Orale soppinfeksjoner - mer enn Candida albicans: mikrobiologiske analyser av prøver fra alvorlig syke pasienter med kreft .
Vis sammendrag
Bakgrunn
Pasienter med alvorlig kreftsykdom er utsatte for orale soppinfeksjoner, grunnet sykdommen, kreftbehandling og/eller svekket immunforsvar. Orale soppinfeksjon påvirker pasienters matlyst, ernæringstilstand og livskvalitet. Candida albicans er en vanlig soppart i munnhulen, men forekomst av non-albicans Candida-arter, og i kombinasjon med C. albicans, er økende. Artene har varierende toleranse for antimykotiske midler, det kan gi behandlingsutfordringer.
Hensikten med studien var å identifisere og resistensteste Candida sopparter i munnhulen til alvorlig syke pasienter med kreft.
Metode
Sopprøver tatt under studien Oral Health in Advanced Cancer i perioden 2014 – 2016, ble analysert høsten 2020. Pasientprøvene ble re-dyrket ved Institutt for oral biologi, Universitetet i Oslo. Soppartene ble identifisert biokjemisk og ved DNA sekvensering, og resistenstestet for antimykotiske legemidler: fluconazole, amphotericin B, anidulafungin og nystatin.
Resultat
Vi analyserte totalt 56 isolater fra 45 pasienter og identifiserte syv Candida arter og en Saccharomyces. Til sammen hadde 36 pasienter oppvekst av én soppart, og 9 pasienter hadde 2 til 3 ulike sopparter i munnhulen. Av C. albicans artene var 39 av 40 følsomme for fluconazole. To Candida parapsilosis og en Candida tropicalis var resistent mot anidulafungin. En C. tropicalis var resistent mot anidulafungin. En Candida glabrata var resistent mot fluconazole.
Konklusjon
Studien viste at forskjellige Candida arter forekommer både i monoinfeksjoner og blandingsinfeksjoner. C. albicans var dominerende med høy følsomhet for antimykotiske midler. Blandingsinfeksjoner kan komplisere behandlingen og forårsake gjentagende infeksjoner. Mikrobiologiske prøver og analyser med identifisering og resistenstesting, bør være en del av utredningen hos pasienter med alvorlig og tilbakevendende orale soppinfeksjoner.

Oral candidiasis in advanced cancer – identification and susceptibility testing of detected Candida species.
Vis sammendrag
Introduction: Candida albicans is the most common fungal species in the oral cavity. Increased prevalence of non-C. albicans are detected, and co-infection with C. albicans may have implications for treatment, due to antifungal resistance. The aim of the study was to assess the diversity and susceptibility of oral yeasts in patients with advanced cancer.
Methods: Clinical fungal isolates were sampled in 2014-2016 from 45 patients in a hospice unit. Totally 56 isolates were grown on chromID Candida plates, prepared for biochemical identification, and controlled with DNA sequencing. E-test was performed with the antifungal agents fluconazole, amphotericin B, anidulafungin and nystatin were tested.
Results: A total of 56 isolates were identified. Candida species was dominated by C. albicans at 71%, followed by C. glabrata 9%, C. parapsilosis 5%, C. tropicalis 4%, C. krusei 2%, C. guilliermondii 2% and C. dubliniesis 2%. Nine patients had 2-3 different species. C. albicans strains were susceptible to fluconazole in 97.5%. One C. parapsilosis and one C. tropicalis strain were resistant to anidulafungin. One C. glabrata was resistant to fluconazole and another was just below the threshold for resistance. The sequencing confirmed the biochemical identification.
Conclusion: C. albicans was the most prevalent species. Variation in susceptibility was observed in patients with mixed colonies. Combinations of Candida species and the lack of identification and susceptibility testing may lead to inadequate treatment.

