RESUMO

Abstract Aerobic vaginitis (AV) is a recently defined vaginal recurring infection, which is treated with antibiotics. However, excessive and prolonged use of antibiotics disrupts healthy vaginal microflora and leads to the emergence of antibiotic resistance among pathogens. This situation has directed researchers to explore alternative antimicrobials. The current study describes in vitro and in vivo antimicrobial efficacy and pharmaceutical interactions between plant essential oils (EOs) and five lactic acid bacteria (LABs), isolated from the healthy vagina, against E. faecalis, one of the major etiological agents of AV. In vitro experiments confirm good antimicrobial activity of both plant EOs and cell free supernatant (CFS) from LABs. Based on high antimicrobial efficacy, Moringa essential oil (MO) was selected to determine its nature of interaction with CFS of five LAB strains. Synergism was recorded between MO and CFS of L. reuteri (MT180537). To validate in vitro findings, prophylactic responses of individual and synergistic application of MO and L. reuteri (MT180537) were evaluated in an E. faecalis (MW051601) induced AV murine model. The prophylactic efficacy was evidenced by a reduction in intensity of clinical symptoms, E. faecalis (MW051601) count per vaginal tissue along with a reduction in AV associated changes in histological markers of infection in animals receiving Moringa essential oil and L. reuteri (MT180537) alone or in combination. However, significant synergism between Moringa essential oil and L. reuteri (MT180537) could not be observed. Our data confirms the importance of in vivo experiments in deducing pharmacological interactions.


Resumo Vaginite aeróbica (VA) é uma infecção vaginal recorrente definida recentemente, que é tratada com antibióticos. No entanto, o uso excessivo e prolongado de antibióticos perturba a microflora vaginal saudável e leva ao surgimento de resistência aos antibióticos entre os patógenos. Esta situação levou os pesquisadores a explorar antimicrobianos alternativos. O presente estudo descreve a eficácia antimicrobiana in vitro e in vivo e as interações farmacêuticas entre óleos essenciais vegetais (OE) e cinco bactérias lácticas (BAL), isoladas de vagina sã, contra E. faecalis, um dos principais agentes etiológicos da AV. Os experimentos in vitro confirmam a boa atividade antimicrobiana de ambos os EOs de plantas e sobrenadante livre de células (CFS) de LABs. Com base na alta eficácia antimicrobiana, o óleo essencial de Moringa (MO) foi selecionado para determinar sua natureza de interação com o sobrenadante livre de células (CFS) de cinco cepas de LAB. Sinergismo foi registrado entre MO e CFS de L. reuteri (MT180537). Para validar os resultados in vitro, as respostas profiláticas da aplicação individual e sinérgica de MO e L. reuteri (MT180537) foram avaliadas em um modelo murino AV induzido por E. faecalis (MW051601). A eficácia profilática foi evidenciada por uma redução na intensidade dos sintomas clínicos, contagem de E. faecalis (MW051601) por tecido vaginal, juntamente com uma redução nas alterações associadas a AV nos marcadores histológicos de infecção em animais que receberam óleo essencial de Moringa e L. reuteri (MT180537) sozinho ou em combinação. No entanto, não foi possível observar sinergismo significativo entre o óleo essencial de Moringa e L. reuteri (MT180537). Nossos dados confirmam a importância dos experimentos in vivo na dedução de interações farmacológicas.

RESUMO

Objective To compare the different methods for treating aerobic vaginitis and mixed clinical effects of infection.Methods A randomized controlled method was used,298 cases of aerobic vaginitis and mixed infections were randomly divided into control group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective therapy,the treatment group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective at the same treatment plus lactobacillus vaginal medication.And the therapeutic effect was evaluated.Results The difference of the clinical efficacy of aerobic vagi-nitis treatment of mixed infections was not statistically significant (total effective rate of 95.3% in the treatment group,92.6% in the control group).With the time of treatment extended,the effective rate increased,the use of com-bination anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal administration group of aerobic bacteria vaginosis and recurrence rate was significantly reduced in patients with mixed infection (recurrence rate was 6.0% in the treatment group and 12.8% was in the control group,χ2 =3.941 3,P <0.05).Conclusion The combination of anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal drug treatment aerobic mixed infections and vagini-tis has slightly higher effective rate than the use of combination anti -infective treatment,the former relapse rate was significantly reduced.

