Possible interplay of diabetes mellitus and thyroid diseases in oral lichen planus: A pooled prevalence analysis.

ABSTRACT: The existence of a comorbidity between diabetes mellitus (DM) as well as between thyroid diseases (TD) and oral lichen planus (OLP), respectively, was substantially demonstrated. However, there is not enough attention to the concurrent status of both TD and DM in OLP patients. Herein, this short communication aimed to compare 1) the prevalence of DM when TD was concurrently investigated and that of DM when TD status was ignored; 2) the prevalence of TD when DM was concurrently investigated and that of TD when DM status was ignored in the studies. The pooled prevalence (9.86 %; 95 % confidence intervals [CI], 9.22-10.53 %) of DM when TD was concurrently investigated was significantly higher than that (8.13 %; 95%CI, 8.03-9.12 %) when TD status was not investigated in OLP patients. The pooled prevalence (12.48 %; 95%CI, 11.77-13.22 %) of TD when DM was concurrently investigated was significantly higher than that (10.45 %; 95%CI, 9.52-11.46 %) when DM status was not investigated in OLP patients. Thus, it is logical to presume for the first time that there is possible interplay of DM and TD in OLP occurrence. TD and DM should serve as important confounding factors each other in clinical investigation on OLP and associated comorbidities.

Project description:ImportanceIntegrated information on the global prevalence and incidence of oral lichen planus (OLP) is lacking.ObjectiveTo examine the global prevalence and incidence of OLP in a systematic review and meta-analysis.Data sourcesA systematic review of population-based studies and clinic-based studies reporting the prevalence and incidence of OLP was performed using 3 electronic medical databases (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Embase, and MEDLINE) from their inception to March 2019. The search terms included "(lichen planus or LP) and (prevalence or incidence or epidemiology)." No language restriction was applied.Study selectionObservational descriptive studies investigating the prevalence and incidence of OLP were included.Data extraction and synthesisData were extracted by continent, sex, and other characteristics. The risk of bias was assessed by the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Instrument for Studies Reporting Prevalence Data using random-effects models to synthesize available evidence.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was the prevalence (with 95% CIs) of OLP among the overall population and among subgroups. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 statistic.ResultsAmong 46 studies, the overall pooled estimated prevalence of OLP was 0.89% (95% CI, 0.38%-2.05%) among the general population (n = 462 993) and 0.98% (95% CI, 0.67%-1.43%) among clinical patients (n = 191 963). Among the 15 population-based studies, the prevalence of OLP was 0.57% (95% CI, 0.15%-2.18%) in Asia, 1.68% (95% CI, 1.09%-2.58%) in Europe, and 1.39% (95% CI, 0.58%-3.28%) in South America. Among the 31 clinic-based studies, the prevalence was 1.43% (95% CI, 1.12%-1.83%) in Africa, 0.87% (95% CI, 0.61%-1.25%) in Asia, 1.03% (95% CI, 0.51%-2.09%) in Europe, 0.11% (95% CI, 0.07%-0.16%) in North America, and 3.18% (95% CI, 0.97%-9.95%) in South America. The pooled prevalence of OLP by sex was 1.55% (95% CI, 0.83%-2.89%) for women and 1.11% (95% CI, 0.57%-2.14%) for men in the population-based studies and 1.69% (95% CI, 1.05%-2.70%) for women and 1.09% (95% CI, 0.67%-1.77%) for men in the clinic-based studies. In 5 clinic-based studies providing the age distribution of patients with OLP, the prevalence by age was 0.62% (95% CI, 0.33%-1.13%) among patients younger than 40 years and 1.90% (95% CI, 1.16%-3.10%) among patients 40 years and older.Conclusions and relevanceThis study identified the global prevalence and incidence of OLP in terms of its spatial, temporal, and population distribution. The overall estimated pooled prevalence of OLP was 0.89% among the general population and 0.98% among clinical patients. A higher prevalence of OLP was found in non-Asian countries, among women, and among people 40 years and older. The findings should be considered with caution because of the high heterogeneity of the included studies.
