Brain abscess mimicking acute stroke syndrome caused by dual Filifactor alocis and Porphyromonas gingivalis infections: A case report
Anaerobe. 2022 Feb 18:102535. doi: 10.1016/j.anaerobe.2022.102535. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis case report is about a woman who had a brain abscess in the left parietal lobe that atypically presented as acute stroke-like syndrome. Pus samples from brain abscess aspiration revealed the periodontal pathogens Porphyromonas gingivalis and Filifactor alocis. After dental health care and 8 weeks of combined antimicrobial therapy, the patient recovered completely.PMID:35189362 | DOI:10.1016/j.anaerobe.2022.102535

Integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine Improves Functional Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke: From Clinic to Mechanism Exploration With Gut Microbiota
This study analyzed clinical and gut microbial data and revealed the possibility of a broad application independent of the enterotypes, as well as the therapeutic targets of the ITCM in treating AIS patients with phlegm-heat syndrome.

A Comprehensive Review on the Role of the Gut Microbiome in Human Neurological Disorders
Clin Microbiol Rev. 2022 Jan 19;35(1):e0033820. doi: 10.1128/CMR.00338-20. Epub 2022 Jan 5.ABSTRACTThe human body is full of an extensive number of commensal microbes, consisting of bacteria, viruses, and fungi, collectively termed the human microbiome. The initial acquisition of microbiota occurs from both the external and maternal environments, and the vast majority of them colonize the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). These microbial communities play a central role in the maturation and development of the immune system, the central nervous system, and the GIT system and are also responsible for essential metabolic pathways...

Comparing hospital-resource utilization by an enhanced pneumonia surveillance programme for COVID-19 with pre-pandemic pneumonia admissions - a Singaporean hospital's experience
Conclusions. Our study successfully evaluated our hospital-resource utilization demanded by our EPS programme in relation to an appropriate comparison group. This helps to inform strategic use of hospital resources to meet the needs of both COVID-19 related services and essential 'peace-time' healthcare services concurrently.PMID:34898420 | DOI:10.1099/jmm.0.001452

Microbiology and Outcomes of Institutionalized Patients With Stroke-Associated Pneumonia: An Observational Cohort Study
Conclusion: The microbiology of SAP is similar to early phase of HAP and VAP. SAP prolongs the duration of MV and length of ICU and hospital stays, but also markedly increases 60-day mortality.

Roseburia Abundance Associates With Severity, Evolution and Outcome of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Stroke induces disorder of gut microbiota, however, whether this disorder differs according to stroke severity and its role in the evolution and outcome of stroke is currently unknown. Here we explored the composition and structure of fecal microbiome based on 68 acute ischemic stroke patients presenting with minor symptoms (admission National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) ≤ 3) and 67 patients with non-minor stroke (admission NIHSS 4-34) using high-throughput Illumina sequencing of the 16S rRNA. There was no significant difference in α-diversity indices, but the principal coordinate analysis of the microbiota...

Dysbiosis of Gut Microbiota Is an Independent Risk Factor of Stroke-Associated Pneumonia: A Chinese Pilot Study
ConclusionWe demonstrate that a microbial community with depleted Roseburia and enriched opportunistic pathogens is associated with increased risk of SAP among AIS patients. Gut microbiota screening might be useful for identifying patients at high risk for SAP and provide clues for stroke treatment.
