Q5) A study was carried out to evaluate the potential of circulating immune complexes (CIC) as marker for disease progress in oral cancer. The study included : a) [16] 60 patients (36 males and 24 females) with primary oral squamous cell carcinoma of the buccal mucosa, ranging in age from 30 to 75 years (median age 52.5 years). Histopathologically the tumors were categorized as : well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (WDSCC), moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (MDSCC) and poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (PDSCC); with 20 cases in each category. b) Patients with precancerous lesions : premalignant lesions consisting 20 oral leukoplakias (OL) (12 males and 8 females) and 20 oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) (13 males and 7 females) ranging in age from 23 to 60 years (median age 41.5 years). c) Normal subjects : 40 normal subjects (22 males and 18 females) ranging in age from 25 to 60, who were not having any major illness in the past. Circulating immune complexes were separated by PEG-mediated precipitation technique and developed turbidity was quantitated spectrophotometrically. The levels of CIC as turbidity values at 450 nm in different subjects are : [3725]-301 2 Subjects Number of samples Range Mean SD SE % positive samples Normal 40 0.010-0.046 0.02315 0.013461 0.00246 - OL 20 0.013-0.085 0.03817 0.016808 0.00376 15 OSMF 20 0.045-0.253 0.1871 0.054718 0.0173 90 WDSCC 20 0.040-0.153 0.08912 0.032887 0.00735 92 MDSCC 20 0.100-0.162 0.1129 0.016603 0.00371 100 PDSCC 20 0.150-0.435 0.3051 0.090199 0.0202 100 Analyze the data using convenient statistical tools and discuss the pros and cons of CIC as prognostic tool in oral cancer. vvvv [3725]-301 3
