Reports from India showing comparatively lower prevalence rates of oral leukoplakia and lower malignant transformation rates than in western countries appear paradoxical because of high incidence rates of oral cancer in India. On a closer examination of available data however, it becomes clear that there is no inconsistency.
来自印度的报告显示,与西方国家相比,口腔白斑的患病率和恶性转化率相对较低。鉴于印度口腔癌的高发病率,这一现象似乎自相矛盾。然而,仔细研究现有数据后就会发现,这并不矛盾。
