Dolutegravir and bictegravir are second-generation HIV integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) that were previously associated with abnormal weight gain. This monocentric cross-sectional study investigates associations between weight gain durin...
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...

Fluorinated compounds are used for agrochemical, pharmaceutical, and numerous industrial applications, resulting in global contamination. In many molecules, fluorine is incorporated to enhance the half-life and improve bioavailability. Fluorinated co...
Little is known about host-gut microbiome interactions within natural populations at the intestinal mucosa, the primary interface. We investigate associations between the intestinal microbiome and mucosal immune measures while controlling for host, s...
Although COVID-19 primarily affects the respiratory system, many patients experience gastrointestinal symptoms, suggesting a role for the gut microbiota in disease pathogenesis. To explore this, we performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing on stool sa...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Fecal calprotectin (FCP) has limited specificity as diagnostic biomarker of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), leading to unnecessary invasive endoscopies. This study aimed to develop and validate a fecal microbiota and ...
Gut microbiota has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple gastrointestinal (GI) and systemic metabolic and inflammatory disorders where disrupted gut microbiota composition and function (dysbiosis) has been found in multiple studies. Thus, h...
Diagnosing ASD in adults presents unique challenges, and there are currently no specific biomarkers for this condition. Most existing studies on the gut microbiota in ASD are conducted in children; however, the composition of the gut microbiota in c...
Alterations in the gut microbiome affect the development and severity of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). We analyzed microbiomes of obese children with and w...
Dose-limiting toxicities pose a major barrier to cancer treatment. While preclinical studies show that the gut microbiota influences and is influenced by anticancer drugs, data from patients paired with careful side effect monitoring remains limited....
