Underscoring long-term host-microbiome interactions in a physiologically relevant gingival tissue model.

The human body houses many distinct and interconnecting microbial populations with long-lasting systemic effects, where the oral cavity serves as a pathogens' reservoir. The correlation of different disease states strongly supports the need to understand the interplay between the oral tissue niche and microbiome. Despite efforts, the recapitulation of gingival architecture and physiological characteristics of the periodontal niche has yet to be accomplished by traditional cultural strategies.

Chlamydia in farms located in the Argentine-Brazilian-Paraguay tri-border.

Chlamydias are zoonotic pathogens, broadly present in several bird species and responsible for economic losses in animal production. Our study focused on assessing the prevalence of Chlamydial species posing zoonotic risks in farm animals within the highly biodiverse Argentine, Brazil, and Paraguay tri-border area, characterized by significant human interaction. We surveyed nine farms in an area and nasally swabbed a total of 62 animals, that included cattle, horses and pigs.

Subjective cognitive decline predicts longitudinal neuropsychological test performance in an unsupervised online setting in the Brain Health Registry.

Backgrounds: Digital, online assessments are efficient means to detect early cognitive decline, but few studies have investigated the relationship between remotely collected subjective cognitive change and cognitive decline. We hypothesized that the Everyday Cognition Scale (ECog), a subjective change measure, predicts longitudinal change in cognition in the Brain Health Registry (BHR), an online registry for neuroscience research.

Methods: This study included BHR participants aged 55 + who completed both the baseline ECog and repeated administrations of the CANTAB Paired Associates Learning (PAL) visual learning and memory test.

Clinical and In Vitro Safety of AO 1167B: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

(1) Background: , a lactic acid-producing bacterium, displays characteristics of both and genera. Clinical evidence suggests its potential health benefits. This study evaluated the safety of AO1167B as a candidate probiotic supplement.
