Description

Zohreh Dalirsani and co-authors compare saliva levels of a natural pain peptide in 2024 between patients with burning mouth syndrome and healthy people. The syndrome causes a burning feel in the mouth with no clear cause. The peptide can ease pain and lift mood.

The study included twenty-eight patients and forty healthy people in Mashhad. Peptide levels were higher in patients than in healthy subjects. Levels rose only slightly, and not significantly, after mental health treatment. No clear link was found with burn severity, anxiety, or depression scores. The authors report the group gap as the main result.
