Background: infection and eradication have been reported to cause dysbiosis of the oral microbiota. Probiotics are increasingly being used to maintain the balance of the oral microbiota. We aimed to investigate the effects of infection, eradication with vonoprazan-amoxicillin dual therapy, and probiotics supplementation on the oral microbiota.
Methods: positive patients were randomly assigned to a vonoprazan-amoxicillin regimen plus probiotics (BtT group) or the placebo (PT group) for 14 days. negative population served as normal controls. Tongue coating samples were collected from 60 positive patients at three time points (before eradication, after eradication, and at confirmation of infection cure) and 20 negative subjects. 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to analyze the oral microbiota.
Results: was detected in the oral cavity in positive (34/60), negative (7/20), and eradicated (1/60) subjects using high-throughput sequencing. Compared with normal controls, positive patients exhibited higher richness ( = 0.012) and comparable diversity ( = 0.075) of oral microbiota. Beta diversity and KEGG analysis showed oral flora composition and function differences in positive and negative subjects. Alpha diversity dramatically decreased after eradication and modestly increased with confirmation of eradication. Beta diversity and LEfSe analysis revealed distinct structures, and KEGG analysis showed distinct signaling pathways of tongue coating flora at three time points. There was a significant reduction of Firmicutes and after erdication. The PT group and BtT group had identical compositional and functional differences of oral microbiota at three time points.
Conclusion: No substantial link existed between oral and stomach , while removing gastric helped eliminate oral . infection and vonoprazan-amoxicillin dual therapy affected oral microbiota diversity, structure, and function. eradication demonstrated a suppressive impact on the proliferation of oral pathogens, specifically Firmicutes and . Nevertheless, probiotics supplementation did not reduce the oral microbial disturbance caused by eradication.

The global incidence of early-onset cancer has surged by nearly 80% over the past three decades, yet the underlying causes remain poorly understood. While genetics and lifestyle are among the traditional risk factors, emerging evidence implicates the human microbiome as a potent and overlooked contributor to early tumorigenesis. Increases in the studies that are exploring the tissue-specific microbiome signatures such as the enrichment of Actinomyces and Bacteroidia in early-onset colorectal cancer, or Enterobacter and Neisseria in pancreatic tumors offer compelling evidence for age-stratified microbial contributions.

Cadmium (Cad) is a worldwide heavy metal pollutant associated with global health challenges. Alteration of the intestinal microbiome, due to chemicals' exposure, plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal diseases such as pancreatic disorders. Hence, modulation of the gut microbiota might be a targeted approach to manage pancreatic diseases.

Oral ulcers are a prevalent condition globally, causing significant pain and discomfort. The unique environment of the oral cavity, characterized by its humidity and dynamic nature, in conjunction with a diverse microbiome, presents challenges for traditional treatments for oral ulcers. Chitosan has emerged as a promising therapeutic agent for this condition.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. The oral microbiota, influenced by genetic factors, may play a role in GDM development, but the causal association remains unclear.
Methods: We employed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach using Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) data on GDM from FINN cohort data (ID: finngen_R10_GEST_DIABETES) and GWAS data on the Oral microbiota from the Danish ADDITION-PRO cohort.
