The relationship between serum lipid levels and the risk of oral cancer.

There was a significantly lower level of mean serum cholesterol (196.26±25.3 mg/dl), HDL (50.62±4.08 mg/dl), TGs (154.31±20.6 mg/dl) and total lipids (546.18±64.6 mg/dl) found in all groups of oral cancer patients as compared to the controls (cholesterol 231.0±33.05 mg/dl, HDL 59.94±3.08 mg/dl, TGs 249.80±51.9 mg/dl, total lipids 688.78±52.14 mg/dl), and their P values suggest that the cholesterol was significant, while the HDL, TGs and total lipids were highly significant in oral cancer patient compared to controls ( P <0.05 is significant).
