Serum Lipid Profile and Lip Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The goal of this observational retrospective study is to assess whether serum lipid levels differ between patients diagnosed with lip squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and healthy individuals. The study aims to evaluate if alterations in lipid parameters, especially LDL levels, are associated with the presence of lip SCC and could serve as potential early biomarkers. The main research questions are: Do patients with lip SCC show significantly lower LDL levels compared to healthy controls? Are there significant differences in total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), HDL, and VLDL between the two groups? A retrospective analysis was conducted using existing medical records of patients with lip SCC and healthy subjects obtained from 2018-2023.
