Interdental oral hygiene interventions elicit varying compositional microbiome changes in naturally occurring gingivitis: Secondary data analysis from a clinical trial
CONCLUSIONS: Reduction in gingival inflammation at 4 weeks within the water-jet groups is accompanied by slight but critical changes in microbiome composition. Although biodiversity does not substantially change within 4 weeks during the resolution of naturally induced gingivitis, significant relative increases in commensal early colonizers such as Streptococcus, Veillonella and Fusobacterium were accompanied by a shift towards a less anaerobic microbiota associated with return to health. These changes were contingent upon the type of interdental hygiene, with Group 1 exhibiting more significant alterations in microbiome c...

Gut microbiome: decision-makers in the microenvironment of colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract, accounting for the second most common cause of gastrointestinal tumors. As one of the intestinal barriers, gut bacteria form biofilm, participate in intestinal work, and form the living environment of intestinal cells. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of the gut bacteria in a large number of CRC patients has been established, enabling specific microbial signatures to be associated with colorectal adenomato-carcinoma. Gut bacteria are involved in both benign precursor lesions (polyps), in situ growth and metastasis of CRC. Therefore, ...

Lemierre's Syndrome Secondary to Shoulder Hematoma Complicated by COVID-19: A Case Report
Ear Nose Throat J. 2023 Dec 11:1455613231215166. doi: 10.1177/01455613231215166. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis case report illustrates a unique presentation of Lemierre's syndrome precipitated by Fusobacterium necrophorum. This case report describes a 20-year-old patient who developed Lemierre's syndrome secondary to a shoulder hematoma and neck abscess with multiple systemic complications in the absence of tonsillitis or oropharyngeal infection. Two weeks prior to presentation, the patient sustained a right shoulder injury and contracted COVID-19. Due to his Lemierre's syndrome, he developed right internal jugular ve...

Characterisation of crevicular fluid microbiota in primary Sj ögren's syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: The crevicular fluid microbiota of pSS patients and controls differed significantly, even in SSP patients depending on their serology, parotid gland enlargement, and periodontal disease status.PMID:38079342 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/k3vx8u (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)
