A comparative study of cytomorphological evaluation of exfoliated buccal mucosal cells in type I diabetic patients with non diabetics
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycaemia, associated with irregularities in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Type 1 DM results in insulin deficiency secondary to autoimmune mediated destruction of β cells (6). The incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus has increased in children and teenagers during the past 30 years. The oral complications of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus are devastating. Exfoliative cytology is a simple non-aggressive technique that is well accepted by the patient, and allows a quick and fairly accurate assessment of suspicious lesions of the oral cavity. Study design: A total of 30 Type I Diabetics (Group D) and 30 normal subjects (Group N) were selected for the study.
