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.

Defined medium for Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1986
A defined medium for growth of 24 strains of Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis was devised. This medium (medium B4) contains sodium lactate as a partial carbon source, proline as both a partial carbon source and a partial nitrogen source, aspartate as a partial nitrogen source, and the growth factors arginine, glycine, and methionine.

Molecular pathogenesis of infections caused by Moraxella catarrhalis in children

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2012
Moraxella catarrhalis (M. catarrhalis) is a human-restricted commensal of the normal bacterial flora in the upper respiratory tract of children, and – during the previous two decades – has been recognised as a true human pathogen. M.

Aetiology and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Common Bacterial Infections in Hospitalised Patients: A 2019 Multisite Cross‐Sectional Survey in Jakarta, Indonesia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To describe the aetiology and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of common bacterial infections in hospitalised patients in Jakarta, Indonesia. Methods We conducted a hospital‐wide point prevalence survey in six hospitals in 2019, capturing data from routinely ordered bacterial cultures taken before the start of antibiotic treatment.

Pathomechanism of Fever‐Induced Liver Failure in NBAS Deficiency and Treatment Effect of NAC—Observations In Vitro and In Vivo

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pathogenic variants in neuroblastoma amplified sequence (NBAS) gene causes infantile liver failure type 2 (IFLS2; MIM 616483), characterised by recurrent episodes of liver failure triggered by febrile infections. The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain incompletely understood. With this work we try to shed light
