AI Article Synopsis
- White lesions in the oral cavity can have various causes, leading to challenges in making accurate diagnoses due to similarities in appearance and histology.
- The article specifically examines the differences between developmental, reactive, idiopathic, premalignant, and malignant white lesions based on their clinical characteristics.
- It does not cover lesions related to immune or infectious causes, which are addressed in a separate article.
Article Abstract
White lesions in the oral cavity may be diverse in etiology and may present with significant clinical and sometimes histologic overlap between categories, making accurate diagnosis difficult at times. Although white lesions of immune and infectious etiology are covered in another article, this article discusses the differential diagnosis between developmental, reactive, idiopathic, premalignant, and malignant white lesions focusing on clinical features of each category.

First molecular characterisation of in a pig carcass condemned during routine meat inspection in Poland.
J Vet Res
December 2024
Department of Parasitology and Invasive Diseases, National Veterinary Research Institute, 24-100 Puławy, Poland.
Introduction: This article presents the fourth detection of macroscopic cystic lesions due to sarcocystosis in domestic pigs during routine meat inspection worldwide, and the first molecular detection of in a domestic pig in Poland. Pigs can become intermediate hosts for by accidental ingestion of oocysts or sporocysts present in food or water contaminated by the faeces of canids (definitive hosts).
Material And Methods: The affected swine showed no clinical symptoms such as weight loss, dermatitis or dyspnoea suggesting sarcocystosis.
Temporal epidemiological profile of oral potentially malignant disorders in southern Brazil.
Braz Oral Res

Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul - UFRGS, School of Dentistry, Deppartment of Oral Pathology, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil.
The study aimed to investigate oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) diagnosed in an Oral Pathology service in southern Brazil over a span of 56 years and to assess the factors influencing their severity and outcomes. A retrospective analysis of histopathological records from 1965 to 2021 was performed. Lesions diagnosed as leukoplakia, erythroplakia, leukoerythroplakia, or actinic cheilitis were included.

Anomalous origin of coronary arteries from the pulmonary artery (ACAPA) are rare but clinically significant condition with high mortality if left untreated. Even more rarely, ACAPA is associated with other congenital heart defects. From 1974 to 2024, 120 patients with anomalous coronary arteries connected to the pulmonary artery were retrospectively analyzed.

Background: The association between subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cognitive decline in hypertensive adults and the underlying brain pathologies remain unclear. It is also undetermined whether intensifying blood pressure (BP) treatment slows down cognitive decline associated with subclinical CVD.
Methods: We conducted a post hoc analysis of the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial.
Green tea consumption and cerebral white matter lesions in community-dwelling older adults without dementia.

Department of Neurology, Kanazawa University Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kanazawa, Japan.
This study investigated the association between green tea or coffee consumption with cerebral white matter lesions and hippocampal and total brain volumes among 8766 community-dwelling participants recruited from the Japan Prospective Studies Collaboration for Aging and Dementia between 2016 and 2018. A Food Frequency Questionnaire was used to assess green tea and coffee consumption, whereas brain magnetic resonance imaging was performed to assess cerebral white matter lesions, hippocampal volume, and total brain volume. Multivariable-adjusted analysis revealed significant correlations between fewer cerebral white matter lesions and higher green tea consumption, whereas no significant differences were found between green tea consumption and hippocampal or total brain volume.
