Unravelling the Oral-Gut Axis: Interconnection Between Periodontitis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Current Challenges, and Future Perspective. J Crohns Colitis 2024; 18:1319-1341. [PMID: 38417137 PMCID: PMC11324343 DOI: 10.1093/ecco-jcc/jjae028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
As the opposite ends of the orodigestive tract, the oral cavity and the intestine share anatomical, microbial, and immunological ties that have bidirectional health implications. A growing body of evidence suggests an interconnection between oral pathologies and inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], implying a shift from the traditional concept of independent diseases to a complex, reciprocal cycle. This review outlines the evidence supporting an 'oral-gut' axis, marked by a higher prevalence of periodontitis and other oral conditions in IBD patients and vice versa. We present an in-depth examination of the interconnection between oral pathologies and IBD, highlighting the shared microbiological and immunological pathways, and proposing a 'multi-hit' hypothesis in the pathogenesis of periodontitis-mediated intestinal inflammation. Furthermore, the review underscores the critical need for a collaborative approach between dentists and gastroenterologists to provide holistic oral-systemic healthcare.

A statistical symptomatic evaluation on SAPHO syndrome from 56 cases of confirmed diagnosis and 352 cases of non-SAPHO involvement. Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:1763-1775. [PMID: 38446355 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-024-06887-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 01/01/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report a statistical evaluation of symptomatology based on 56 cases of SAPHO syndrome and 352 non-SAPHO involvement cases, to propose a symptomatic scoring system in consideration of early warning for SAPHO syndrome. METHODS A cohort comprising 56 subjects diagnosed with SAPHO syndrome was reported, as well as 352 non-SAPHO involvement cases, including their chief complaints, skin manifestations, radiological findings, and laboratory tests. We systematically reviewed previous published five representative huge cohorts from different countries to conclude several specific features of SAPHO by comparing with our case series. The score of each specific index is based on respective incidence and comparison of two cohorts was performed. RESULT In terms of complaint rates, all subjects of two cohorts suffered from osseous pain, which appeared in the anterior chest wall, spine, and limb which were calculated. In respect to dermatological lesions, SAPHO patients suffered from severe acne, and other patients (82.14%) accompanied with palmoplantar pustulosis. Having received radiological examinations, most SAPHO subjects rather than non-SAPHO involvement cases showed abnormal osteoarticular lesions under CT scanning and more detailed information under whole-body bone scintigraphy. Differences also emerged in elevation of inflammation values and rheumatic markers like HLA-B27. Based on our cases and huge cohorts documented, the early warning standard is set to be 5 scores. CONCLUSIONS SAPHO syndrome case series with 56 subjects were reported and an accumulative scoring system for the early reminder on SAPHO syndrome was proposed. The threshold of this system is set to be 5 points. Key Points • Fifty-six patients diagnosed by SAPHO syndrome with detailed symptoms and radiological findings were reported. • Comparison was made between the 56 SAPHO patients and 352 non-SAPHO involvement cases. • An accumulative scoring system for the early reminder on SAPHO syndrome was proposed and the threshold of this system is set to be five points.

Calixto OJ, Meneses-Toro MA, Vera-Parra EC, Bello-Gualtero JM, Romero-Sanchez C, Perdomo SJ. Posttranslational modifications in psoriatic arthritis: A systematic literature review. Autoimmun Rev 2023; 22:103393. [PMID: 37487969 DOI: 10.1016/j.autrev.2023.103393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory complex condition. Posttranslational modifications influence almost all aspects of normal cell biology and pathogenesis. The aim of this systematic review was to collect all published evidence regarding posttranslational modifications in PsA, and the main outcome was to evaluate an association between disease outcomes and specific posttranslational modifications in PsA. METHODS A systematic electronic search was performed in Medline, PubMed, Cochrane, Virtual Health Library, and Embase databases. A total of 587 articles were identified; 59 were evaluated after removing duplicates and scanning, of which 47 were included. A descriptive analysis was conducted, with results grouped according to the type of posttranslational modification evaluated. The protocol was registered at the PROSPERO database. RESULTS Seven posttranslational modifications were identified: citrullination, carbamylation, phosphorylation, glycosylation, acetylation, methylation, and oxidative stress. Anti-citrullinated peptide and anti-carbamylated protein have been evaluated in rheumatoid arthritis. There is now information suggesting that these antibodies may be helpful in improving the diagnosis of PsA and that they may demonstrate a correlation with worse disease progression (erosions, polyarticular involvement, and poor treatment response). Glycosylation was associated with increased inflammation and phosphorylation products related to the expression of SIRT2 and pSTAT3 or the presence of Th17 and cytokine interleukin-22, suggesting a possible therapeutic target. CONCLUSIONS Posttranslational modifications often play a key role in modulating protein function in PsA and correlate with disease outcomes. Citrullination, carbamylation, phosphorylation, glycosylation, acetylation, methylation, and oxidative stress were identified as associated with diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To describe the main clinical differences of children and adults with chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO). RECENT FINDINGS CNO is a severe systemic autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by multiple bone lesions because of inflammatory osteitis. Delay to diagnosis of CNO can lead to functional impairment, fractures, and chronic pain. Key clinical aspects and disease patterns differ in children and adults, including onset and time to diagnosis, symptom localization, associated comorbidities (i.e. skin, joints), bone lesion distribution pattern, and treatment approach. Novel biomarkers, such as urine N-terminal telopeptide in children and serum IgG4 in adults, are being studied for possible future use in improving diagnosis and guiding treatment. Despite recent advances in our understanding of CNO, many children and adults have a high disease burden and poor long-term outcomes. Recent findings suggest that adults with CNO tend to have a more chronic disease course and are less likely to achieve remission in follow-up. SUMMARY The clinical presentation of CNO differs in children and adults, highlighting the importance of these key features for the accurate diagnosis and early treatment in CNO.
