Objectives: Artificial intelligence has generated a significant impact in the health field. The aim of this study was to perform training and validation convolutional neural network (CNN)-based model automatically classify six clinical representation categories oral lesion images. Method: CNN developed with objective classifying images into elementary lesions: (1) papule/nodule; (2) macule/spot; (3) vesicle/bullous; (4) erosion; (5) ulcer (6) plaque. We selected four architectures using our...
Epigenetics refers to changes in cell characteristics that occur independently of modifications the DNA sequence. Oral carcinogenesis is influenced by epigenetic mechanisms, including histones, which are proteins support chromatin remodelling for dynamic regulation gene expression and silencing. The dysregulation histone acetylation can lead uncontrolled activity different genes, thereby triggering events associated with malignant transformation. aim this study was analyse acetyl-histone H3...
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a relatively common chronic mucocutaneous inflammatory disease and search for novel therapeutic options has been performed. We sought to compare the efficacy of laser phototherapy (LPT) topical clobetasol propionate 0.05% treatment atrophic erosive OLP. Forty-two patients with atrophic/erosive OLP were randomly allocated two groups: group (n=21): application gel (0.05%) three times day; LPT irradiation using InGaAlP diode week. Evaluations performed once week...

The objective of the study was to assess prevalence oral mucosal lesions (OML) and perform a multivariable risk assessment demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, indicators for its occurrence in an urban population South Brazil.This cross-sectional selected 1586 subjects (719M/867F, age: 14-104 years) using multistage probability sampling strategy (65.1% response rate). Prevalence, odds ratios (OR), confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated accounting survey design.Leukoplakia lichen...
The effectiveness of photobiomodulation (PBM) and manual therapy (MT), alone or combined (CT), were evaluated in pain intensity, mandibular movements, psychosocial aspects, anxiety symptoms temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients. Fifty-one TMD patients randomly assigned to three groups: the PBM group (n = 18), which received with 808 nm, 100 mW, 13.3 J/cm2, 4 J per point; MT (n=16) for 21 minutes each session on masticatory muscles joint TMJ; CT 17), applied during twelve sessions. Seven...

Difficulties in diagnosis of oral mucosal lesions are a significant cause delayed cancer diagnosis, and this difficulty may be due to gaps knowledge. This study evaluated the diagnostic skills primary healthcare professionals regarding presented them with an e-learning course.Forty-seven (32 dentists 15 nondentists) enrolled 24-h course on medicine delivered through platform. A test, based 33 clinical images lesions, was used evaluate participants. The participants were requested classify...
The purpose of the present paper was to describe range lesions histologically diagnosed in an oral pathology laboratory southern Brazil.
