The recurrence rate of #Helicobacter pylori in recent 10 years: A systematic review and meta-analysis

To update and evaluate the recurrence rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication therapy in recent 10 years. MethodsA systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, and Web of science was performed to identify the studies of recurrence rate of H. pylori published from 2010 to 2019. Stata 15.0 was used for analysis. ResultsA total… Continue reading The recurrence rate of #Helicobacter pylori in recent 10 years: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Dietary #spinach reshapes the gut #microbiome in an Apc-mutant genetic background: mechanistic insights from integrated multi-omics

ABSTRACTComplex interrelationships govern the dynamic interactions between gut microbes, the host, and exogenous drivers of disease outcome. A multi-omics approach to cancer prevention by spinach (SPI) was pursued for the first time in the polyposis in rat colon (Pirc) model. SPI fed for 26 weeks (10% w/w, freeze-dried in the diet) exhibited significant antitumor efficacy… Continue reading Dietary #spinach reshapes the gut #microbiome in an Apc-mutant genetic background: mechanistic insights from integrated multi-omics

#Dysbiosis of the gut microbiome impairs mouse skeletal #muscle adaptation to exercise

Dysbiosis of the gut microbiome caused by continuous antibiotic treatment did not affect running activity.Continuous treatment with antibiotics did not result in systemic inflammation as indicated by serum cytokine levels.Gut microbiome dysbiosis was associated with blunted fiber-type specific hypertrophy in the soleus and plantaris muscles in response to progressive weighted wheel running (PoWeR).Gut microbiome dysbiosis… Continue reading #Dysbiosis of the gut microbiome impairs mouse skeletal #muscle adaptation to exercise

A Meta-Analysis on the Global Prevalence, Risk factors and Screening of Coronary #Heart Disease in Non-alcoholic #Fatty Liver Disease

Background and AimsCardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Studies examining the association of coronary heart disease (CHD) and NAFLD are cofounded by various cardiometabolic factors particularly diabetes and body mass index. Hence, we seek to explore such association by investigating the global prevalence, independent risk… Continue reading A Meta-Analysis on the Global Prevalence, Risk factors and Screening of Coronary #Heart Disease in Non-alcoholic #Fatty Liver Disease

Role and Mechanism of Gut #Microbiota in Human #Disease

The human gut microbiome is a huge microbial community that plays an irreplaceable role in human life. With the further development of research, the influence of intestinal flora on human diseases has been gradually excavated. Gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis has adverse health effects on the human body that will lead to a variety of chronic… Continue reading Role and Mechanism of Gut #Microbiota in Human #Disease

Computational drug repositioning of #atorvastatin for ulcerative #colitis

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disorder with limited effective therapeutic options for long-term treatment and disease maintenance. We hypothesized that a multi-cohort analysis of independent cohorts representing real-world heterogeneity of UC would identify a robust transcriptomic signature to improve identification of FDA-approved drugs that can be repurposed to treat patients with UC. Materials… Continue reading Computational drug repositioning of #atorvastatin for ulcerative #colitis

Baseline #Gut Metagenomic Functional Gene Signature Associated with Variable #Weight Loss Responses following a Healthy Lifestyle Intervention in Humans

Recent human feeding studies have shown how the baseline taxonomic composition of the gut microbiome can determine responses to weight loss interventions. However, the functional determinants underlying this phenomenon remain unclear. We report a weight loss response analysis on a cohort of 105 individuals selected from a larger population enrolled in a commercial wellness program,… Continue reading Baseline #Gut Metagenomic Functional Gene Signature Associated with Variable #Weight Loss Responses following a Healthy Lifestyle Intervention in Humans

Altered Composition of Gut #Microbiota in #Depression: A Systematic Review

Cumulative evidence shows a linkage between gut microbiota pattern and depression through the brain-gut microbiome axis. The aim of this systematic review was to identify the alterations of the gut microbiota patterns in people with depression compared to healthy controls. A comprehensive literature search of human studies, published between January 2000 and June 2019, was… Continue reading Altered Composition of Gut #Microbiota in #Depression: A Systematic Review

#Antibiotics Use and Subsequent Risk of #Colorectal Cancer: A Swedish Nationwide Population-Based Study

Antibiotics use may increase colorectal cancer (CRC) risk by altering the gut microbiota, with suggestive evidence reported. Our study aims to investigate antibiotics use in relation to subsequent CRC risk. MethodsThis is a nationwide, population-based study with a matched case-control design (first primary CRC cases and 5 matched, cancer-free controls). Complete-population data, extracted from Swedish… Continue reading #Antibiotics Use and Subsequent Risk of #Colorectal Cancer: A Swedish Nationwide Population-Based Study
