J Oral Microbiol . 2020 May; 12(1):1746494. PMID: 32363007
: The interactions between yeast and streptococci species that lead to dental decay and gingivitis are poorly understood. Our study describes these associations among a cohort of 101 post-partum women...

Luo T, Srinivasan U, Ramadugu K, Shedden K, Neiswanger K, Trumble E, et al.
Appl Environ Microbiol . 2016 Jul; 82(18):5519-29. PMID: 27371581
Unlabelled: Community profiling of the oral microbiome requires the recovery of quality sequences in order to accurately describe microbial community structure and composition. Our objective was to assess the effects...

Foxman B, Luo T, Srinivasan U, Ramadugu K, Wen A, Goldberg D, et al.
Ann Epidemiol . 2016 May; 26(5):348-54. PMID: 27157862
Purpose: Family members share genes, environment, and microbial communities. If there is a strong effect of family on the salivary microbiota, controlling for family will enhance identification of microbial communities...

Front Microbiol . 2015 Mar; 6:182. PMID: 25814985
Objectives: Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging opportunistic nosocomial pathogen. Two factors that may enhance persistence in healthcare settings are antimicrobial resistance and biofilm-forming ability. The aim of this work was...

Dang T, Srinivasan U, Britt Z, Marrs C, Zhang L, Ki M, et al.
Epidemiol Health . 2014 Oct; 36:e2014022. PMID: 25322878
Objectives: Group B Streptococcus (GBS), a common bowel commensal, is a major cause of neonatal sepsis and an emerging cause of infection in immune-compromised adult populations. Fluoroquinolones are used to...

Khan A, Herdman G, Srinivasan U
BMJ Case Rep . 2013 Dec; 2013. PMID: 24336581
We discuss two cases of reactive focal myositis that had different clinical presentations but responded well to conservative management. These cases demonstrate that reactive myositis can present acutely but resolves...

Wen A, Srinivasan U, Goldberg D, Owen J, Marrs C, Misra D, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2013 Nov; 209(7):1087-94. PMID: 24273044
We examined the community ecology of vaginal microbial samples taken from pregnant women with previous preterm birth experience to investigate whether targeted pathogenic and commensal bacteria are related to risk...

Am J Obstet Gynecol . 2013 Oct; 210(3):226.e1-7. PMID: 24096128
Objective: Genital tract infection accounts for approximately 25-40% of all preterm births. We sought to assess the relationship between preterm birth and selected vaginal bacterial taxa associated with preterm birth...

Infect Genet Evol . 2013 Oct; 22:201-7. PMID: 24080168
As a proof of principle, we used an untargeted global metabolic profiling of saliva to understand the biochemical processes associated with dental decay, dentition (primary and secondary tooth eruption) and...

Infect Genet Evol . 2013 Jul; 19:212-8. PMID: 23891665
CRISPRs (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) are short fragments of DNA that act as an adaptive immune system protecting bacteria against invasion by phages, plasmids or other forms of...
