高血糖增加龋齿风险,大阪研究发现

大阪大学研究人员发现,持续高血糖水平会提高龋齿风险,因为糖分从血液转移到唾液。在对约60名糖尿病和非糖尿病个体的调查中,较高的血糖与唾液中葡萄糖和果糖增加,以及龋齿和牙菌斑增加相关。

大阪大学的一个研究团队确定,糖尿病和其他因素引起的持续高血糖水平会提高龋齿风险,因为血液中的糖分转移到唾液中。该团队由坂中晶人讲师领导,对约60名糖尿病和非糖尿病个体进行了调查,以探讨血糖对口腔健康的影响。他们收集了腺唾液——从唾液腺新鲜分泌的唾液——来分析糖分和血液来源代谢物的转移。研究结果显示,血糖水平较高的个体从血液向唾液转移的葡萄糖和果糖更多,导致龋齿和牙菌斑增加。对牙菌斑的检查显示,引起龋齿的细菌增加,而支持口腔健康的细菌减少。口腔微生物群更倾向于分解糖分并产生酸,从而促进牙齿侵蚀。相反,当糖尿病患者住院并控制血糖时,唾液中的糖分水平下降,口腔细菌平衡改善,龋齿相关细菌减少,有益细菌增加。这种改善无需任何牙科治疗就发生了,表明有效的血糖管理直接改善了口腔健康。“我们发现血糖水平会影响龋齿,”坂中说。“我们希望调查通过唾液供应的糖分量以及对健康人群的影响。”该研究于去年晚些时候发表在国际期刊《Microbiome》上。

Study ties cavities and gum disease to higher stroke risk

People with both cavities and gum disease had an 86% higher risk of ischemic stroke than those with healthy mouths, according to research published October 22, 2025, in Neurology Open Access. The two-decade study of 5,986 adults linked poor oral health to higher rates of major cardiovascular events, while emphasizing the findings show association, not causation.

Researchers have discovered a unique oral microbiome signature in people with obesity, potentially offering early detection and prevention strategies. The finding, based on saliva samples from Emirati adults, highlights differences in bacteria and metabolic pathways associated with metabolic dysfunction. However, scientists caution that the relationship's causality remains unclear.

A large genetic study has found that sharp rises in blood sugar after meals could significantly heighten the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers from the University of Liverpool analyzed data from over 350,000 UK Biobank participants, revealing a 69% increased risk linked to postprandial hyperglycemia. The effect appears independent of visible brain damage, pointing to subtler biological mechanisms.

Researchers at the University of Sydney have discovered that type 2 diabetes directly alters the heart's structure and energy production, increasing the risk of heart failure. By examining donated human heart tissue, the team identified molecular changes that stiffen the muscle and disrupt cellular function. These findings, published in EMBO Molecular Medicine, highlight a unique profile in patients with both diabetes and ischemic heart disease.

A large case-control study in India reports that drinking about one standard drink a day (roughly 9 grams of alcohol) is associated with an estimated 50% higher risk of buccal mucosa cancer. The researchers also estimate that the combination of alcohol use and chewing tobacco may account for about 62% of cases nationally, with the strongest association seen among people who mainly consumed locally brewed alcoholic beverages.

A new genetic study indicates that obesity and high blood pressure directly contribute to dementia, beyond merely raising its risk. Researchers from Denmark and the U.K. used advanced methods to establish this causal link, emphasizing prevention through weight and blood pressure management. The findings suggest early interventions could avert vascular-related dementia.

Researchers have detected preserved metabolic molecules in bones from 1.3 to 3 million years ago, shedding light on prehistoric animals' diets, health, and environments. The findings, from sites in Tanzania, Malawi, and South Africa, indicate warmer and wetter conditions than today. One fossil even shows traces of a parasite that still affects humans.
