Nevertheless, the association between <jats:italic>T. gondii</jats:italic> infection and oral cancer remains relatively unexplored.

Among them, 144 (16.72%) oral cancer patients and 71 (8.25%) control subjects were positive for IgG antibodies to <jats:italic>T. gondii</jats:italic>, while 54 (6.27%) oral cancer patients and 9 (1.05%) controls were positive for IgM antibodies to <jats:italic>T. gondii</jats:italic>. In addition, multiple logistic analysis showed that <jats:italic>T. gondii</jats:italic> infection in oral cancer patients was associated with blood transfusion history, keeping cats at home, and oyster consumption.
