Inflammatory Markers and Dyslipidemia in Patients with Oral Lichen Planus: A Case-Control Study.

ABSTRACT: Background: Lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory disease of multifactorial origin. Objective: The aim of study was to evaluate biomarker parameters of inflammation and dyslipidemia in oral lichen planus (OLP). Methods: Patients diagnosed clinically and histopathologically with OLP and health controls were matched by age and gender. In both groups, lipid and inflammatory parameter profiles were collected through blood tests. Univariate and multivariate regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between dyslipidemia criteria and lipid-modifying agents and OLP adjusted for sex, age, tobacco use, and alcohol consumption. Results: The study included 252 subjects. The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 92 (73.02%) in OLP patients and 75 (59.52%) in t
