    microorganisms Review The Influence of Probiotics on the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes Ratio in the Treatment of Obesity and Inflammatory Bowel disease Spase Stojanov 1,2, Aleš Berlec 1,2 and Borut Štrukelj 1,2,* 1 Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Ljubljana, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia; [email protected] (S.S.); [email protected] (A.B.) 2 Department of Biotechnology, Jožef Stefan Institute, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia * Correspondence: borut.strukelj@ffa.uni-lj.si Received: 16 September 2020; Accepted: 31 October 2020; Published: 1 November 2020 Abstract: The two most important bacterial phyla in the gastrointestinal tract, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, have gained much attention in recent years. The Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes (F/B) ratio is widely accepted to have an important influence in maintaining normal intestinal homeostasis. Increased or decreased F/B ratio is regarded as dysbiosis, whereby the former is usually observed with obesity, and the latter with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Probiotics as live microorganisms can confer health benefits to the host when administered in adequate amounts. There is considerable evidence of their nutritional and immunosuppressive properties including reports that elucidate the association of probiotics with the F/B ratio, obesity, and IBD. Orally administered probiotics can contribute to the restoration of dysbiotic microbiota and to the prevention of obesity or IBD. However, as the effects of different probiotics on the F/B ratio differ, selecting the appropriate species or mixture is crucial. The most commonly tested probiotics for modifying the F/B ratio and treating obesity and IBD are from the genus Lactobacillus. In this paper, we review the effects of probiotics on the F/B ratio that lead to weight loss or immunosuppression.

  • The Characteristics and Risk Factors of Human Papillomavirus
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The characteristics and risk factors of human papillomavirus infection: an outpatient population‑based study in Changsha, Hunan Bingsi Gao 1, Yu‑Ligh Liou2, Yang Yu1, Lingxiao Zou1, Waixing Li1, Huan Huang1, Aiqian Zhang1, Dabao Xu 1,3* & Xingping Zhao 1,3* This cross‑sectional study investigated the characteristics of cervical HPV infection in Changsha area and explored the infuence of Candida vaginitis on this infection. From 11 August 2017 to 11 September 2018, 12,628 outpatient participants ranged from 19 to 84 years old were enrolled and analyzed. HPV DNA was amplifed and tested by HPV GenoArray Test Kit. The vaginal ecology was detected by microscopic and biochemistry examinations. The diagnosis of Candida vaginitis was based on microscopic examination (spores, and/or hypha) and biochemical testing (galactosidase) for vaginal discharge by experts. Statistical analyses were performed using SAS 9.4. Continuous and categorical variables were analyzed by t‑tests and by Chi‑square tests, respectively. HPV infection risk factors were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. Of the total number of participants, 1753 were infected with HPV (13.88%). Females aged ≥ 40 to < 50 years constituted the largest population of HPV‑infected females (31.26%). The top 5 HPV subtypes afecting this population of 1753 infected females were the following: HPV‑52 (28.01%), HPV‑58 (14.83%), CP8304 (11.47%), HPV‑53 (10.84%), and HPV‑39 (9.64%). Age (OR 1.01; 95% CI 1–1.01; P < 0.05) and alcohol consumption (OR 1.30; 95% CI 1.09–1.56; P < 0.01) were found to be risk factors for HPV infection.

  • Infektionen an Vulva, Vagina Und Zervix Literarische Übersichtsarbeit Und Internetkompendium
    Aus der Klinik und Poliklinik für Frauenheilkunde und Geburtshilfe der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Direktor: Prof. Dr. med. K. Friese Infektionen an Vulva, Vagina und Zervix Literarische Übersichtsarbeit und Internetkompendium Dissertation zum Erwerb des Doktorgrades der Medizin an der Medizinischen Fakultät der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München vorgelegt von Andrea Buchberger aus Dachau 2009 Abstract Die literarische Übersichtsarbeit und das Internetkompendium zur Thematik Infektionen an Vulva, Vagina und Zervix zeichnen sich durch große epidemiologische Bedeutung und fachliche Brisanz aus. Auf 265 Seiten werden 654 Fachartikel der vergangenen Dekade zitiert, 90 Abbildungen und Tabellen strukturieren die Flut an Daten. Die originäre Leistung liegt im Internetkompendium, das eine gute Übersicht über genitale Infektionen verschafft. Die wissenschaftlich fundierten Aussagen aus dem Grundlagenteil werden hier komprimiert auf einer Startseite zusammengefügt, in den tieferen Ebenen sind weiterführende Kommentare verlinkt. In einem diagnosebezogenen und in einem symptomorientierten Bereich sowie einen Abschnitt zur Prävention hat der Laie raschen Zugriff auf die für ihn relevanten Informationen. Genitalinfektionen sind häufig: Fast alle Frauen sind im Laufe ihres Lebens wenigstens einmal davon betroffen, viele leiden an rezidivierenden Verläufen. Auch die Inzidenz sexuell übertragbarer Krankheiten ist weltweit, in Europa und auch in Deutschland zunehmend. Doch die geschichtlichen Wurzeln reichen weit zurück: Seit alters her wurden zahlreiche Therapieoptionen ersonnen, in der Einleitung wird ein kurzer geschichtlicher Abriss gegeben. Im Anschluss daran folgt die Aufgabenstellung in der die Teile der Arbeit erläutert werden. Auch das System der Literaturrecherche wird beschrieben: Im Wesentlichen fand sie über das Internet statt, doch auch die Universitätsbibliothek in Großhadern, die medizinische Lesehalle und über Fernleihe die Bayerische Staatsbibliothek waren wichtige Literaturquellen.

Carolina School of Medicine 3 Department of Maternal and Child Health, Gillings School of Global Public Health, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 4 Department of Pediatrics, Division of Infectious Diseases, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina Semin Reprod Med 2014;32:68–73 Abstract Breast milk contains a rich microbiota composed of viable skin and non-skin bacteria. The extent of the breast milk microbiota diversity has been revealed through new culture-independent studies using microbial DNA signatures. However, the extent to which the breast milk microbiota are transferred from mother to infant and the function of these breast milk microbiota for the infant are only partially understood. Here, we appraise hypotheses regarding the formation of breast milk microbiota, including retrograde infant-to-mother transfer and enteromammary trafficking, and we review current knowledge of mechanisms determining the extent of breast milk microbiota transfer from mother to infant. We highlight known functions of constituents in the breast milk microbiota—to enhance immunity, liberate nutrients, synergize with breast Keywords milk oligosaccharides to enhance intestinal barrier function, and strengthen a functional ► enteromammary gut–brain axis. We also consider the pathophysiology of maternal mastitis with respect trafficking to a dysbiosis or abnormal shift in the breast milk microbiota.