Identification and susceptibility testing of oral candidiasis in advanced cancer patients – an important diagnostic tool.
Vis sammendrag
Background: Candida albicans is the most common fungal species detected in the oral cavity. Studies of oral fungal samples have shown an increased prevalence of non-C. albicans species in mixed infection with C. albicans. Non-C. albicans and C. albicans are associated with varying degrees of resistance to azole. This may have implications for treatment, due to acquired antifungal resistance.
Aims: To assess the diversity and susceptibility of detected Candida species in the oral cavity in patients with advanced cancer.
Methods: Clinical fungal isolates sampled in 2014-2016 from 45 patients in a hospice unit were analyzed. A total of 56 isolates were grown on chromID Candida plates. After phenotypic identification by colour of the colonies, one single colony of each species was re-cultivated and prepared for identification on a VITEK2® system. Susceptibility testing with E-test was performed on RPMI agar, and the antifungal agents fluconazole, amphotericin B, anidulafungin and nystatin were tested.
Results: A total of 56 Candida isolates were identified. The diversity of Candida species was dominated by C. albicans at 89%, followed by C. glabrata 11%, C. parapsilosis 7%, C. tropicalis 4%, C. krusei 2%, C. guilliermondii 2% and C. dubliniesis 2%. Thirty-six patients had monoculture, and nine patients had 2-3 different species detected. Almost all C. albicans strains (97.5%) were susceptible to fluconazole. One C. parapsilosis and one C. tropicalis strain were resistant to anidulafungin. One C. glabrata was resistant to fluconazole and another was just below the threshold for resistance.
Conclusion: C. albicans was the most prevalent Candida species in our sample. Variation in susceptibility was observed in patients with both C. albicans and C. glabrata. Combinations of Candida species and the lack of identification and susceptibility testing may lead to inadequate treatment and accelerate the development of resistance.

Oral Investigations in Head and Neck Cancer Patients after Radiotherapy.
Vis sammendrag
Objectives: To investigate oral complaints and findings in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients who had received radiotherapy and compare them with controls.
Methods: As part of a larger study, 30 HNC patients (14 female, age 64.2±9.6y) and 26 age- and sex-matched controls (13 female, 62.9±12.9y, p=0.850) were examined at the Dry Mouth Clinic, Faculty of Dentistry, Oslo. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) was assessed using the short form Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14: high score-low OHRQoL). Self-reported dysgeusia (yes/no) and sense of taste (10-point VAS: high score-good smell sense) were recorded. Taste scores were recorded using taste strips (high score-good taste function). Oral candida counts were determined from cheek and tongue swabs (0=no growth, 1=minimal, 2=moderate, 3=severe). Volatile sulphur compounds (VSC) in mouth air samples were determined by gas chromatography and related to perceptive threshold-levels (H2S≤112ppb, CH3SH≤26ppb). Between-group comparisons were performed using Mann-Whitney U test and Chi-square test.
Results: The HNC patients reported significantly poorer OHRQoL than controls (OHIP sum-score: 18.4±12.4 vs 1.2±2.0, p<0.001). They reported significantly poorer sense of taste compared to controls (6.4±2.4 vs 7.8±1.9, p=0.018), and more often dysgeusia (26.7% vs 7.7%, p=0.087). The measured gustatory scores (20.4±6.4 vs 22.3±4.6, p=0.315) were similar for both groups. Candida scores were significantly higher in the patient group (1.6±1.3 vs 0.7±0.9, p=0.024). The percentage of HNC patients who had oral H2S above the threshold level was significantly lower than for the controls (0% vs 27%, p<0.05). This was not the case for CH3SH (5.5% vs 27%, p=0.105).
Conclusion: After radiotherapy, these HNC patients experienced negative oral consequences of the treatment. They reported poorer OHRQoL, and had reduced taste sensation and higher oral candida counts. However, the underlying reason for less problems with halitosis in HNC patients than in controls is worth further exploration.

Can saliva secretion affect oral malodour and oral health-related quality of life?
Vis sammendrag
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between saliva secretion, halitosis and oral health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Informed consent was obtained from 65 participants including 24 patients with primary Sjögren’s Syndrome (pSS, 53±12y), 17 patients with dry eyes and dry mouth not fulfilling the classification for pSS (non-SS-sicca, 53±11y), and 24 healthy controls (49±11y). Unstimulated (UWS) and stimulated (SWS) whole saliva secretion rates were recorded as low (hyposalivation: SWS <0.7 ml/min, UWS <0.1 ml/min) or normal (SWS >0.7 ml/min, UWS >0.1 ml/min). Volatile sulfur compounds (VSC: hydrogen sulphide-H2S, methylmercaptan-CH3SH) in mouth air were measured by gas chromatography. HRQoL was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). Mann-Whitney test was used in data analysis (p<0.05). In general, for UWS, subjects with hyposalivation had significantly higher mean CH3SH-levels than those with normal salivation (27.339.3 vs 9.913.6 ppb). For SWS, subjects with hyposalivation had significantly higher mean H2S-levels (184.5464.8 vs 43.964.1 ppb) and CH3SH-levels (27.237.4 vs 6.58.9 ppb). Within the non-SS patient group, those with hyposalivation had significantly higher H2S-levels than those with normal salivation. In general, there were no significant differences in OHIP-scores based on VSC levels. However, within the non-SS group, those with high H2S-levels (>112 ppb) reported significantly more often that they had “difficulties relaxing due to oral problems”, and that “life has been less satisfactory due to oral problems”, than those with low H2S-levels (<112 ppb). In conclusion, hyposalivation was generally associated with increased levels of oral VSC, indicating oral malodour. Surprisingly, patients with dry eyes and dry mouth who did not fulfill the classification for pSS seemed to be more affected in their daily life than patients who fulfilled the criteria.

