Exploratory study of the oral microbiota in pregnant women with hypothyroidism and their infants
The oral microbiota of pregnant women with hypothyroidism and their one-month-old infants exhibited disease-specific characteristics. These findings suggest that maternal hypothyroidism may influence the oral microbiota of offspring, underscoring the importance of monitoring oral microbiota in mothers with hypothyroidism and their children.
