Anemia, hematinic deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and gastric parietal cell antibody positivity in oral lichen planus patients with or without microcytosis
We conclude that our 78 microcytosis/OLP patients and 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients have significantly higher frequencies of anemia, serum iron and vitamin B12 deficiencies, hyperhomocysteinemia, and serum GPCA positivity than 588 healthy control subjects. Moreover, 78 microcytosis/OLP patients also have significantly higher frequencies of blood hemoglobin and serum iron deficiencies than 510 non-microcytosis/OLP patients.
