“…The latter may especially be the case if homologs like VC2341 are specialized for specific fatty acids which are not found in the Pasteurellales environment. It is tempting to speculate that the VC2341 homolog evolved from an aquatic lifestyle since almost all bacteria in its cluster inhabit marine environments [ [69] , [70] , [71] , [72] , [79] , [80] , [81] , [82] , [83] , [84] , [85] , [86] , [87] , [88] , [89] , [90] ].…”

“…This bacterium is a gram-negative bacterium and is a normal inhabitant of the human respiratory tract. However it is associated with a variety of infectious diseases under certain conditions, such as infective endocarditis, pneumonia, otitis media and arthritis [46,47]. WGF is frequently observed in patients with acute cerebral infarction and is associated with fibrinogen levels [38].…”

Background Tongue coating is an important health indicator in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The tongue coating microbiome can distinguish disease patients from healthy controls. To study the relationship between different types of tongue coatings and health, we analyzed the species composition of different types of tongue coatings and the co-occurrence relationships between microorganisms in Chinese adults. From June 2019 to October 2020, 158 adults from Hangzhou and Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, were enrolled. We classified the TCM tongue coatings into four different types: thin white tongue fur (TWF), thin yellow tongue fur (TYF), white greasy tongue fur (WGF), and yellow greasy tongue fur (YGF). Tongue coating specimens were collected and used for 16S rRNA gene sequencing using the Illumina MiSeq system. Wilcoxon rank-sum and permutational multivariate analysis of variance tests were used to analyze the data. The microbial networks in the four types of tongue coatings were inferred independently using sparse inverse covariance estimation for ecological association inference. Results The microbial composition was similar among the different tongue coatings; however, the abundance of microorganisms differed. TWF had a higher abundance of Fusobacterium periodonticum and Neisseria mucosa, the highest α-diversity, and a highly connected community (average degree = 3.59, average closeness centrality = 0.33). TYF had the lowest α-diversity, but the most species in the co-occurrence network diagram (number of nodes = 88). The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was associated with tongue coating (P = 0.035), and the YGF and TYF groups had higher PLR values. In the co-occurrence network, Aggregatibacter segnis was the “driver species” of the TWF and TYF groups and correlated with C-reactive protein (P < 0.05). Streptococcus anginosus was the “driver species” in the YGF and TWF groups and was positively correlated with body mass index and weight (P < 0.05). Conclusion Different tongue coatings have similar microbial compositions but different abundances of certain bacteria. The co-occurrence of microorganisms in the different tongue coatings also varies. The significance of different tongue coatings in TCM theory is consistent with the characteristics and roles of the corresponding tongue-coating microbes. This further supports considering tongue coating as a risk factor for disease.

It is a small, pleomorphic, Gram-negative coccobacillus with fastidious growth requirements mostly found as a commensal bacterium in human upper respiratory tract and oral cavity [1]. It can also be isolated from other mucosal surfaces such as the gut, urethra and vagina [2].…”

“…In most cases, H. parainfluenzae infection is usually preceded by an invasive procedure, including those in the oral cavity [ 1 , 3 – 5 , 8 ]. In our case, the age of our patient (67 years) is very close to the average age of the cases already published in the literature (76 years) [ 9 ].…”
