • Histological examination revealed microkeratocysts in 16% of cases, with parakeratosis in 89.5

Objective And Study Design: Forty-nine consecutive patients with clinically diagnosed oral lichenoid reactions in contact with amalgam fillings were studied clinically and histologically. The long-term effect of replacement of these fillings was also examined.

Results: Seventeen (35%) patients showed positive reactions to mercury at the epicutaneous patch test that was carried out before treatment.
