The growing threat of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) pathogens to human health worldwide emphasizes the need for more effective infection control strategies. Bacterial and fungal biofilms pose a major challenge in treating AMR pathogen infections. Biofilms are formed by pathogenic microbes encased extracellular polymeric substances confer protection from antimicrobials host immune system. also promote growth antibiotic-resistant mutants latent persister cells thus complicate therapeutic approaches. ubiquitous cause serious risks due their ability colonize various surfaces, including tissues, medical devices, food-processing equipment. Detection characterization crucial prompt intervention control. To this end, traditional approaches often effective, yet they fail identify microbial species inside biofilms. Recent advances artificial intelligence (AI) have provided new avenues improve biofilm identification. Machine-learning algorithms image-processing techniques shown promise accurate efficient detection biofilm-forming microorganisms on biotic abiotic surfaces. These advancements potential transform research clinical practice allowing faster diagnosis tailored therapy. This comprehensive review focuses application AI identification industries, healthcare, food safety, agriculture. discusses existing approaches, challenges, applications research, with particular focus role improving diagnostic capacities guiding preventative actions. synthesis current knowledge future directions, as described review, will guide development efforts combating biofilm-associated

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among noncommunicable diseases. Over past decade, there has been a notable increase in prevalence CVDs young individuals. Obesity, well-known risk factor for CVDs, is also associated with various comorbidities that may contribute to cardiovascular risk. The relationship between periodontal pathogens CVD factors, including obesity, smoking, lipid metabolism disorders, inflammatory markers, remains underexplored. This study examined six (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Treponema denticola, Tannerella forsythia, Prevotella intermedia, Fusobacterium nucleatum) factors 189 subjects stratified by age body mass index (BMI). Body composition was assessed via bioimpedance analysis, blood samples were analyzed profiles, glucose, proinflammatory cytokines. Oral collected polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis identify pathogens. diabetes scores calculated using SCORE FINDRISC scales. population 33.0% P. 47.8% 63.4% A. 46.6% T. 89.2% F. nucleatum. Significant age- BMI-related differences observed pathogen prevalence, particularly denticola. Young obese individuals exhibited higher intermedia forsythia. gingivalis found be hypertension dyslipidemia, while linked obesity. denticola dyslipidemia whereas forsythia alone. highlights potential connection disease, elevated BMI, increased adipose tissue, hypertension, dyslipidemia. Further research required determine causal relationships oral microbiome dysbiosis, obesity and, systemic develop an effective strategy preventing health-related adults.

Nanotechnology offers innovative solutions for addressing the challenges posed by biofilm-forming bacteria, which are highly resistant to conventional antimicrobial therapies. This review explores integration of pharmaceutical nanotechnology with peptides (AMPs) enhance treatment biofilm-related infections. The use various nanoparticle systems-including inorganic/metallic, polymeric, lipid-based, and dendrimer nanostructures-provides promising avenues improving drug delivery, targeting, biofilm disruption. These nanocarriers facilitate penetration biofilms, down-regulate biofilm-associated genes, such as ALS1, ALS3, EFG1, HWP1, inhibit bacterial defense mechanisms through membrane disruption, reactive oxygen species generation, intracellular targeting. Furthermore, formulations NZ2114-NPs demonstrate enhanced efficacy reducing counts several orders magnitude. highlights potential combining AMPs create novel, targeted therapeutic approaches combatting infections overcoming limitations traditional treatments.
