Fissured tongue: A sign of tongue edema?

Medical Hypotheses, 2014
Fissured tongue (FT) is a condition frequently seen in the general population. Clinically, FT is characterized by grooves that vary in depth and are noted along the dorsal and/or dorsolateral aspects of the tongue. Furthermore, FT presents many enlarged, smooth filiform papillae and subepithelial inflammatory infiltration.

HLA alleles and fissured tongue

International Journal of Immunogenetics, 2010
SummaryThe aim of this study was to investigate the linkage between HLA and fissured tongue. Sixty‐ nine individuals with fissured tongue and 125 healthy volunteers were typed for HLA‐DRB1*. The results showed increased frequency of HLA‐DRB1*08 (P < 0.001), HLA‐DRB1*14 (P < 0.01), HLA‐DRB1*11 (P < 0.05) and HLA‐DRB1*16 (P < 0.05), while HLA‐

Familial study of fissured tongue

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1988
Abstract – Clinical and genetic characteristics of histologically defined fissured tongue were examined in a familial study. Fifteen probands with fissured tongue and four probands with geographic tongue were selected from earlier studies. In addition, 12 probands. with tongue fissuring, but without changes of papillary structure, were included.

Tongue Fissure Visualization with Deep Learning

2018 Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI), 2018
Tongue diagnosis is a unique practice in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), which can be used to infer the health condition of a person. However, different TCM doctors may give different interpretations on the same tongue. If an artificial intelligence model can be developed based on a large number of doctor-interpreted tongue images, a more objective ...

A scanning electron microscopic study of fissured tongue

Journal of Oral Pathology & Medicine, 1986
In this study, scanning electron microscopy was used to describe the surface morphology of fissured tongue. Tissue samples from the anterior part of the tongue were taken from 15 patients with fissured tongue. The formalin‐fixed samples were processed routinely for scanning electron microscopy.

HLA alleles in Brazilian patients with fissured tongue

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2012
AbstractBackground  Fissured tongue (FT) is a clinical condition manifested by numerous little furrows on the tongue’s surface. Previously, the authors observed an association with HLA‐C×06 in psoriasis (PS) and benign migratory glossitis (BMG); however, HLA‐C was not surveyed in FT.Objective  This study investigated the association between HLA alleles

Fissured Tongue in Generalized Pustular Psoriasis

Archives of Dermatology, 1993
Psoriasis is a common skin disorder, but mucosal lesions are rare. 1 In pustular psoriasis, the tongue shows lesions that are clinically and histologically indistinguishable from geographic tongue. 2 A recent study of mucous membrane in generalized pustular psoriasis has revealed a high incidence of fissured tongue. Patients, Methods, and Observations.

Tongue fissure extraction and classification using hyperspectral imaging technology

Applied Optics, 2010
Tongue fissures, an important feature on the tongue surface, may be pathologically related to some diseases. Most existing tongue fissure extraction methods use tongue images captured by traditional charge coupled device cameras. However, these conventional methods cannot be used for an accurate analysis of the tongue surface due to limited information
