Subgingival microbial community structure in HCC patients with periodontitis: 16S rRNA sequencing, functional prediction, and phenotypic profiling
The subgingival microbiota of HCC-PD patients differs significantly from that of PD patients in terms of diversity, structure, relative abundance of dominant bacteria, and function, providing microbiological evidence for the 'oral-liver axis' mechanism and offering reference value for disease risk assessment and intervention.
