Objective:To investigate the efficacy of different treatment of oral lichen planus (OLP) patients with thyroid antibody positive and its correlation with thyroid antibody, providing more targeted treatment for OLP patients with thyroid antibody positive.Methods:Patients who were admitted to Department of Oral Medicine, Stomatology Hospital, School of Stomatology, Zhejiang University School of Medicine for OLP with serum thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb) from February 2020 to June 2024 were included. Demographic and clinical data were recorded, and qualitative status and quantitative titers of TPOAb/TGAb were collected. TPOAb and/or TGAb positive patients were included into the thyroid antibody positive group, while patients with both TPOAb and TGAb negative were included into the thyroid antibody negative group. According to the treatment methods, they were divided into topical treatment group, topical treatment combined with oral immunosuppressant group, and topical treatment combined with oral immunoenhancer group. After 2 weeks and 1 month of treatment, the clinical efficacy of thyroid antibody positive group and negative group in OLP patients under different treatment methods were compared, and the correlations of different clinical efficacy with age, sex and thyroid antibody titer were analyzed.Results:A total of 116 OLP patients were included in this study, of which 38 (32.8%) were thyroid antibody positive and 78 (67.2%) were thyroid antibody negative. Compared with untreated, the modified OLP score and pain degree in thyroid antibody negative group were significantly improved after 2 weeks and 1 month of topical treatment and topical treatment combined with oral immunosuppression ( P<0.01). Although the thyroid antibody positive group also showed a remission trend, there was no statistical significance before and after treatment ( P>0.05). For topical treatment combined with oral immunoenhancer, the modified OLP score and pain degree in both groups of antibody positive and negative were statistically significant different after 2 weeks and 1 month of treatment compared with before ( P<0.01), while there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the treatment efficacy of OLP in topical treatment group, topical treatment combined with oral immunosuppressant group, and topical treatment combined with oral immunoenhancer group had no significant correlation with age, sex, as well as the TPOAb and TGAb titer ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Thyroid antibody TPOAb and TGAb could be reference factors for the selection of OLP treatment plan. For patients of OLP with positive thyroid antibodies, topical therapy combined with oral immunoenhancers may be preferred.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of the real-time tissue elastography (RTE)and AST/PLT ratio in-dex (APRI)for the assessment of the early stage liver fibrosis in chronic liver disease patients.Methods Totally 90 patients with chronic liver disease were enrolled in the present study.The RTE score and the area percentage of the blue color (AREA,one of the elastic characteristics),the AST and PLT were recorded.Compared the results among different stages of liver fibrosis reported by biopsy considered as the gold standard for the assessment of liver fibrosis.The accuracy of the diagnosis of liver fibrosis by RTE scores,AREA and APRI were compared.Results RTE scores,AREA and APRI increased with the stage of liver fibrosis. Taking ≥S1 as the diagnosis standard of the early stage liver fibrosis,the area under the curve of ROC for RTE scores,AREA and APRI were 0.88,0.92,0.76 (P <0.05).Conclusion RTE is a new and promising sonography-based noninvasive method for the assessment of hepatic fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease.Combined RTE with APRI have great clinical significance in di-agnosing the early stage liver fibrosis in chronic liver disease patients.
