The aim of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the salivary tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-<jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>) level in oral lichen planus patients and to compare the levels of TNF-<jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>between saliva and serum of OLP and controls.<jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. Serum and whole saliva from 30 patients with active lesions of oral lichen planus (OLP) and 30 healthy persons were investigated for the presence of TNF-<jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>by enzyme immunoassay. Student\u2019s independent<jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-test and two-sample binomial proportion test were used to calculate significance of the mean values of TNF-alpha in serum and saliva and to determine the proportions of the detected and nondetected samples in both groups.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. Proportion of detection and the mean of detectability between saliva and serum of Group B show an almost equal value, which suggests that saliva can be a good alternate to serum to analyze TNF-<jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>in oral lichen planus patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2015\/283465","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,3,15]],"date-time":"2015-03-15T21:00:44Z","timestamp":1426453244000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Quantitative Analysis of Salivary TNF-<i>\u03b1<\/i>in Oral Lichen Planus Patients"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2015","author":[{"given":"T.","family":"Malarkodi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Medicine & Radiology, Faculty of Dental Sciences, Sri Ramachandra University, Porur, Chennai 600116, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Sathasivasubramanian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Medicine & Radiology, Faculty of Dental Sciences, Sri Ramachandra University, Porur, Chennai 600116, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cden.2004.08.004"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2006.11.001"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2334\/josnusd.49.89"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0714.2007.00582.x"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/bjom.2000.0335"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/154411130201300503"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0714.1996.tb01375.x"},{"issue":"4","key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"507","DOI":"10.1128\/CDLI.5.4.507-512.1998","volume":"5","year":"1998","journal-title":"Clinical and Diagnostic Laboratory Immunology"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.oraloncology.2003.08.001"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0030-4220(94)90087-6"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0714.2004.00221.x"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/moe.2003.115"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09629350410001688530"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mc.20113"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1601-0825.2005.01165.x"},{"key":"16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-1759(90)90046-x"},{"key":"17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1373\/clinchem.2008.108910"},{"issue":"2","key":"18","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"197","DOI":"10.1177\/154411130201300209","volume":"13","year":"2002","journal-title":"Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine"},{"key":"19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0714.1994.tb00250.x"},{"key":"20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/1078-0432.ccr-05-0301"},{"issue":"4","key":"21","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"861","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/71.4.861","volume":"71","year":"2000","journal-title":"The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition"},{"key":"22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/cc8245"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Dentistry"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/ijd\/2015\/283465.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/ijd\/2015\/283465.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/ijd\/2015\/283465.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,30]],"date-time":"2020-08-30T22:00:54Z","timestamp":1598824854000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/ijd\/2015\/283465\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015]]},"references-count":22,"alternative-id":["283465","283465"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2015\/283465","relation":{},"ISSN":["1687-8728","1687-8736"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1687-8728","type":"print"},{"value":"1687-8736","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015]]}}}
