Abstract
BACKGROUND: Oral mucosal lesions are widespread globally, have a high prevalence in clinical practice, and significantly impact patients' quality of life. However, their pathogenesis remains unclear. Recent evidences suggested that hematological parameters may play a role in their development. Our study investigated the differences in humoral immune indexes, serum vitamin B levels, and micronutrients among patients with oral mucosal lesions and healthy controls. Additionally, it evaluated a Random Forest machine learning model for classifying various oral mucosal diseases based on peripheral blood biomarkers.
