The Gut Microbiome Advances Precision Medicine and Diagnostics for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases.

The gut microbiome emerges as an integral component of precision medicine because of its signature variability among individuals and its plasticity, which enables personalized therapeutic interventions, especially when integrated with other multiomics data. This promise is further fueled by advances in next-generation sequencing and metabolomics, which allow in-depth high-precision profiling of microbiome communities, their genetic contents, and secreted chemistry. This knowledge has advanced our understanding of our microbial partners, their interaction with cellular targets, and their implication in human conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Assessing Syrian women's knowledge of breast cancer risk factors, warning signs, and barriers to preventive measures: A cross-sectional study.

Background: This study aims to investigate the knowledge of Syrian women about breast cancer risk factors, warning signals, and barriers. Breast cancer is the most common cancer worldwide and the leading cause of cancer death among women. It develops when cells in the breast tissue grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor that can spread to other parts of the body.
