Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

The Oral‐Gut Axis: Bidirectional Interactions Between Microbiome and Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This study aims to summarize the mechanisms underlying ectopic colonization of the gut by oral pathobionts and the microbial and host factors that regulate this process. ABSTRACT Increased colonization of typically oral microorganisms is frequently observed in the gut mucosa or lumen of individuals with gastrointestinal disorders, including patients ...

Periodontal Salutogenesis: Why Are Some People Resistant to Oral Microbial Dysbiosis and Destructive Inflammation?

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Emerging evidence suggests that periodontal health is not simply the absence of disease, but the result of a dynamic interaction between biological resilience, healthy lifestyles, adaptive coping mechanisms, and supportive environments. This results in a strong sense of coherence, which is not only a psychological state but also a biological state ...

Local Versus Allopatric Parasites: Acanthocephalans From Different Watersheds Are Associated With Different Infection Strategies in Definitive Host

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Gammarus pulex infected by Pomphorhynchus laevis at the cystacanth larval stage. We investigated whether geographic origin influences infection success of the acanthocephalan Pomphorhynchus laevis across its complex life cycle. Parasites from different watersheds showed strong differences in infection success and virulence in intermediate hosts ...
