В монографии, посвященной результатам многолетних исследований авторов в области стоматологии и коморбидной патологии с позиций клинической микробиологии и иммунологии освещаются вопросы этиологии и патогенеза заболеваний полости рта, связанные с формированием и функционированием микробиома слизистой оболочки, зубов и пародонта. Комплекс данных исследований выполнен в рамках Государственных заданий Научно-исследовательского медико-стоматологического института (НИМСИ) и профильных кафедр Московского государственного медико-стоматологического университета им. А.И. Евдокимова Минздрава РФ — микробиологии, вирусологии, иммунологии; пародонтологии; пропедевтики стоматологических заболеваний; внутренних болезней и гастроэнтерологии; эндокринологии и диабетологии. В работе с современных позиций изучения микробных биопленок (микрофлюидика, метагеномный анализ, секвенирование ДНК, ПЦР и др.), метаболических и иммунологических эффектов микробиоценоза полости рта раскрываются особенности заболеваний полости рта и их взаимосвязей с коморбидной патологией — сахарным диабетом, заболеваниями суставов, желудочно-кишечного тракта, нервной системы. Особое внимание уделяется значимости влияния пародонтопатогенной микробиоты на организм, ее системным эффектам, а также инновационным диагностическим и лечебным подходам.
Монография выражает совместный научный взгляд микробиолога, иммунолога, стоматолога, эндокринолога и интерниста на проблему определяющего влияния микроэкологии полости рта в развитии коморбидной патологии.
Предназначена для широкого круга специалистов-медиков, а предполагаемая когорта читателей — это врачи-стоматологи, врачи различных лечебных специальностей, студенты старших курсов медицинских вузов, ординаторы, аспиранты и все, кто интересуется междисциплинарными подходами в сфере медико-биологических наук.

Книга представляет собой обзор современных исследований микроорганизмов, обитающих в криогенных средах нашей планеты, а также некоторых инженерных технологий их извлечения из глубин ледяных щитов и холодных вод. В монографии обсуждаются вопросы биологического разнообразия микробиоты криогенных мест обитания, освещены механизмы адаптации клеток к изменяющимся условиям окружающей среды, различные аспекты сохранения и изменения вирулентности патогенных и условно-патогенных микроорганизмов, роль микробной биомассы в качестве одного из факторов развития процессов глобального потепления. Особый интерес представляет оценка авторами криосферы в качестве модельного объекта для изучения распределения микроорганизмов в самых различных биотопах и исследования пределов распространения живой материи вне нашей планеты.
Для специалистов различных отраслей биологии и медицины, в том числе микробиологов, специалистов в области медицинской микробиологии и эпидемиологии инфекционных заболеваний, генетиков, экологов и почвоведов. Книга может представлять интерес для исследователей в области наук о Земле, например для мерзлотоведов, гляциологов, океанологов, геологов, геохимиков и др., а также для студентов и аспирантов, изучающих естественнонаучные дисциплины или специализирующихся в медицине.

Incorporation of the recent advances of medical microbiology. Written in simple, brief and easy lucid language. Enriched with colored illustrations, flowcharts, tables, etc. added to enhance the understanding of the text. A few new chapters, such as zoonosis, quality control is also included. Inclusion of parasitology (Protozoa and Helminths) and entomology is distinct inclusion. Clinical microbiology and applied microbiology has been covered sufficiently. The volume remains comprehensive and compact.

What is new in this edition? Divided into two parts-(1) General Microbiology, Immunology and Hospital Infection Control and (II) Systemic Microbiology. Systemic Microbiology (Infectious Diseases)-eight sections, each comprises of a first chapter on clinical infective syndrome followed by several chapters covering detailed information about the etiological agents. Chapters on Clinical Infective Syndromes-represent the first chapter of every Systemic Microbiology section, covers various infective syndromes pertaining to that system in detail. Parasitology topics-have been updated as per the current need of Indian Medical Graduate and discussed under respective infective syndromes. Hospital Infection Control Section-thoroughly updated in various topics such as major HAI types, monitoring of antimicrobial stewardship, escalation vs de-escalation strategy, donning/doffing of PPE and transmission-based precautions. General Microbiology Section-meticulously restructured with the inclusion of general virology, general parasitology and general mycology chapters. General bacteriology is reorganized into a single chapter with several subchapters. Overview Chapters-incorporated in the General Microbiology section, which will help in better understanding of organisms when discussed under Systemic Microbiology. COVID-19 Chapter-has been revised and updated as per the current scenario. AETCOM Module-has been updated as per the CBME curriculum for second MBBS students. Recent Advances-updates made in laboratory diagnosis, treatment guidelines and vaccine prophylaxis of infectious diseases, of note tuberculosis and HIV. Epidemiology Updates Included on-recent outbreaks and geographical distribution with special emphasis on Indian epidemiology. References followed from the latest editions of Harrison, Mandell, Bailey & Scott, CDC and WHO websites and health care programme/guidelines such as ICMR, NCDC, NTEP, NACO, NVBDCP, Immunization and GPEI, etc. Inclusion of more tables, flowcharts, real images and schematic diagram-for better understanding. One weapon, two targets-MBBS exam and NExT entrance: Only textbook written in a National Exit Test (NExT)-oriented way so that the matter of textbook does not differ a lot from a PG entrance book (major deficiency with all other Indian UG textbooks). Most features of the previous editions are maintained. More content, less pageshandy look, saves students time. Concise, bulleted format and to-the-point text-easy to read during MBBS examination. Simple and lucid language makes the understanding easy. Separate boxes for summary of laboratory diagnosis and treatment-for quick review. Clinical case-based essay questions and MCQs incorporated at the end of each chapter.
