Impact of WPOI‐5 on Risk of Regional Recurrence in Early Oral Cancer With pN0 Neck
In the present retrospective study, worst pattern of invasion category 5 (WPOI‐5) was found to be significantly associated with regional recurrence (RR) among patients with early oral cancer and pathologically negative necks after elective neck dissection. Isolated RR was seen only among patients not receiving postoperative radiotherapy (PORT), however,

Malignant Transformation Rate of Oral Premalignant Disorders: A Large Database Analysis
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral leukoplakia (OL), oral lichen planus (OLP), and oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) are precancerous lesions known to progress to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The transformation rates to OSCC are controversial and have been based on small, heterogeneous, single‐institution studies. We present the largest study to date looking

Intranasal pH and Olfactory Function Among Healthy Adults

OC pH, but not RM pH, was negatively correlated with odor identification scores and predicted 18% of the variance in these scores.
