Filter by:This study will explore and map the potential shifts in vaginal microbiomes as a consequence of a microbial intervention with product FB101 in healthy, asymptomatic volunteer women screened to have vaginal dysbiosis based on criteria defined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis of a vaginal swab sample.
Patients affected by ASC-US/ low-grade HPV cervical lesions will be randomly assigned to treatment arm vs control arm. The treatment arm will include the characterization of the vaginal microbiota at enrollment (T0), 4 months of oral treatment with Lactobacillus Crispatus M 247 (1 buccal stick Die), characterization of the vaginal microbiota at 1 month post treatment (T5 m). The vaginal microbiota will be evaluated by Danagene microbiome vaginal DNA KIT-XMICROGem (XBIOGem) test, with amplification of the variable regions of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, using the MICROBIOTA kit (CE-IVD - ARROW diagnostics) and second generation sequencing technologies (NGS on Illumina MiSeq platform). The control arm will provide for the characterization of the vaginal microbiota at the same timescales. Patients will be given a medical history questionnaire at T0 and T5m
In this study, the investigators will prospectively collect, analyze and integrate information regarding vaginal microbiome composition and HPV presence in women with cervical pathologies (high-grade CIN and CC) and controls, to construct a large dataset from patients with pre-cancerous cervical lesions and healthy women, to evaluate the personalized contribution of the vaginal microbiome to the CIN-CC sequence.
Menopausal women have an increased risk of recurrent urinary tract infections. This is likely due in part to hormonal changes occurring during menopause. As estrogen falls, the vaginal microbiome shifts from a healthy one to a less healthy one. Because the vagina is close to the urethra, this vaginal microbiome shift contributes to a loss of protection against urinary tract infections (UTIs). The investigators are asking whether improving the vaginal microbiome using an over-the-counter vaginal hygiene system can reduce frequency of recurrent UTI in menopausal women.
The aim of this prospective, observational study is to investigate the prevalence of vaginal dysbiosis among women undergoing IVF procedures in the US. And to investigate the associations between the vaginal microbiome and the pregnancy outcome following IVF.
Vaginal flora is closely related to female reproductive health. Previous studies have suggested that the composition of the vaginal flora is related to the pregnancy outcomes, and abnormalities in the vaginal flora lead to a decrease in the success rate of IVF. During the IVF treatment, the hormone level changes far exceed the physiological level. What changes will happen to the vaginal flora? Does IVF treatment itself affect the vaginal flora and affect outcomes? This study used prospective cohort study to show the changes in vaginal flora during conventional IVF treatment, providing more evidence for revealing the relationship between vaginal flora and infertility treatment outcomes.
