“…Both female and older subjects displayed poorer QoL in the OPMDQ scores than their counterparts. This is also consistent with other studies . Females reported poorer QoL in the overall score as well as in domains “Physical and functional limitation” and “Psychological and social well‐being.” This result is not surprising.…”

“…Compared to controls, QoL of OL subjects was impaired in the overall OPMDQ score and in the domains of “Difficulty with diagnosis” and “Effects of treatment on daily life.” This is consistent with numerous studies in which individuals with oral mucosal lesions, including OL, show impaired QoL using various QoL instruments . Both female and older subjects displayed poorer QoL in the OPMDQ scores than their counterparts.…”

“…In 2018, Tadakamadla et al published QoL data specific to OL, OLP, and OSF using a recently developed discipline‐specific QoL questionnaire to evaluate QoL in individuals with OPMDs. However, as subjects with OL were used as the control group to compare OPMD QoL scores with OLP and OSF, the QoL of OL subjects remains unknown, although shown to be better than in those with OLP and OSF …”

Background Oral leukoplakia (OL) is the most common oral potentially malignant disorder, yet despite its chronic and potentially disabling nature, the literature concerning impacts of OL on quality of life (QoL) is limited. This study aimed to evaluate QoL in subjects with OL compared to controls using QoL questionnaires. Methods Fifty individuals with OL and 50 controls matched for age, gender, smoking, and alcohol use were administered the Short Generic Health Questionnaire (SF‐12) and the discipline‐specific Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder Questionnaire (OPMDQ). Responses were compared between the two groups. Results Subjects with OL reported poorer QoL scores compared to controls in two domains “Role limitations due to physical problems” and “Pain” of the SF‐12 questionnaire, and in two domains “Difficulty with diagnosis” and “Effect of treatment on daily life” and in the overall scores of the OPMDQ. Females reported poorer QoL in the overall OPMD QoL score and in the domains of “Physical and function limitation” and “Psychological and social well‐being,” while older individuals in the domains of “Physical and function limitation” and “Effect of treatment on daily life.” Non‐alcohol drinkers and subjects with dysplastic or non‐homogeneous OLs also reported poorer QoL scores. Conclusions Quality of life assessments provide useful insight into the impact of OL on an individual's life and opportunity to improve clinical care.

“…Additionally, the literature on QoL in OSF patients is scanty (Kerr et al., ). To date, previous studies on the OHRQoL of OSF patients have used generic questionnaires, such as European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (Kularatna, Whitty, Johnson, Jayasinghe, & Scuffham, ), Nepalese version of OHIP‐14 (Rimal & Shrestha,), OHIP‐14 (Jiang et al., ) and OPMDQoL (Tadakamadla, Kumar, Lalloo, Gandhi Babu, & Johnson, ). However, these generic measures offer less sensitivity to clinical change than disease‐specific tools (Kaplan, Kravitz, & Greenfield, ).…”

“…10 Past studies used generic questionnaires for the assessment of QoL in OSF patients. [11][12][13] However, these generic instruments lack the sensitivity to evaluate the QoL accurately, as they are applicable to a wide variety of populations and disease states. The necessity of the work in this area has recently been recognized by Rai. 14 With this dire need in mind, the present study was designed to focus on the outcomes and experiences of the OSF patients with a view to developing a proper PROM for OSF patients specifically.…”

Aim:The aim of this study was to explore the patients' perspectives about the impact of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) on life quality. Materials and methods:Thirty clinically diagnosed OSF patients with a wide degree of disease severity and diverse range of sociodemographic profile were included in this study. Fourteen participants were interviewed and four focus group discussions were conducted in nonclinical settings. The audio recordings were anonymized, transcribed, and translated in English from Marathi language. Data were analyzed using an in-depth narrative thematic analysis method.Results: Four main themes evolved from the interviews: (1) discomfort and functional impairment; (2) psychological wellness; (3) physical wellness, and (4) social wellness. Majority of the participants discussed about discomfort and functional impairment. Participants also reported greater impact of OSF on psychological and social wellness. Quality of Life Conclusion:This study demonstrated the impact of OSF on different aspects of participant's life. "Discomfort and functional impairment" was noticed to be the most recognized theme by our participants. However, OSF also has impacts on other important domains, namely psychological, social, and physical wellness.Clinical significance: The patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure (PROM) reflects an integral aspect of general health and well-being and thus can be used to elucidate the impact of OSF on the quality of life (QoL) of affected individuals. These patients' perspectives should be taken into consideration along with thorough clinical examination to decide and effectively manage the overall health care needs of the OSF patients.

Impact of oral potentially malignant disorders on quality of life

Abstract: OLP and OSF have a significant impact on the QoL of affected individuals: OL less so. Increasing stage of the disease is associated with worsening QoL.