RESUMO

Background: Aerobic vaginitis (AV) is caused by a displacement of the healthy vaginal Lactobacillus species with aerobic pathogens such as Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus that triggers a localized vaginal inflammatory immune response. AV if it is not diagnosed and treated early, especially during pregnancy can place the health of both the mother and the foetus at risk as it is associated with preterm birth, premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and chorioamnionitis. Hence the present study aims at analysing the prevalence of aerobic vaginitis in females in the reproductive age group (15-45 years) with special reference to pregnancy, pathogens involved and their antibiogram. Methods: Over one year period, high vaginal swabs were collected from 125 women with clinical suspicion of vaginitis. They were then subjected to Gram’ staining and culture was made onto blood agar, chocolate agar and MacConkey agar and incubated aerobically at 37 0c for 24 hours. The AV score was determined and the organisms were then identified and antibiotic sensitivity test of isolates were performed. Results: The prevalence of Aerobic vaginitis in this study was 20.8% (26/125) and the most common age group affected was between 26-30 years. Out of the 26 positive cases, 21 samples yielded monobacterial growth and 5 cases polybacterial growth. The most common organism isolated was Enterococcus faecalis (32.26%), followed by Escherichia coli (25.8%), Staphylococcus aureus (19.35%) and β-hemolytic streptococci (9.68%). Antibiotics like β–lactams/ β–lactamase inhibitor combinations, vancomycin and linezolid were found to be more effective against all Gram positive isolates whereas the Gram negative isolates were more sensitive towards β–lactams/ β–lactamase inhibitor combination, aminoglycosides and meropenem. Conclusions: This study emphasized on the need to identify the aerobic vaginal pathogens associated with vaginitis especially in reproductive age group women which can go a long way in preventing the adverse outcomes associated with pregnancy and also ensures the necessity to determine the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of the pathogens which can aid in making a suitable therapeutic choice for 'aerobic vaginitis' by considering an antibiotic that is characterized by an intrinsic activity against the majority of bacteria of faecal origin, bactericidal effect and without any interference with the vaginal microbiota.

RESUMO

El parto pretérmino y sus complicaciones constituyen uno de los problemas más relevantes en el campo de la atención perinatológica. Se ha demostrado su estrecha relación con la infección intraútero, de manera que las alteraciones de la flora vaginal son la puerta de entrada. El objetivo de esta revisión es actualizar a la comunidad médica de esta disciplina en la necesidad de identificar la vaginosis bacteriana y la vaginitis aeróbica, tanto en el nivel primario de atención como en el secundario, lo cual permitirá realizar acciones preventivas y terapéuticas en la etapa preconcepcional, a fin de minimizar las infecciones intraútero y su relación con el nacimiento pretérmino, así como las complicaciones a corto y largo plazo. Se concluye que el diagnóstico de ambas afecciones necesita de un control preventivo y terapéutico para la reducción de las complicaciones perinatales.


Preterm birth and its complications are one of the most important problems in the field of perinatology care. Its close relationship with intrauterine infection has been demonstrated, so that changes of vaginal flora are the gateway. The purpose of this review is to update the medical community of this specialty on the need for identifying bacterial vaginosis and aerobic vaginitis, both at the primary and secondary care, allowing to perform preventive and therapeutic actions on the preconception stage, in order to minimize intrauterine infections and their relation to preterm birth and complications in the short and long term. It is concluded that the diagnosis of both conditions requires a preventive and therapeutic control for reducing perinatal complications.
