益生元与肠道微生态

益生元是一种非消化的成分,通过选择性的刺激肠道中一种或少数种益生菌的增长和/或活性而对宿主有利.具有抵抗致病菌侵入的天然功能.目前广泛研究的有果糖和半乳糖,体内与体外试验均表明不被正常人酶类所消化,在大肠中容易发酵,粪便内未能检出这种糖的成分.通过大肠细菌对益生元的发酵产生的短链脂肪酸是刺激双歧杆菌和乳杆菌增长的重要因素.应用现代技术获得了人肠道微生物细菌群的组成与种类的多样性.本文综述有关益生元的研究状况,强调益生元选择性刺激的机制和对人生理功能的影响.

Analysis of socio-demographic and systemic health factors and the normative conditions of oral health care in a population of the Brazilian elderly

doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2010.00446.x
Analysis of socio‐demographic and systemic health factors and the normative conditions of oral health care in a population of the Brazilian elderly Objective: To investigate the association of socio‐demographic and systemic health factors according to the normative conditions of oral health care (dental caries, edentulism, periodontal disease and oral mucosal lesion) in elderly individuals. Material and methods: A cross‐sectional study was carried out in a group of elderly with access to community health care (n = 200). The normative conditions of oral health were then investigated according to the WHO and the SB Brazil criteria. Bivariate analyses were evaluated by the chi‐square test and Fisher’s exact test. An estimation of prevalence for the covariates was performed using Poisson’s regression models. Results: The prevalence of edentulism and oral mucosal lesions was detected in 58% and 21.5% of elderly patients, respectively. In the dentate subjects, the prevalence of dental caries and periodontal disease was 51.2% and 20.8%, respectively. Older men and individuals from lower‐income groups exhibited a higher prevalence of dental caries. Elderly women, illiterate individuals, and individuals over the age of 65 years exhibited a higher prevalence of edentulism. Elderly 60–64 years old and those who are employed had a significant association with periodontal disease. Conclusion: Socio‐demographic factors were associated with some notable oral diseases in the elderly.     

Xerostomic medications and oral health: the Veterans Dental Study (part I)

Objectives: To quantify the adverse effects of the number of xerostomic medications on dental caries, oral mucosa, andperiodontal disease. Design: Secondary analysis of across‐sectional study of the Veterans Dental Study. Setting: Four New England area VA outpatient clinics. Subjects: The sample consists of 345 male veterans participating in The Veteran's Dental Study who also had pharmacy records. Main outcome measures: Oral health data included total surfaces of coronal caries, a modification of the root caries index, mean oral mucosa scores, and Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Need (CPITN). Oral health parameters were measured and recorded in clinical dental examinations. Exposures: Intake of xerostomic medications 14‐385 days prior to the dental examination. Statistical Analyses: The relationships between exposure and outcome were analyzed via linear and logistic regression methods adjusting for possible confounding factors such as disease burden index, alcohol consumption, dental care, and smoking status. Results: Veterans who were taking at least one xerostomic medication were almost three times more likely to have mean mucosa scores in the worst 25 percentile than veterans taking no xerostomic medications, OR= 2.63 (confidence interval [CI] 1.34,5.16, p=0.03) after adjusting for age, number of teeth, disease burden index, income, smoking and alcohol use. Participants who were taking at least one xerostomic medication experienced higher but non‐significant increases in coronal (OR =1.21; CI. 0.66, 2.25) and root caries (OR =1.10 CI. 0.54, 2.24) measured by numbers of total decayed surfaces. Conclusion: There were significant deleterious effects of xerostomic medications on oral mucosa. However, xerostomic medications do not appear to increase coronal caries, or periodontal index measured by CPITN among ambulatory, community dwelling participants who were able to perform routine preventive oral care.     

牙菌斑生物膜的形成与控制

牙菌斑生物膜是附着于牙釉质表面,由复杂的微生物群落构成的一种聚集体。牙菌斑生物膜的形成与生长对口腔健康有着直接或间接的影响,许多研究证实口腔疾病如龋齿和牙周病都与细菌的积累及牙菌斑的形成有关。在牙菌斑生物膜形态建成过程中,牙齿表面最初的定殖菌对生物膜的微生物组成和结构至关重要,这些初级定殖菌决定了后续与之结合形成共生体的微生物种类和数量。不同的微生物组成可能在与生物膜形成相关的口腔病理状况中发挥不同的作用。因此,本文就牙菌斑生物膜的生长及控制进行综述,介绍其微生物的早期定殖和成熟过程、以及通过物理和化学方法对牙菌斑生物膜的控制,以期为了解牙菌斑生物膜的形成机制及相关口腔疾病的预防和治疗提供有价值的参考。     

益生菌辅助治疗牙周病的研究进展

牙周病是累及牙周支持组织的慢性感染性疾病。牙菌斑生物膜中的微生物及其代谢产物是其必不可少的始动因素,可导致口腔微生态失衡和宿主免疫反应,最终引起牙周病的发生发展。目前,牙周病的基础治疗主要是机械清除牙菌斑生物膜和牙石,但治疗效果具有局限性。益生菌通过产生抑菌物质、刺激局部免疫反应、与致病菌争夺黏膜受体和营养物质,从而改善口腔微生态平衡,促进牙周病的治疗。本文就近年来益生菌在牙周病治疗上的实验和临床研究、作用机制、安全性等进行综述,为将来益生菌辅助治疗牙周病的应用提供参考。     

Oral disease experience of older adults seeking oral health services

doi:10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2009.00311.x
Oral disease experience of older adults seeking oral health services Objective: The objective of this investigation was to describe the dental disease (dental caries and alveolar bone loss) experience in a sample of community‐dwelling older adults who regularly utilize dental services in New York City. Background: Public financing for dental care directed at older adults in the United States is minimal. Improved preventive methods, primarily the use of fluorides, have resulted in declines in tooth loss, and concomitant increase in risk for dental diseases among older adults. While the oral disease burden in institutionalized elderly and those unable to access services is well‐documented, the dental care needs of older adults who access dental services are not well documented. Materials and Methods: Radiographic and record review were used to determine prevalence of dental caries, alveolar bone loss, frequency of service utilization, and medical status in this cross‐sectional investigation of a sample of older adults (N = 200) using dental services at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine. Results: Only 9% of the sample was completely edentulous, the mean DMFT was 19.9 and mean alveolar bone loss was 3.6 mm. Missing and Decayed Teeth accounted for 57.8% and 6.5% of the total caries burden respectively. Missing Teeth and alveolar bone loss increased with increasing age, but there was no increase in Decayed Teeth. Conclusions: While access to and utilization of dental services may result in improved tooth retention, older adults who use dental services continue to have dental care needs, especially periodontal care needs.
