Normal Microbiota: Fusobacterium species are part of the normal microbiota in the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract. In these environments, they play a role in various microbial communities and may contribute to the balance of the microbiome.
Oral Health: Fusobacterium nucleatum, a species within the Fusobacteriaceae family, is a common bacterium in the oral cavity. While it is a normal part of the oral microbiota, high levels of Fusobacterium nucleatum have been associated with periodontal diseases and gingivitis.
Association with Diseases: Fusobacterium species, particularly Fusobacterium nucleatum, have been implicated in various diseases beyond the oral cavity. Some studies suggest associations between Fusobacterium and conditions such as colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), and certain infections, including Lemierre's syndrome, a rare but serious condition.
Colorectal Cancer: There is evidence suggesting a potential link between Fusobacterium nucleatum and colorectal cancer. This bacterium has been found in higher abundance in colorectal tumor tissues in some studies. However, the nature of this association and the mechanisms involved are areas of ongoing research.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
