This systematic review mainly focuses on the effects of curcumin on oral cancer cells at the molecular level and summarizes the results of the studies. We searched and analyzed various databases such as Pub Med, ProQuest, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Scopus. Searches were conducted from 2006 to 2021. This systematic review evaluated various effects of curcumin on oral cancer at the molecular level. All the studies related to the effects of curcumin on oral cancer, both in-vivo and in-vitro, were included. After abstract and text screening a total of 13 articles were finally selected for the study based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All most all the included studies reported that after treating the cell lines with curcumin there is a reduction in cell proliferation and cell growth, analyzed using MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay. Curcumin also induces S phase cell cycle arrest and also prevents Tregs migration. The curcumin reverses the process of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) back to mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET). From this review, it is concluded that curcumin inhibited proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis, and induced apoptosis via modulating multiple signaling pathways in oral cancer cell lines. But further clinical trials are needed for a detailed evaluation of the effects of curcumin on patients with oral cancer.

Accurate diagnosis of oral lesions, early indicators of oral cancer, is a complex clinical challenge. Recent advances in deep learning have demonstrated potential in supporting clinical decisions. This paper introduces a deep learning model for classifying oral lesions, focusing on accuracy, interpretability, and reducing dataset bias.

Background: Infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) is a rare pediatric tumor of intermediate malignancy with high local aggressiveness that typically presents in young infants. Its occurrence in the head and neck region is rare. Complete non-mutilating surgical resection is often not possible, requiring multimodal treatment.

Background: There is a lack of prognosticators of overall survival (OS) for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC).

Objectives: We examined collaborative machine learning (cML) in estimating the OS of OSCC patients. The prognostic significance of the clinicopathological parameters was examined.

Objectives: This study aimed to explore differences in demographics, tumour characteristics and outcomes in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients with a history of non-smoking, non-drinking (NSND) versus smoking and/or drinking (SD).

Materials And Methods: Newly diagnosed OSCC patients undergoing curative surgical treatment were prospectively included in OncoLifeS, a data biobank. Cox regression analysis was performed yielding hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs).