Dental health status of patients diagnosed with primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
Vis sammendrag
This clinical study aims to assess some oral health parameters in patients diagnosed with primary Sjögren’s Syndrome (pSS), and is part of a larger project studying groups of patients suffering from dry mouth. Material and methods: Twenty female pSS patients (mean age 54±12.7y) and 32 healthy controls (mean age 50±12.4y), were recruited to the study and examined at a newly established Dry Mouth Clinic at the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Oslo, after giving written consent. A questionnaire was filled out and clinical and radiological examinations were performed. Differences between the patient and control groups were calculated using t-test or Chi-squared tests. Results: Approximately 1/3 of patients considered their general and oral health as ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’. No controls considered their general health as ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’, and only 1 control considered their oral health as ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’. Ninety percent of patients and 75% of controls had visited the dentist within the last year. There was no between-group difference in the mean number of teeth present (patients 25.5±2.7; controls 26.1±3.8). The patients had higher mean caries experience: DMFT (patients: 18.0±6.45; controls 12.9±7.26, p=0.014), FT (patients: 15.35±5.77; controls 11.28±6.10, p=0.02), and D3-5T (patients: 0.60±0.94; controls: 0.28±0.58, p=0.136). Visible plaque was observed in 30% of patients and 9.4% of controls (p=0.056). Signs of gingivitis were observed in 25% of patients and 6% of controls (p=0.054). Conclusion: Compared to controls, pSS patients reported poorer general and oral health. They had significantly higher dental caries experience, and a tendency to more plaque and gingivitis. However, the pSS patients reported visiting their dentist more regularly than the controls, suggesting an awareness of the oral consequences of reduced salivary function.

An in vitro study on the effect of titanium fluoride pre-treatment of enamel against acid attack.
Vis sammendrag
Today�s lifestyle in many ways promotes the acidic destruction of tooth substance: dental erosions. Simple measures are needed to prevent serious treatment problems after long exposure to acids. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of fluoride treatment (simulating professional F-application) on enamel exposed to an acidic challenge aimed at simulating gastric reflux. 16 bovine anterior teeth were sectioned to obtain 4 pieces large enough to locate a circular enamel window (4mm diameter). Nail varnish was used to block out the surrounding tooth substance. Specimens were dealt into 4 groups: group 1- control (no treatment), group 2- pellicle (2-h); group 3- titanium fluoride (TiF4) pre-treatment (2min, 0.5M F-) and group 4- pellicle + TiF4 pre-treatment. Pellicle was created by 2-h incubation of tooth specimens in freshly collected, clarified paraffin wax-stimulated human whole saliva pooled from 5 healthy subjects. Specimens in groups 3 and 4 were then subjected to 3-ml TiF4-solution for 2min under gentle agitation. All specimens were subsequently subjected to 3ml 0.01M HCl stepwise for 4+4+4 min, and the acid aliquots retained for calcium analysis in a Model 3300 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, Perkin Elmer Analytical Instruments (Norwalk, CT, USA). Statistical analysis (one-way ANOVA/Bonferroni) showed that TiF4 reduced Ca-release from enamel by 75, 62 and 57% respectively compared with the control after the three acid exposures (p<0.05). The effect of TiF4 on pellicle-covered enamel was slightly better than for TiF4 alone, but this was not significant. These results may suggest that pre-treatment of enamel with a TiF4 solution with or without pellicle-removal provides protection for the enamel against acid attack.
