AI Article Synopsis
- A study examined 91 children with vitiligo, aged 3-16, and found a decrease in total T lymphocytes regardless of the level of intestinal dysbacteriosis.
- As intestinal dysbacteriosis worsened, the average number of T suppressors increased, indicating a shift in immune response.
- Natural killer cells, B lymphocytes, and levels of IgG and IgA rose significantly, suggesting a connection between immune system imbalance and dysbiosis in these children.
Article Abstract
A total of 91 children, aged 3-16 years, with vitiligo were examined. These examinations showed that the total number of T lymphocytes decreased irrespective of the degree of intestinal dysbacteriosis. The average number of T suppressors increased as dysbiotic changes in the intestine became more profound. The amount of natural killers, B lymphocytes, as well as the content of IgG and IgA (p < 0.001), increased irrespectively of the degree of intestinal dysbacteriosis. Thus the unbalance of the immunity system and dysbiotic changes in the intestine of children having vitiligo were Inter-related.

Introduction: Ulcerative colitis (UC), a form of inflammatory irritable bowel disease, is characterized by a recurrent and persistent nonspecific inflammatory response. Polydatin (PD), a natural stilbenoid polyphenol with potent properties, exhibits unexpected beneficial effects beyond its well-documented anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. In this study, we presented evidence that PD confers protection against dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis.

Introduction: Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the intestines with a rising global incidence. Traditional diagnostic and therapeutic methods have limitations, necessitating the exploration of more effective strategies.
Methods: In this study, we employed the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify genes that are differentially expressed in CD.

Background: Previous studies showed airborne bacteria affect pneumonia incidence, but specific impacts of bacterial communities on Klebsiella pneumoniae infection were unknown.
Methods: Five different ratios of bacterial community structures were randomly generated. Mice were divided into control, artificial bacterial community exposure, and corresponding Klebsiella pneumoniae challenge groups.

Objectives: This study aims to develop and validate nomograms that utilize morphological and radiomics features derived from computed tomography enterography (CTE) to evaluate inflammatory activity in patients with ileocolonic Crohn's disease (CD).
Methods: A total of 54 CD patients (237 bowel segments) with clinically confirmed CD were retrospectively analyzed. The Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) was used as a reference standard to quantify the degree of mucosal inflammation and assess disease severity.

Electronic address:
Tropomyosin (TM), the primary allergen in crustacean aquatic products, has excellent thermal and digestive stability. In this work, the changes in digestive resistance of TM and allergenicity of TM digestion products induced by ultrasound-assisted cold plasma (UCP) treatment were investigated. The stability of TM to simulated digestion were reduced, especially the simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) digestive resistance.
