Article Synopsis
  • * The study involved 50 postmenopausal women, divided into low and high visceral adiposity tissue (VAT) groups, assessing dietary intake, plasma endotoxemia markers, and gut microbiome through various tests.
  • * Results indicated that women with high VAT had a higher abundance of Proteobacteria, increased LBP levels, and elevated LPS-expressing bacteria, suggesting a link between gut bacteria, inflammation, and obesity.

β-Lactam antibiotics are a class of antibiotics commonly used to treat bacterial infections. However, the effects of β-lactam antibiotics on term neonatal intestinal flora have not been fully elucidated. Hospitalized full-term newborns receiving β-lactam antibiotics formed the antibiotic group (n = 67), while those without antibiotic treatment comprised the non-antibiotic group (n = 47).

This study aimed to investigate the differences in the gut microbiota among preterm infants with LOS, or pneumonia, and full-term infants. Furthermore, this study aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between intestinal pathogenic colonization and LOS.
