Gut colonization during the first days of life represents the start of the infant's own microbiota. This process is influenced by different factors: delivery type, feeding type, antibiotic treatment, etc. On the one hand, vaginally delivered babies are in contact with mother's vaginal and faecal
Humans have co-evolved with populations of colonising microbes and their genomes to establish a mutually beneficial relationship. The gut microbiome represents the largest population of resident microbes in humans and is highly diverse and plays essential roles in digestion and pathogen protection.
The mechanisms of obesity are complex, involved in genes, environment, life style, and systemic and adipose tissue inflammation. Dysbiosis of gut microbiome is considered to make a difference in obesity. On the other hand, both long-term and short-term dietary interventions can induce changes in the
The gastrointestinal tract begins its colonization shortly after the birth. During the first two years of life, microbiota is unstable and less diverse than in adulthood, when its complexity and diversity are modified. There are more than 100 trillion microorganisms hosted in the gut, mostly as
The optimal daily dose of metformin is thought to be 2000 mg, however patients with metformin intolerance cannot reach this target dose. Participate in this study are metformin intolerant. Metformin intolerant patients have been defined as those not able to be treated with the metformin daily dose
Over one million infants are born to HIV-1-infected women every year in Sub Saharan Africa. In Zimbabwe, annual births stand at 379,000 with approximately 48,000 infants being born every year to HIV-1-infected women on lifelong highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Concerns have been
This study has two arms: 1) cross-sectional observation on healthy participants, and 2) multi-center, prospective study of 3 month duration (pre and post design) on obese participants undergoing bariatric procedure.
Population study: Forty Emirati obese adults from UAE and 40 Lebanese obese adults
Tea is the most abundantly consumed prepared beverage in the world. Green tea, containing catechins, exerts antiinflammatory activities. However, a fundamental gap exists concerning its intestinal-level targets that can prevent metabolic syndrome (MetS) development and progression. Studies in obese
Gut microbiota is the largest microorganisms pool in the human body. The physiological roles of gut microbiota for digestion, metabolism, immune homeostasis, GI-tract infection prevention and anti-inflammation. The very first colonized gut microbiota of infant are from maternal vaginal fluid. Gut
1. Background:
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic intestinal inflammation, affecting approximately 130,000 Canadians. Its incidence and prevalence is rising worldwide. The disease etiology is unknown; however its pathogenesis is thought to be mediated by commensal gut bacteria, affected by
The aim of the study was to observed the effects of a 12-week high intensity interval training (HIIT) combined with resistance training (RT) program on gut microbiota and body composition changes in postmenopausal women.
30 postmenopausal women will be randomly assigned to HIIT + RT (n= 15) group or
The prostate gland is a clinically important male accessory sex gland and vital for its production of semen. Prostate cancer (PCa) is now ranked 3th in annual incidence of male cancer and ranked 5th for cancer-related death in men in Hong Kong which accounts for about 10.9 deaths per 100,000
The METABIOTE study will be systematically proposed to patients selected for sporadic CRC surgery during the first preoperative outpatient visit. The attending surgeon will double-check all inclusion and exclusion criteria. An oral and written information will be given to patients, presenting the
