Abstract
Objective: The objective of this review is to assess whether tobacco use is a risk factor for recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS).
Introduction: RAS is a common oral condition that presents as oral ulcers. Tobacco use is generally considered a risk factor for several types of oral lesions; however, literature is divided on the effect of tobacco use on RAS.
Inclusion criteria: Primary studies reporting the association of tobacco use with RAS will be considered. There will be no restrictions on age, type of tobacco used, year of publication, or location. Only studies with clinically diagnosed cases of RAS will be included.
Methods: This systematic review will include cross-sectional, case control, cohort, and experimental studies. The review will be undertaken according to the JBI methodology for risk factor reviews. A comprehensive search will be conducted in MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus, Open Dentistry, Web of Science, Embase, and Google Scholar. The study selection process will involve evaluating citations for eligibility, assessing methodological quality using JBI risk of bias tools, and extracting data from studies using a customized data extraction tool. Quantitative data synthesis will involve summary measures including odds ratio and relative risk.
目的：本综述的目的是评估吸烟是否是复发性口腔炎（RAS）的危险因素。简介：RAS是一种常见的口腔疾病，表现为口腔溃疡。烟草使用通常被认为是几种口腔病变的危险因素；然而，文献对烟草使用对RAS的影响存在分歧。纳入标准：将考虑报告烟草使用与RAS相关的初步研究。对年龄、使用的烟草类型、出版年份或地点没有限制。只有临床诊断的RAS病例才会被纳入研究。方法：本系统综述将包括横断面研究、病例对照研究、队列研究和实验研究。审查将根据JBI的风险因素审查方法进行。将在MEDLINE， CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus, Open Dentistry, Web of Science， Embase和谷歌Scholar中进行全面搜索。研究选择过程将包括评估引文的合格性，使用JBI偏倚风险工具评估方法学质量，以及使用定制的数据提取工具从研究中提取数据。定量数据综合将涉及包括优势比和相对风险在内的总结措施。审核注册：PROSPERO CRD42024544566。
