“…Nevertheless, it is also suggested that H. pylori may be present in the oral environment as normal bacterial flora 22 . H. pylori has been detected both in supragingival and subgingival plaques, and in saliva with and without a concomitant stomach infection 11 , 14 .…”

Objective Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the most common bacterial infections in men. This gastrointestinal pathogen is closely related to gastritis, peptic ulcers, and the increased risk of gastric cancer. Numerous studies have indicated oral cavities as possible Helicobacter pylori reservoirs. Helicobacter pylori has been detected both in supragingival and subgingival plaques, and also in saliva. In addition, the relationship between lesions of oral mucosa and the presence of H. pylori has been evaluated and described in some studies. The aim of this study was to assess the presence of Helicobacter pylori DNA in the oral cavity of patients with oral leukoplakia and oral lichen planus.Material and Methods The study included 54 patients with oral leukoplakia, 72 with oral lichen planus lesions, and 40 healthy controls. The presence of Helicobacter pylori in oral cavity samples was analyzed using a single-step Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method. All patients underwent a periodontal examination and the following clinical parameters were collected: pocket depth, bleeding, and plaque indexes. The periodontal status was assessed using the Offenbacher classification.Results In most patients, pathological lesions were in typical sites on the buccal mucosa (leukoplakia in 88%, and oral lichen planus in 93% of patients). The DNA of the Helicobacter pylori was present in 20% of patients with leukoplakia and 23% of patients with lichen planus. We did not find the DNA of H. pylori in healthy controls. The periodontal status described by periodontal indices was worse in the investigated group than in the control group.Conclusion These findings suggest that the H. pylori presence in oral cavities may be related with leukoplakia and lichen planus oral lesions.

“…85 Even though the foundations for its development were laid because of the conditionality pressure, migration policy was established as a national public policy on a strategic level just after Bulgaria's accession to the EU. 86 Bulgaria developed four national migration strategies after 2007. The first, the National Strategy on Migration and Integration (2008-2015), claimed to set the grounds for the development of a consistent national policy on managing migration and integration.…”

This chapter aims to illustrate national variances in instruments conducive to circular migration as part of the implementation of the EU’s approach. It serves as an introduction to the two different national approaches to circular migration facilitation developed in Bulgaria and Poland, which were chosen as case studies. First, the chapter examines the respective strategies of these two countries in their pre-accession periods that influenced the instruments developed in Bulgaria and Poland. Second, it zooms in on the national contexts in order to put some flesh on the different instruments seen as fostering circular migration at the national level.

“…Oral causes are linked to deep carious lesions, oral infections, periodontal disease, peri-implant disease, mucosal ulcerations, pericoronitis, impacted debris or food, poor oral health care, tongue coating, certain foods, improper cleaning of dentures, xerostomia, frequent use of tobacco products, Helicobacter pylori infection, and other medical conditions (3,4,5).…”

Halitosis is a health condition associated with an unpleasant odor from the oral cavity. The origin of bad breath may be related to systemic and oral conditions, but the large percentage of cases (about 85%) are related to oral factors.Our aim was to investigate the presence and degree of halitosis in healthy patients and to compare it according to age and gender. We examined 79 healthy patients with an apparatus to measure bad breath -HC-212SF FitScan Breath Checker of Tanita Corporation of America, Inc.We obtained a result of 0.87 for the group under 18 years old, 1 for the group 19-51 years old and 1.5 for the group over 51 years. In our study the average value was 0.88 for men and 1.39 for women.Of all tested individuals about one-third did not show any bad odor, while 77 percent had some degree of positive result. Considering the condition in relation to gender, we observed that 43% of men and 25% of women do not have a bad breath odor. About 29% had the lowest positive value (1), value 2 -about 28% and only 1.3% had a very high degree of halitosis.This study indicates augmentation of the values of bad breath with the increasing of age. Women suffer from halitosis more often. In all age groups we observed higher degree of bad breath in women.
