Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections remain a significant public health concern in rural areas, often leading to nutritional and physical impairment, particularly in children. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of ...
Discovery of disease-related bacterial biomarkers could be a useful approach for early prevention or diagnosis of various afflictions, such as colorectal cancer. This typically involves analyzing small regions of the 16S rRNA gene (e.g. V3V4) through...
The critical role of gut microbiota in human health and disease has been increasingly illustrated over the past decades, with a significant amount of research demonstrating an unmet need for self-monitor of the fecal microbial composition in an easil...
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is potentially curative for hematologic malignancies but is frequently complicated by relapse and immune-mediated complications, such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Emerging ...
Hyperuricemia (HUA) and gout result from imbalances in uric acid metabolism and are closely associated with the gut microbiota. Advanced analytical methods facilitate the exploration of microbiota complexity. In this study, 16S rRNA sequencing data f...
There is mounting evidence for a link between behaviour and the gut microbiome in animal and human health. However, the role of the gut microbiome in the development and severity of behavioural issues in companion dogs is not yet fully understood. He...
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disorder frequently accompanied by psychological symptoms. Bacterial microbiota plays a critical role in mediating local and systemic immunity, and alterations in these microbial communities...
In this work, we developed an automated system for the detection and classification of soil-transmitted helminths (STH) and Schistosoma (S.) mansoni eggs in microscopic images of fecal smears. We assembled an STH and S. mansoni dataset comprising ove...
Altered gut metabolites are important for the inflammatory progression in children with NAFLD. Fecal and plasma samples were collected from 145 subjects including 53 non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), 39 nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and 53 obes...
Soil-transmitted helminths primarily comprise Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworms, infecting more than 600 million people globally, particularly in underserved communities. Manual microscopy of Kato-Katz thick smears is a widely ...
