Composition of Vaginal Microbiota in Pregnant Women With Aerobic Vaginitis [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Vaginal dysbiosis, such as bacterial vaginosis (BV) and aerobic vaginitis (AV), is an important cause of premature birth in pregnant women. However, there is very little research on vaginal microbial distribution in AV compared to that in BV. This study aimed to analyze the composition of the vaginal microbiota of pregnant women with AV using microbial

Vaginal microbiota and preterm birth [PDF]

, 2023
Vaginal microbiota composition is associated with spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB), depending on ethnicity. Host-microbiota interactions are thought to play an important underlying role in this association between ethnicity, vaginal microbiota and sPTB ...

Vaginal Acidity Affects Vaginal Microbiota in Postmenopausal Women [PDF]

, 2022
BACKGROUND: The changes in vaginal acidity impact the composition of the vaginal microbiota, either commensal or pathogenic. After menopause, the vaginal tract is more susceptible to infection. Current study was conducted to analyze the effect of vaginal

Vaginal microbiota and susceptibility to HIV [PDF]

AIDS, 2018
: Bacterial vaginosis, characterized by the replacement of the Lactobacillus-dominant microbiota with anaerobic bacteria and facultative Gram-negative rods, has been associated with adverse reproductive health outcomes including HIV acquisition. With the advent of newer molecular techniques, the vaginal microbiota can be investigated in more detail and

Vaginal Microbiota and the Use of Probiotics [PDF]

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2008
The human vagina is inhabited by a range of microbes from a pool of over 50 species. Lactobacilli are the most common, particularly in healthy women. The microbiota can change composition rapidly, for reasons that are not fully clear. This can lead to infection or to a state in which organisms with pathogenic potential coexist with other commensals ...

Vaginal microbiota networks as a mechanistic predictor of aerobic vaginitis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Aerobic vaginitis (AV) is a complex vaginal dysbiosis that is thought to be caused by the micro-ecological change of the vaginal microbiota. While most studies have focused on how changes in the abundance of individual microbes are associated with the emergence of AV, we still do not have a complete mechanistic atlas of the microbe-AV link.

The vaginal microbiota in the course of bacterial vaginosis treatment [PDF]

, 2020
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is perceived as a condition of disrupted vaginal microbiota, but remains of unknown aetiology. In this study, vaginal microbiota composition was determined in twenty-one women with BV, before and after treatment with ...

Maternal vaginal fluids play a major role in the colonization of the neonatal intestinal microbiota

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundCaesarean section (CS) is associated with newborns’ health risks due to the blocking of microbiome transfer. The gut microbiota of CS-born babies was different from those born vaginally, which may be attributed to reduced exposure to maternal ...
