The role of gastrointestinal pathology in the development and severity of oral lichen planus

Abstract

The aim is to determine the most significant predictors of the oral lichen planus in patients with gastrointestinal pathology.Materials and methods. The study was performed of 40 patients aged 41 to 86 years with oral lichen planus. Degree of mucosal damage by oral lichen planus was evaluated. The concomitant pathology of the gastrointestinal tract was established. A discriminant analysis was carried out.Results. The most significant predictors for a diagnosis of oral lichen planus in patients with gastrointestinal pathology are revealed. The sensitivity of the method was 100.0%, the specificity was 100.0%, and the errorfreeness was 100.0%.The conclusion. Discriminant analysis allows us to conduct a diagnosis of the oral lichen planus in patients with gastrointestinal pathology. This model is available in clinical practice.
