Randomized controlled trial comparing the impacts of and OF44 on intestinal flora in cerebral palsy rats: insights into inflammation biomarkers and depression-like behaviors.

Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a unique neurological disorder which adversely affects motion. Cytokines and gut microbial composition contribute to CP and other diseases, such as reproductive tract inflammation and bone loss. Importantly, () reduces the degree of inflammation and improves overall health status.

Corrigendum: Dietary fiber and probiotics based on gut microbiota targeting for functional constipation in children with cerebral palsy.

Correlations between gastrointestinal and oral microbiota in children with cerebral palsy and epilepsy.

We here studied the correlation between gut and oral microbiota in children with cerebral palsy and Epilepsy (CPE). We enrolled 27 children with this condition from the social welfare center of Longgang District, collected their oral plaque and stool samples, and analyzed their gut microbiota (GM) and oral microbiota (OM) through 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Taxonomical annotation revealed that the levels of Firmicutes and Bacteroides in the oral cavity were significantly lower in CPE children than in healthy children, whereas the abundance of Actinomycetes increased significantly in CPE children.

Dietary fiber and probiotics based on gut microbiota targeting for functional constipation in children with cerebral palsy.

Unlabelled: Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are very common among children with cerebral palsy. Gut microbiota has been confirmed to maintain normal GI physiological function and further contributed to cerebral palsy through the gut-brain axis. Our study was to investigate the effect of dietary fiber combined with probiotics on functional constipated children with cerebral palsy.
