Abstract:

Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is a disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by a foul smelling vaginal discharge, loss or reduction of the normal vaginal Lactobacilli, and overgrowth of other anaerobic bacteria. Thus, it presents a formidable problem for clinicians as well as microbiologists researching its etiology, clinical course, treatment, and epidemiology. The present work focuses on the unresolved issues of the epidemiology and treatment of BV in order to provide valid methods for treatment studies of this condition and to describe the prevalence of BV in defined populations.

Abstract:

Bacterial Vaginosis is an inbalance of vaginal flora which has been associated with increased risk of numerous gynecological and obstetric morbidities including increased risk of acquisition of HIV from an infected partner and increased risk of preterm delivery. Black race has been consistently identified as a risk factor for BV. Black women also suffer from significant disparities in most of the morbidities also associated with BV when compared to women of other ethnicities and races. Traditional predictors of BV such as douching practices and sexual behaviors do not fully account for the

Abstract:

Preterm birth, birth prior to 37 weeks gestation, is the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity worldwide. While the uterine cavity and amniotic fluid largely remain sterile throughout gestation, bacterial infections can occur and are associated with preterm birth and/or preterm premature rupture of the fetal membranes (PPROM). Sneathia amnii can be detected as a component of the vaginal flora in healthy women; however, it’s also associated with bacterial vaginosis and preterm birth. Sn35, an isolate of S.amnii, was identified and sequenced through the Vaginal Human Microbiome Proje

Abstract:

<p>Risk factors such as intrauterine and vaginal infection put pregnant women at risk for delivering preterm. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a polymicrobial clinical syndrome commonly diagnosed in women of reproductive age, with women of African descent with low socioeconomic status and previous preterm delivery at high risk. Although frequently isolated from healthy women,&nbsp<br>Gardnerella vaginalis has been most frequently associated with BV. There is limited data available on the prevalence of BV in Southern Africa<br>therefore, we embarked on a study to determine the&nbsp<br>prevalence of

About 10 % of the adult women population in Sweden are treated annually for urinary tract infections. The increasing bacterial resistance towards antibiotics is classified by WHO (World Health Organization) and ECDC (European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control) as one of the greatest treats for human health in a global perspective. To find alternatives scientists are studying the possibility to use probiotics to reduce the frequency of recurring urinary tract infections.

Abstract:

Neste estudo avaliamos o papel do metabolismo do triptofano (Trp) na homeostasia, na vaginose bacteriana e nas lesões cervicais associadas ao HPV. A importância do metabolismo do Trp se deve a sua ação na proliferação de microrganismos e de células do sistema imune. O consumo de triptofano tem sido identificado como uma forma de controlar o crescimento bacteriano limitando a infecção. Por outro lado, a oxidação de Trp produz quinurenina (QUIN), que tem papel chave na tolerância imunológica. A formação de QUIN se dá através das enzimas indoleamina 2,3-dioxigenase (IDO) e triptofano 2,3- dioxige

Abstract:

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infects 30 million people worldwide. In sub-Saharan Africa, the region most affected by HIV, women comprise 60% of the infected population. Heterosexual transmission is a major mode of viral acquisition, mandating further research of the process and prevention of HIV acquisition via the female reproductive tract (FRT). The FRT is a dynamic environment, protected by host immune mechanisms and commensal microbes. The disruption of either of these elements can increase susceptibility to HIV. Accordingly, one common risk factor for HIV acquisition is the mic

Abstract:

Worldwide, more than half of all HIV-infected individuals are women. Since mucosal surfaces are the primary gateway for HIV entry, maintaining the integrity of the female reproductive tract (FRT) is essential for preventing infection. The FRT employs many immune mechanisms that serve as the first line of defense against HIV transmission. Among these are vaginal fluid secretions rich in antimicrobial peptides, and commensal bacteria that colonize the vagina and prevent infections. We sought to study vaginal fluid as an innate immune component of the FRT in the prevention of HIV infection. Addit

INTRODUÇÃO: Poucos estudos têm focado as modificações fisiológicas que ocorrem no trato genital de mulheres menopausadas infectadas pelo HIV e sua associação com a excreção genital do vírus. Nesse estudo de corte transversal, comparou-se a excreção genital do HIV em mulheres menopausadas e em idade fértil em acompanhamento em um centro especializado em São Paulo, Brasil. Investigou-se também a associação entre a excreção genital de RNA de HIV e a viremia em ambos os grupos. Fatores associados com a intensidade da excreção genital de HIV também foram pesquisados, incluindo achados ginecológicos
