概括
与健康儿童相比,患有脑 (CP) 的儿童口腔健康状况较差,包括腔和牙疾病的发病率较高. 这需要更密集的牙科治疗,并突出了对这个人群改善口腔卫生策略的需要.
科学领域:
- 儿科牙科 儿科牙科
- 神经学 神经学
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 大脑 (CP) 运动障碍显著影响口腔健康管理.
- 糟糕的口腔卫生,含糖饮食和药物增加了患有CP的儿童牙和牙周病的风险.
- 牙健康状况不佳的循环加剧了治疗需求,影响了整体健康.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较口腔健康状况,脏活动 (通过Streptococcus mutans水平),以及患有CP的儿童与健康对照者的治疗需求.
- 为了评估口腔卫生,缺陷,创伤和牙健康在两个组.
主要方法:
- 一项涉及204名儿童的比较研究,其中102名被诊断为CP (A类) 和102名健康对照 (B类).
- 口腔检查包括对缺口,创伤,DMFS/defs,牙指数和口腔卫生指数 (OHI) 的评估.
- 唾液中Streptococcus mutans度被测量以评估虫活动.
主要成果:
- 患有CP的儿童在永久牙中显示出明显更高的DMFS (腐烂,缺失,填充牙) 和较差的口腔卫生分数.
- 与对照组相比,CP组的牙状况明显恶化.
- 在CP患者中升高的Streptococcus mutans水平表明了活跃和进展的牙损伤.
结论:
- 患有脑性麻的儿童面临着重大的口腔健康挑战,包括脏病发病率增加和卫生状况差.
- 脊髓灰质炎需要更复杂的牙科干预,如不钢皇冠,切口术和拔牙.
- 针对性预防护理和改善口腔卫生策略对于患有CP的儿童来减轻牙科疾病进展至关重要.

The Oral Microbiota
The oral microbiome includes a complex ecosystem comprising over 700 microbial species, identified through genomic sequencing and culture-based analyses to date. This community includes a core microbiome, found universally among individuals, and a variable component influenced by environmental factors such as diet, lifestyle, and host genetics. Site-specific conditions, including oxygen gradients, pH levels, and nutrient availability, determine the spatial distribution of these microorganisms...
Development of the Oral Microbiota
The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...
Bacterial Meningitis
Bacterial meningitis is a severe infectious disease involving inflammation of the meninges, the protective membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. It occurs when pathogenic bacteria cross the blood–brain barrier and enter the cerebrospinal fluid. Common causative organisms include Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae type b, Listeria monocytogenes, and Escherichia coli K1. The exact route of entry varies by pathogen and host condition.Routes of Entry...
Streptococcal Pharyngitis
Streptococcal pharyngitis, commonly known as “strep throat,” is an acute infection of the oropharyngeal tissues caused by the Gram‑positive Group A Streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes). Transmission occurs primarily through respiratory droplets expelled during coughing, sneezing, or talking.Mechanisms of Host Entry and Immune EvasionUpon entering the host, S. pyogenes adheres to the mucosal epithelial cells of the pharynx via surface proteins, notably lipoteichoic acid and the antiphagocytic...
Bacterial Meningitis I: Introduction
Bacterial meningitis is a severe, life-threatening inflammation of the meninges, particularly the pia mater and arachnoid mater, affecting the subarachnoid space, ventricles, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). If untreated, it can lead to significant neurological complications or death.Causative AgentsCommon pathogens vary with age and immune status. In adults, major organisms include Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, and Haemophilus influenzae. Streptococcus agalactiae (group B...
Bacterial Meningitis II: Pathophysiology
Bacterial meningitis typically begins when pathogens such as Neisseria meningitidis and Streptococcus pneumoniae colonize the nasopharynx and invade the bloodstream. This process is facilitated by bacterial virulence factors, such as polysaccharide capsules, which resist phagocytosis and complement-mediated killing. Less commonly, bacteria reach the central nervous system via contiguous spread from infections like otitis media or sinusitis, through congenital or acquired dural defects, or...
