After two tooth extractions performed without antibiotic cover endocarditis lenta occurred in a ten-year-old girl. The causative organism isolated was Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salicinicus, the first such reported case. The child has a small, haemodynamically insignificant, ventricular septal defect. A cure was achieved after long-term administration of penicillin G in high doses, at first combined with ampicillin. There were no complications.

Herpes viruses are highly contagious agents affecting all classes of vertebrates, thus causing serious health, social, and economic losses. Within the One Health concept, novel therapeutics are extensively studied for both veterinary and human control and management of the infection, but the optimal strategy has not been invented yet. Lactic acid bacteria are key components of the microbiome that are known to play a protective role against pathogens as one of the proposed mechanisms involves compounds released from their metabolic activity.

(), one of the most prevalent pathogenic bacteria worldwide, is the leading cause of gastritis, gastric intestinal metaplasia, and gastric cancer. Antibiotics, the conventional treatment for eliminating , often lead to severe bacterial resistance, gut dysbiosis, and hepatic insufficiency and fail to address the inflammatory response or gastric mucosal damage caused by infection. In this study, based on 10-week animal experiments, two models of NCUH062003 for the prophylaxis and therapy of infection in C57BL/6 mice were established; a comprehensive comparative analysis was performed to investigate the anti- effect of probiotics, the reduction in inflammation, and repair of gastric mucosal damage.

Objective: This study aimed to improve the health of peri-implant tissues through continuous intake of WB21 (LSWB21) tablets.

Methods: A double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 23 maintenance patients who had generally healthy oral peri-implant tissues. Participants were divided into a test group ( = 12) receiving LSWB21 tablets and a control group ( = 11) receiving placebos.
