A prospective study of 150 consecutive patients with burning mouth syndrome and with a minimum follow up period of 18 months is reported. Factors related to dentures, to vitamin B complex deficiency, and to psychological abnormalities were found to be important, and undiagnosed diabetes mellitus, reduced salivary gland function, haematological deficiencies, candidal infection, parafunctional habits, and allergy might also play a part. Given a protocol for management which takes all these factors into account, some two thirds of patients can be cured or have their symptoms improved.
本文报告了一项针对150例连续性灼口综合征患者的前瞻性研究，其最短随访期为18个月。研究发现，与假牙、维生素B族缺乏及心理异常相关的因素很重要，未确诊的糖尿病、唾液腺功能减退、血液学缺乏、念珠菌感染、功能异常习惯及过敏也可能起一定作用。若采用考虑了所有这些因素的管理方案，约三分之二的患者可治愈或症状得到改善。
