Objectives: A significant number of recently published research has outlined the contribution of perineural invasion (PNI) to clinical outcomes in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC), but some results remain conflicting. This study aimed to determine whether patients with OTSCC with PNI have a worse prognosis than those without PNI.

Materials And Methods: PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were queried for potentially eligible articles published up to December 2020.

OSCC (oral squamous carcinoma) is one of most common malignant cancer. Although previous studies have found abnormal expression of B7-H3 in human OSCC, the exact role and molecular mechanism of B7-H3 in OSCC remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of B7-H3 in glucose metabolic reprogramming of OSCC cells and .

Purpose: To retrospectively investigate infection by multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB) after rigid internal fixation (RIF) of mandibular fracture and determine risk factors and cure methods.

Patients And Methods: From 2009 through 2014, 933 patients with mandibular fracture were enrolled in the study. Fifteen variables were statistically analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression methods to investigate risk factors for MDRB infection after RIF of mandibular fracture.
