[oral submucous fibrosis]
The
aim
of
the
current
cross-sectional
study
was
to
assess
oral
mucosal
lesions
among
psychiatric
jail
patients
residing
in
central
jail
,
Bhopal
,
Madhya
Pradesh
,
India
.
The
study
subjects
consisted
of
prediagnosed
psychiatric
patients
residing
in
central
jail
,
Bhopal
.
A
matched
control
consisting
of
cross
section
of
the
population
,
that
is
,
jail
inmates
residing
in
the
same
central
jail
locality
was
also
examined
to
compare
the
psychiatric
subjects
.
The
WHO
oral
health
assessment
proforma
,
1997
along
with
18
-
item
questionnaire
was
used
for
the
oral
health
examination
.
A
total
number
of
subjects
examined
were
244
,
which
comprised
of
122
psychiatric
inmates
and
122
nonpsychiatric
inmates
.
Among
all
psychiatric
inmates
,
about
57
.
4
%
of
inmates
had
a
diagnosis
of
depression
,
14
.
8
%
had
psychotic
disorders
(
like
schizophrenia
)
,
and
12
.
3
%
had
anxiety
disorder
.
A
total
of
77
%
study
inmates
,
which
comprised
of
87
.
7
%
psychiatrics
and
66
.
4
%
nonpsychiatrics
had
a
habit
of
tobacco
consumption
(
smokeless
or
smoking
)
.
Overall
prevalence
of
oral
mucosal
lesions
among
the
inmates
was
85
(
34
.
8
%
)
,
which
comprised
of
39
.
3
%
psychiatric
inmates
and
30
.
3
%
nonpsychiatric
inmates
.
The
information
presented
in
this
study
adds
to
our
understanding
of
the
common
oral
mucosal
lesions
occurring
in
a
psychiatric
inmate
population
.
Leukoplakia
and
oral
submucous
fibrosis
were
the
most
common
types
of
oral
mucosal
lesions
found
.
Efforts
to
increase
patient
awareness
of
the
oral
effects
of
tobacco
use
and
to
eliminate
the
habit
are
needed
to
improve
oral
and
general
health
of
the
prison
population
.
