This review discusses the application of photodynamic therapy for treating oral lichen planus and indicates its potential benefits, but it reports no new clinical results.

This systematic review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may significantly improve symptoms in oral lichen planus with effects comparable to corticosteroids, although more research is needed to confirm these findings.

In this review, platelet concentrates were found to show comparable efficacy to steroids and immunosuppressive drugs in treating oral lichen planus, with some studies reporting more benefits and others noting more severe adverse reactions with platelet treatments.

This study found that patients with oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid reactions have higher levels of serum cholesterol and LDL-C than healthy individuals, suggesting a potential elevated risk for cardiovascular disease.

In this study, researchers found no significant differences in serum levels of DHEAs, DHT, and testosterone between female patients with oral lichen planus and healthy controls, suggesting no neuroendocrine etiology linked to the condition.

In this study, researchers found no significant differences in the serum levels of DHEAs, DHT, and testosterone between female patients with oral lichen planus and healthy controls, suggesting no neuroendocrine etiology is associated with this condition.

This study found a direct correlation between IL6 and insulin, glucose, and cholesterol serum levels in patients with oral lichen planus, suggesting a potential increased cardiovascular risk.

This review discusses the impact of menopause on oral health and emphasizes the adverse effects of falling oestrogen levels on oral tissues, calling for more research into treatments like hormone replacement therapy.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This study observed elevated serum homocysteine levels in patients with psoriasis and cutaneous-oral lichen planus compared to healthy controls, but found no significant difference between the two patient groups.

In this case study, a patient with refractory oral lichen planus experienced marked improvement within one month of daily treatment with baricitinib, contributing to the evidence supporting the use of JAK inhibitors for lichen planus.
