The book 'Oral Microbiome in Endocarditis Patients' focuses on the analysis of the human oral microbiome in patients with infective endocarditis and healthy individuals. The author, Sathya Narayanan.G, uses 16S rRNA metagenomic analysis to investigate the microbial diversity and composition of the oral cavity in these two groups. The book highlights the importance of oral health in the prevention of infective endocarditis, a serious condition in which the inner lining of the heart becomes infected. The author examines the role of specific bacterial species in the development of infective endocarditis and explores potential treatment strategies based on this knowledge. The book also provides valuable insights into the normal composition of the oral microbiome in healthy individuals, which can be used as a reference for future studies. The author discusses the impact of various factors such as diet, smoking, and hygiene on the oral microbiome and its potential implications for overall health.Overall, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the oral microbiome in relation to infective endocarditis and highlights the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene for overall health.
