A new study conducted on women has found a significant relationship between migraine and poor oral health and chronic pain conditions including fibromyalgia.
Using genomics, research at the University of Sydney, Australia examined the oral microbiomes of about 160 women in New Zealand and identified specific microbes that were correlated with chronic pain.
The authors stated that lipopolcharides (a toxin) from the cell walls of some bacteria in the mouth are known to affect immune reactions and have been studied to contribute to pro-inflammatory cytokins in fibromyalgia-in which no widespread pain and fatigue, the authors said.
Conclusions published in Journal Frontiers in pain research suggest a possible relationship between oral microbiom and nervous system.
The study also highlights the importance of good oral health to address pain and improve overall well -being.
“This is the first study to examine the pain experienced in women with oral health, oral microbyota and fibromyalgia, our study showed a clear and important relationship between poor oral health and pain,” the chief researcher Joan Harenet said, the Associate Professor in the Faculty of Medicine of Medicine and Health of Sydney.
“Our findings are especially important for fibromyalgia, despite having a normal rheumatic position, often weakened,” said Sharon Erdrich, a PhD candidate from the university, the first writer, the university’s PhD candidate.
Fibromialgia is also marked by mood, cognitive and sleep disturbances.
For studies, women responded to the World Health Organization questionnaire on oral health. The body and abdominal pain, headache and migraine were measured using a survey, in which the international headache was created by the society.
Researchers stated that women with poorest oral health were more likely to suffer from high pain scores: 60 percent was more likely to have moderate experiences for severe body pain, and 49 percent was more likely to experience migraine headaches, the researchers said.
Poor oral health was an important prophet of persistent and old migraine.
Authors have written that 58 percent of migraine and 25 percent without migraine had the poorest oral health, while 21 percent of migraine and 54 percent without migraine had the best oral health.
“We hypothesize that these (oral) metabolites and/or bacteria increase pain in the pain system and the pain in the pain system contributes to the pathogenesis of unknownthic nopplastic pain that is associated with these central sensoryization disorders,” he wrote.
