“…The present study showed a higher prevalence of OSMF in males (16.5:1), which is similar to the studies reporting a varying but higher male prevalence with male: female ratio ranging from 2.4:1 to 40:1 [5,[9][10][11][12][13][14]. Biradar et al in their study reported all were male patients [15].…”

Aims: Assessment of risk factors and the role of habit variables such as duration and frequency in the severity of OSMF and to ascertain the association of gender predilection for different habits and severity of OSMF. Study Design: Descriptive retrospective study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology, Rural Dental College, Pravara Institute of Medical Sciences (Deemed University), Loni Bk. between January 2012 and December 2019. Methodology: This descriptive retrospective study of 1790 OSMF patients was carried out at the tertiary level dental hospital in the rural population of Western Maharashtra. The clinicodemographic data including details of habits was collected for a period of 8 years. Results: The average age of the patient in the study was 32.8 years, with 16.5:1 M:F ratio. Significantly higher proportions of females (69.6%) were illiterate and belonged to low socioeconomic status.There was a statistically significant increase for areca nut chewing (OR=0.135(0.054-0.342), P < 0.0001), gutkha chewing (OR=22.32(10.421-47.817), P < 0.0001), tobacco chewing (OR= 0.111(0.04-0.308), p<0.0001), smoking habits (OR=30.791(7.472-126.89), P < 0.0001) and alcohol (OR=12.692(3.077-52.347, p < 0.0001) in males when compared with females.The maximum patients were seen in stage II (37%) and stage III (34%), followed by stage I (18.73%) and stage IV (10.3%) and the severity of OSMF was more in subjects who had the habits for longer duration. Conclusion: There was a definite gender predilection for various habits and their variables (frequency, duration), educational and socioeconomic status, clinical features and disease severity. Significant correlation was also found between habit variables (duration, frequency) and severity of the disease.

“…In various epidemiological studies on OSMF, the investigators found a strong association between gutkha, areca nut chewing and OSMF and pointed that these habits led to OSMF. [2,5,10,12,14,16,27]. In the present study, 13 patients (0.7%) reported no history of any habits.…”

“…The high percentage of males in the diseased group (OSMF) as compared to the females. A study by Rahul on the Indian Population also showed the prevalence of OSMF to be higher in males as compared to females [15]. High consumption of tobacco and alcohol, nonchalant attitude towards getting a suspicious lesion diagnosed by a clinician, unconcerned about aesthetically unpleasant lesions, and greater tendency to pursue field jobs might be a few reasons why OSMF was shown to be higher in males as compared to females in our study [16].…”

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the salivary miRNA31 expression in controls and cases and associate miRNA31 levels with clinical parameters of oral submucous fibrosis. Methods: This case control study was conducted in a hospital setup. A total of 50 individuals participated in the study with 25 subjects in group I (healthy individuals) and 25 subjects in group II 25 diagnosed cases of (oral submucous fibrosis). The sample size was calculated with open Epi version 3.01. A detailed assessment of clinical parameters of oral submucous fibrosis was made. Unstimulated saliva samples were collected from all study subjects meeting the inclusion criteria and analysis of saliva samples was done by qRTPCR. Results: The results showed high expression levels of miRNA31 in oral submucous fibrosis as compared to the control group. The study demonstrated significantly higher median fold change of miRNA-31 expression level in OSMF patients as compared to the participants in the control group. Correlation between age of patients and miRNA31 fold change was discerned using the Spearman rank test that demonstrated a non-significant negative correlation. Conclusion: Increased expression levels of miRNA 31 among oral submucous fibrosis as compared to the control group make it a promising salivary biomarker that detects oral submucous fibrosis at an early stage of the disease.

“…Studies suggested that areca nut or pan-masala chewing could be responsible for development of the precancerous condition like oral sub-mucous fibrosis (OSMF) due to its abrasive nature. [ 20 21 22 ] Some researchers have quoted that areca nut usage at early age acts as the “stepping stone” to smokeless tobacco consumption. [ 23 ] So, there is need to provide health education regarding areca nut or pan-masala chewing in both genders.…”
