Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Quantitative Pharmacodynamic Analysis of Trimethoprim‐Sulfonamide Combination Activity Against Staphylococcus pseudintermedius

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trimethoprim (TMP)‐sulfonamide combinations are widely used in veterinary medicine, yet the quantitative nature of their pharmacodynamic interaction remains incompletely characterised. This study investigated the interaction between TMP and sulfamethoxazole (SMX), sulfadiazine (SDZ) and sulfadimethoxine (SDMX) against two Staphylococcus ...

A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Clinical Significance of Organ Preservation Fluid Cultures in Pediatric Abdominal Solid Organ Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this pediatric abdominal solid organ transplant cohort, preservation fluid‐related infections were rare but occurred in infant liver transplant recipients whose preservation fluid cultures grew pathogenic organisms. These findings suggest that routine bacterial preservation fluid cultures may be most useful for identifying clinically significant ...
