| porphyromonas gingivalis within placental villous mesenchyme and umbilical cord stroma is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. | intrauterine presence of porphyromonas gingivalis (pg), a common oral pathobiont, is implicated in preterm birth. our aim was to determine if the location of pg within placental and/or umbilical cord sections was associated with a specific delivery diagnosis at preterm delivery (histologic chorioamnionitis, chorioamnionitis with funisitis, preeclampsia, and preeclampsia with hellp-syndrome, small for gestational age). the prevalence and location of pg within archived placental and umbilical cord ... | 2016 | 26731111 |
| infectious and coronary artery disease. | atherosclerotic event is one of the most causes of death in the world. coronary artery disease (cad) is one manifestation of atherosclerosis. it is well-known that several risk factors, such as diabetes mellitus (dm), smoking, hypertension (htn), have effects on it. it is proposed that infection can lead to atherosclerosis or even make its process faster. here, we discuss about the effect of some of infectious agents on the atherosclerosis and cad. | 2016 | 27114736 |
| optimized use of the maldi biotyper system and the filmarray bcid panel for direct identification of microbial pathogens from positive blood cultures. | despite the current reliance on blood cultures (bcs), the diagnosis of bloodstream infections (bsis) can be sped up using new technologies performed directly on positive bc bottles. two methods (the maldi biotyper system and filmarray blood culture identification [bcid] panel) are potentially applicable. in this study, we performed a large-scale clinical evaluation (1,585 microorganisms from 1,394 bsi episodes) on the combined use of the maldi biotyper and filmarray bcid panel compared to a refe ... | 2016 | 26677254 |

| microbial dynamics during conversion from supragingival to subgingival biofilms in an in vitro model. | the development of dental caries and periodontal diseases result from distinct shifts in the microbiota of the tooth-associated biofilm. this in vitro study aimed to investigate changes in biofilm composition and structure, during the shift from a 'supragingival' aerobic profile to a 'subgingival' anaerobic profile. biofilms consisting of actinomyces oris, candida albicans, fusobacterium nucleatum, streptococcus oralis, streptococcus mutans and veillonella dispar were aerobically grown in saliva ... | 2016 | 26033167 |
| tlr4, nod1 and nod2 mediate immune recognition of putative newly identified periodontal pathogens. | periodontitis is a polymicrobial inflammatory disease that results from the interaction between the oral microbiota and the host immunity. although the innate immune response is important for disease initiation and progression, the innate immune receptors that recognize both classical and putative periodontal pathogens that elicit an immune response have not been elucidated. by using the human oral microbe identification microarray (homim), we identified multiple predominant oral bacterial speci ... | 2016 | 26177212 |

| the oral microbiome and adverse pregnancy outcomes. | significant evidence supports an association between periodontal pathogenic bacteria and preterm birth and preeclampsia. the virulence properties assigned to specific oral pathogenic bacteria, for example, fusobacterium nucleatum, porphyromonas gingivalis, filifactor alocis, campylobacter rectus, and others, render them as potential collaborators in adverse outcomes of pregnancy. several pathways have been suggested for this association: 1) hematogenous spread (bacteremia) of periodontal pathoge ... | 2017 | 28848365 |
| maldi-tof ms contribution to the diagnosis of campylobacter rectus multiple skull base and brain abscesses. | campylobacter rectus is rarely associated with invasive infection. both the isolation and the identification requirements of c. rectus are fastidious, probably contributing to an underestimation of its burden. we report the case of a 66-year-old man who developed several skull base and intracerebral abscesses after dental intervention. campylobacter rectus was isolated from the brain biopsy. within 45 minutes of reading the bacterial plate, the strain was accurately identified by maldi-tof ms. t ... | 2017 | 28736616 |
| periodontal microbioma and rheumatoid arthritis: the role of porhyromonas gingivalis. | rheumatoid arthritis is a disease, which can be described as an autoimmune response after molecular mimicry caused by infective agents. the current study aims at evaluating the correlation between rhematoid arthritis (ra) and periodontal disease (pd), with special attention to the microbioma detected in the gums. thirty-four patients with rd were recruited into the current study. among rheumatic parameters, rheumatoid factor (rf), anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ccp), hla-bdr1 and das28 wer ... | 2017 | 28691459 |
