Abstract

Background: Streptococcus mutans, known for causing dental caries, can also lead to endocarditis, a severe heart infection involving inflammation of the heart's inner lining and valves. This study focuses on the virulence proteins of Streptococcus mutans and their role in endocarditis pathogenesis. Objective: To investigate the mechanisms of action of Streptococcus mutans virulence proteins and their impact on the development of endocarditis. Methods: A comprehensive literature review focused on the virulence factors of Streptococcus mutans, such as Glucosyltransferases (Gtf), Adhesin P1 (Antigen I/II), Dextranase, and proteolytic enzymes. The role of these proteins in bacterial adhesion, biofilm formation, and tissue invasion was analyzed. Results: Glucosyltransferases facilitate biofilm formation by synthesizing sticky glucans from sucrose, protecting bacteria, and aiding the colonization of heart valves. Adhesin P1 enables bacterial attachment to host tissues, which is crucial for initial colonization. Dextranase modifies biofilm structure, enhancing stability and resistance. Proteolytic enzymes degrade host proteins, aiding bacterial invasion and causing tissue damage. Conclusion: Streptococcus mutans employ multiple virulence proteins to adhere to, colonize, and invade heart tissues, leading to endocarditis. Understanding these mechanisms is essential for developing preventive and therapeutic strategies against this severe infection.

Abstract

A torus palatinus is a bony prominence commonly located in the middle of the hard palate in the upper jaw. The prevalence of this phenomenon differs among various populations, which suggests that it could serve as a possible indicator for individual identification. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of torus palatinus in the Deuteromalayid and Protomalayid populations, encompassing individuals of both genders between the ages of 20 and 80 years. The research involved an observational non-metric analysis of 72 craniums obtained from the Department of Anatomy and Histology at Airlangga University. Out of the samples examined, a single skull (1.39%) from a 50-year-old male exhibited a torus palatinus.

Abstract

Foreign bodies in the esophagus are one of the common problems that ENT doctors often face. One of them is a foreign body with dentures in the esophagus. The diagnosis of a foreign body of dentures in the esophagus is established based on anamnesis, physical examination, radiological examination, and esophagoscopy. The act of esophagoscopy is performed as diagnostic and therapeutic. If not handled immediately and adequately, foreign bodies in the esophagus can cause complications such as esophageal perforation, blockage, and pressure of the foreign body into the airway and other complications. Patient readiness, availability of tools, and the presence of experienced experts are significant factors in overcoming this case. Prompt treatment using esophagoscopy is a safe and effective way to perform foreign body extraction in most cases. Thoracotomy to esophagectomy is performed in cases of foreign bodies in the esophagus that experience difficulties or failure in extracting by esophagoscopy. It was reported that two cases of foreign bodies with dentures in the esophagus were removed by thoracotomy accompanied by esophagectomy.

Abstract

Background: This study investigated the association between infectious endocarditis caused by oral pathogens and an increased risk of myocardial infarction. The primary focus is on how oral pathogens, such as Streptococcus viridans and Staphylococcus aureus, commonly found in the oral flora, can enter the bloodstream and contribute to the development of infective endocarditis. Objective: This study aims to highlight the importance of oral health as an important aspect in preventing cardiovascular disease, especially for individuals with a history of heart valve disease or other cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: This study investigates how this pathogen attaches to damaged or abnormal heart valves, causing inflammation and further damage, which can lead to embolism formation. These emboli have the potential to block blood flow to the heart, causing ischemia and triggering myocardial infarction. The study also explored the role of inflammation and the immune response to infection in increasing the risk of arterial plaque formation and thrombosis. Results: The study found that these oral pathogens can enter the bloodstream through dental procedures or poor oral health conditions and attach to damaged or abnormal heart valves. This attachment causes inflammation and damage to the valve and the formation of emboli, which can move to the heart and block the coronary arteries. The result is an increased risk of ischemia and myocardial infarction, highlighting the importance of good oral health and effective cardiovascular risk management to prevent these heart health complications. Conclusion: Streptococcus viridans can enter the bloodstream and attach to damaged heart valves, causing inflammation and embolism formation that has the potential to block blood flow to the heart, causing ischemia and increasing the risk of heart attack and related cardiovascular complications.
