Implantable cardioverter defibrillator related Actinomyces Odontolyticus endocarditis and bacteremia—First reported case

IDCases, 2021
Actinomyces Odontolyticus is a gram-positive bacillus, usually found in the oropharynx, gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts, as commensal flora. Infections caused by this organism are rare but may occur, more commonly in immunocompromised patients. We

Analysis of the Effects of Dietary Pattern on the Oral Microbiome of Elite Endurance Athletes [PDF]

, 2019
Although the oral microbiota is known to play a crucial role in human health, there are few studies of diet x oral microbiota interactions, and none in elite athletes who may manipulate their intakes of macronutrients to achieve different metabolic ...

Application of COMPOCHIP Microarray to Investigate the Bacterial Communities of Different Composts [PDF]

, 2009
A microarray spotted with 369 different 16S rRNA gene probes specific to microorganisms involved in the degradation process of organic waste during composting was developed. The microarray was tested with pure cultures, and of the 30,258 individual probe-

Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]

, 2019
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...

Actinomyceslymphadenitis [PDF]

Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2020
Actinomyces is a gram-positive anaerobe that colonizes the human oral cavity. Its pathogenesis involves the disruption of the mucosal membrane, leading to suppuration and subsequent abscess formation, most commonly in the cervicofacial region. The bacteria form masses consisting of aggregates of branching, filamentous bacilli.

Periodontal microbiology and microbial etiology of periodontal diseases: Historical concepts and contemporary perspectives

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

Actinomyces and Alimentary Tract Diseases: A Review of Its Biological Functions and Pathology

BioMed Research International, 2018
Actinomyces are nonmotile, filamentous, Gram-positive bacteria that cause actinomycosis in immunodeficiency patients. Although the prognosis of actinomycosis is good, the diagnosis of actinomycosis is quite difficult. Recent studies on actinomycosis have

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...
