This is because Porphyromonas gingivalis (or "PG") is a that is a leading cause of gum disease worldwide. Porphyromonas gingivalis is an anaerobic, gram-negative bacterium Recently, it has even been linked to Alzheimer's disease in the field of neuroscience. To gain a better understanding of this bacterium, let's explore its journey from the oral microbiota to the brain. ".

A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.
To repeat the citation for other statements, the reference needs to have a names: "<ref name=aa>"
The repeated citation works like this, with a forward slash.[1]
Section 1
Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.
Every point of information REQUIRES CITATION using the citation tool shown above.
Section 2
Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.
