What is Candida Species Colonization in Oral Lichen Planus - A Meta-Analysis. about?

This meta-analysis investigates the prevalence of Candida species colonization in patients with oral lichen planus (OLP), revealing a 37% infection rate among OLP lesions. The study indicates that OLP patients are significantly more likely to be infected by Candida compared to healthy individuals, particularly in erosive forms of the disease. The findings suggest that Candida superinfection may exacerbate OLP symptoms and increase the risk of malignant transformation.
