Comprehensive analysis of clinical research profiles and study characteristics of oral potentially malignant disorders: an observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The study aims to present an observational study of clinical trials on Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders (OPMDs) and corresponding publications.

Study design and setting

We searched the OPMDs-related clinical studies registered in the ClinicalTrials.gov database before March 1, 2024. Subsequently, we investigated the publication status of primary completed studies using PubMed and Google Scholar.

Results

A total of 185 studies were identified for analysis, including 141 interventional studies and 44 observational studies.
