Abstract
Background: One known risk factor for oral cancer is chewing smokeless tobacco, which is common in southeastern Iran. Smokeless tobacco-related oral complications can be evaluated by assessing parameters of oxidative stress. Objectives: This study evaluated salivary malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in paan users and compared them with nonusers. Patients and Methods: In this study, saliva was collected from 50 paan users and 50 nonusers referred to the Zahedan Dental School in Zahedan, Iran. Salivary MDA was assessed based on standard biochemical methods, and the data were analyzed using a t-test and analysis of variance. Results: In the paan users and the controls, the mean MDA was 2.19 ± 1.05 and 1.24 ± 0.62 (nmol/mL), respectively, and both groups showed significant differences (P < 0.001). The daily consumption and duration were significantly correlated with the MDA concentration, respectively (r = 0.722, P < 0.001), (r = 0.764, P < 0.001). Conclusions: In paan users, salivary MDA concentrations were higher. The concentration of salivary MDA increased with the consumption of paan in more significant quantities and for a more extended time.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of High Risk Behaviors and Addiction is a clinical journal which is informative to all fields related to the high risk behaviors, addiction, including smoking, alcohol consumption and substance abuse, unsafe sexual behavior, obesity and unhealthy eating habits, physical inactivity, and violence, suicidal behavior, and self-injurious behaviors. International Journal of High Risk Behaviors and Addiction is an authentic clinical journal which its content is devoted to the particular compilation of the latest worldwide and interdisciplinary approach and findings including original manuscripts, meta-analyses and reviews, health economic papers, debates, and consensus statements of the clinical relevance of Risky behaviors and addiction. In addition, consensus evidential reports not only highlight the new observations, original research and results accompanied by innovative treatments and all the other relevant topics but also include highlighting disease mechanisms or important clinical observations and letters on articles published in this journal.
