Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Meiling Jing"
- Meiling Jing's research primarily focuses on the interactions between microbial communities and human health, notably in relation to dental caries, respiratory diseases like COPD, and the gut microbiome's influence on various diseases.
- Recent studies include a meta-analysis identifying sarcopenia risk factors in COPD patients, demonstrating the higher incidence of sarcopenia compared to non-COPD patients, emphasizing its impact on patient prognosis.
- Additional research on Streptococcus mutans elucidates its biofilm formation and virulence regulation, revealing potential pathways for intervention in dental caries through microbial management strategies, such as utilizing nicotinamide to hinder its growth and cariogenic properties.
