Association of bedtime with recurrent aphthous stomatitis: A cross-sectional study among health.care professional students
Conclusion: The study indicates that late bedtime is an independent risk factor for RAS and thus clinicians should focus on recommending a healthy lifestyle with adequate sleep to patients with RAS. This would benefit patients with RAS, especially health-care professional students, and could probably contribute to long-term remission in RAS. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Knowledge and attitude of dental students toward hepatitis B virus and its vaccination & #8211; A cross-sectional study
Conclusions: Despite the availability and accessibility of a cost-effective hepatitis B vaccine, the vaccination coverage among dental students was low. Health education needs to be improved for all health care students especially for dental students. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Study of expression of endoglin (CD105) in oral squamous cell carcinoma
Conclusion: This study shows that presence of endoglin determines the metastatic potential of the tumor and its prognosis, thus, could be considered as a potential target of therapy. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Identification of candida albicans and nonalbicans candida resistant species in tobacco users and oral squamous cell carcinoma patients: Comparison of HiCrome agar and automated VITEK 2 system
Conclusion: The results suggested that there is shift toward NAC species, with higher species diversity in OSCC patients followed by gutka, betel quid/pan masala with or without tobacco users. Conventional agar media culture methods of species identification should be used in conjunction with automated Vitek 2 method for better control of candida-associated oral cancer.

Quantification of mast cells in nonreactive and reactive lesions of gingiva: A comparative study using toluidine blue and immunohistochemical marker mast cell tryptase
Conclusion: IHC marker MCT is a specific marker compared to TB. The position of MCs changed from juxtaepithelial in GH to deeper connective tissue in PG which was in correlation with the proliferating tissue that is epithelium in GH and blood vessel in PG.

Histopathologic evaluation of oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid reaction: A comparative analysis based on basement membrane thickness and the distribution of mast cells
Conclusion: OLP and oral lichenoid reactions are two different entities showing similar clinical and microscopic presentation. The histochemical analysis of basement membrane and mast cells in these lesions might provide a more authentic method for differentiating these two lesions and might be of utmost value in deciding the treatment options.

Role of forensic odontology and anthropology in the identification of human remains
Jijin Mekkadath Jayakrishnan, Jagat Reddy, RB Vinod KumarJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2021 25(3):543-547 Forensic odontology and anthropology play an important role in the identification of humans/victims in mass disasters (accidents and earthquakes) and criminal cases (homicide, rape and suicide) even if less available human remains or samples. Forensic also helps in the identification of age, sex, stature estimation and race identification using photographs, bite marks, lip prints, palatal rugae, radiographs and dental DNA identification if antemortem records are available. Here, we review the available m...

Melanin and odontogenic cysts: An ambiguous yet imperative relation
Priyanka Nitin, HS Sreeshyla, GD Vidya, BR PremalathaJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2021 25(3):523-526 Pigmentation in the head-and-neck lesions is an uncommon feature. The presence of it is fascinating, but its relevance is unknown. Various odontogenic and nonodontogenic lesions show the presence of melanin pigment. Although the presence of melanin is normal in the epithelium and connective tissue, the role of melanin pigmentation in odontogenic cysts is unclear. Apart from maintaining the skin balance, varying other functions of melanin is being researched. However, not much study has been done regarding it...

Polymorphous adenocarcinoma: A case report along with its characteristics and diagnostic challenges
Manveen Kaur Jawanda, Ravi Narula, Sonia Gupta, Priya GuptaJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2021 25(3):517-522 Polymorphous adenocarcinoma (PAC) is an uncommon tumor that affects minor salivary glands mainly. It presents as an indolent malignancy that frequently manifests as an asymptomatic, slow-growing mass within the oral cavity, especially palate and its clinical behavior resembles that of benign neoplasm, often causing delay in the diagnosis. Here, we report a rare case of PAC of palate in a 49-year-old female patient along with a concise review of characteristics of PAC and highlight diagnostic challenges...

Tooth eruption clock: A novel learning aid
Manoj Prabhakar, B SivapathasundharamJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2021 25(3):515-516 Chronology of tooth eruption is the most preliminary and crucial topic which is covered in the undergraduate syllabus of the dental curriculum. Eruption of permanent and primary teeth follows a particular time sequence. Both maxillary and mandibular arch has similar number of teeth, beginning from central incisors to molars. The pattern of eruption differs slightly between maxillary and mandibular arch. Remembering the years or months in a numerical manner is the usual way by which a student learns the eruption chronology. ...
