L2 Microbiome & Systemic Disease Flashcards
Alpha diversity
Beta diversity
Alpha: within habitat
Beta: among habitat
Infective endocarditis
Steps
Platelets and fibrin adhere to exposed CT and produce Nonbacterial Thrombotic Endocarditis
Bacteria enter bloodstream, adhere to NBTE
Multiplicaiton, infiltrate tissues
Discharged into circulation
Microbiology of Infective Endocarditis (6)
Streptococci -sanguis -mitis -mutans AA Gemella Staphylococci (skin bacteria)
Oral bacteria and pneumonia
High evidence of causality
Oral bacteria and preterm birth
Low evidence of causality
Periodontitis and diabetes
Treating periodontitisi improves glycemic control
Direct transfer of oral bacteria in systemic infetions
Infective endocarditis
Pneumonia
Immunosuppression
Transfer of oral bacteria
Type II diabetes
Cardio disease
Pancreatic cancer
