Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the oral microbiota differences between healthy individuals and those with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in the Middle East, highlighting the need for more research on this genetic disorder.
- - Saliva samples from 36 participants (18 with SCA and 18 healthy controls) were analyzed using next-generation sequencing to identify and quantify various bacterial species in their oral microbiomes.
- - Findings reveal that alterations in the oral microbiota may increase health complications for SCA patients, suggesting that salivary diagnostics could be useful for predicting and preventing related diseases in the future.
