The Human Vaginal Bacterial Biota and Bacterial Vaginosis
The bacterial biota of the human vagina can have a profound impact on the health of women and their neonates. Changes in the vaginal microbiota have been associated with several adverse health outcomes including premature birth, pelvic inflammatory disease, and acquisition of HIV infection. Cultivation-independent molecular methods have provided new insights regarding bacterial diversity in thi...
متن کاملDiversity of human vaginal bacterial communities and associations with clinically defined bacterial vaginosis.
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common syndrome associated with numerous adverse health outcomes in women. Despite its medical importance, the etiology and microbial ecology of BV remain poorly understood. We used broad-range PCR to census the community structure of the healthy and BV-affected vaginal microbial ecosystems and synthesized current publicly available bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence...
متن کاملA comparison of the efficacy of metronidazole vaginal gel and Myrtus (Myrtus communis) extract combination and metronidazole vaginal gel alone in the treatment of recurrent bacterial vaginosis
Objective: Due to the high incidence of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and its resistance to chemical medications and considering the anti-bacterial and anti-fungal effects of Myrtus communis, the present study aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of the vaginal gel of M. communis 2% (in metronidazole base) with metronidazole vaginal gel 0.75% alone on BV.Materials and Methods: This research was ...

“What is bacterial vaginosis, anyway? Why can’t we treat it very well? What does a biofilm have to do with it? I thought those were involved in prosthetic device infections! Isn’t there an animal model for this condition that can help us answer these questions, whose importance I personally doubt, as there is for any respectable disease?” In this issue of the Journal, Hymes and colleagues prese...
