Background: The occurrence of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is often accompanied by an increase in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels. In this meta-analysis, we compared the salivary and serum levels of LDH levels between OSF patients and controls.
Material and Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library from the establishment of the database to June 2023, and the quality of the studies was checked by the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment scale. The mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using RevMan 5.4 software.
Results: A total of 28 studies were retrieved from the database, and we included 5 studies in this meta-analysis. The salivary LDH level of OSF patients was higher than healthy controls (MD: 423.10 pg/L 95%CI: 276.42-569.77 pg/mL, P < .00001), the serum LDH level of OSF patients was also higher than that of healthy controls (MD: 226.20 pg/mL, 95%CI: 147.71-304.69 pg/mL, P < .00001).
Conclusions: This meta-analysis showed that salivary and serum LDH levels were higher in OSF patients than in healthy controls, suggesting that LDH may be a potential biomarker for OSF.
