Evaluation of the patient's history and clinical findings should help the clinician to accurately diagnose oral cancer. Our study attempts to compare and correlate cases that have the histopathologic diagnosis of oral SCCA with the data submitted by the clinician to the oral pathologist. We find the more information the clinician lists in the biopsy request form, the more likely the correct clinical diagnosis of oral SCCA is. We also show that when risk factors such as tobacco and alcohol use are mentioned by the clinician, the percentage of correct clinical diagnosis is increased.</p>","PeriodicalId":79514,"journal":{"name":"MSDA journal : journal of the Maryland State Dental Association","volume":"38 2","pages":"63-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20492029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results provide supporting evidence that discrepancies in dental utilization analysis can occur as a result of variable confounding. In addition, parameter estimates indicate that older women and white adults were more likely to visit a dental office than either older men or older blacks.
