Noma (also referred to as cancrum oris, fusospirochetal gangrene, necrotizing ulcerative stomatitis, stomatitis gangrenosa) is a rapidly progressive, polymicrobial, often gangrenous infection of the mouth or genitals. ==Causes== ''Fusobacterium necrophorum'' and ''Prevotella intermedia'' are thought to be key players in the process and interact with one or more other bacterial organisms (such as ''Borrelia vincentii, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, Staphylococcus aureus, and nonhemolytic Streptococcus'' spp). The reported predisposing factors include: *malnutrition (particularly A-and B-vitamins) or dehydration *poor hygiene, particularly oral *unsafe drinking water *proximity to unkempt livestock *recent illness *an immunodeficiency disease, including AIDS 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Noma (disease)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
