The Relationship between the Concentration of Salivary Tyrosine and Antioxidants in Patients with Oral Lichen Planus

Table 1

Descriptive statistics for the examined group OLP patients, i.e., reticular and erosive forms, and controls dependent on gender. P: normal distribution in all measurements, repeated measurement ANOVA test, and post hoc analysis results (Fisher’s LSD test for couples associated); NP: no normality of distribution in at least one measurement, Kruskal-Wallis test, and post hoc results (Dunn’s test for associated couples).
