Brief summary
Lichen planus, a chronic autoimmune mucocutaneous disorder, affects 0.5% to 2.2% of diverse populations. The treatment for oral lichen planus (OLP) includes a range of options, both topical and systemic therapies. Recent research has highlighted the potential of hyaluronic acid as a drug alternative, potentially offering effective management for OLP and alleviating the discomfort of this chronic condition. The objective was to assess the impact of topical hyaluronic acid on salivary oxidative stress markers in individuals suffering from oral lichen planus
Detailed description
Interventional (Clinical Trial) Actual Enrollment : 60 participants Allocation: Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double (Care Provider, Outcomes Assessor) Masking Description: The clinical outcomes were assessed by an investigator masked about the treatment modality that has been used Primary Purpose: Treatment Pain , quality of life the study on oral lichen planus, three treatment groups were established: Group I: Received a combination of 0.1% hyaluronic acid and 0.2% triamcinolone acetonide. Group II: Was treated solely with 0.2% triamcinolone acetonide. Group III: Received only 0.1% hyaluronic acid. These groups were designed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of different treatments in patients with oral lichen planus.

Study design
Masking description
Randomization: The enrolled subjects were randomly assigned to one of two treatment protocols using a computer-generated table. This method ensures impartial allocation and avoids biases in treatment selection for each patient. Masking: Medications were prepared and packaged in identical, sealed, and numbered envelopes by the hospital pharmacy and a clinician not involved in the subsequent phases of the study. Each sealed envelope contained the protocol assignment for individual patients and written instructions for the application of the medications. Moreover, clinicians involved in treatment evaluation at each follow-up session were blinded to the treatment assigned to each patient.
