TL;DR: A review of the potential uses of probiotic bacteria for the treatment of mastitis and to inhibit mother-to-infant transfer of HIV is presented in this article, showing that selected strains isolated from breast milk can be good candidates for use as probiotics.

TL;DR: Women assigned to the probiotic groups improved more and had lower recurrence of mastitis than those assign to the antibiotic group, and appeared to be an efficient alternative to the use of commonly prescribed antibiotics for the treatment of infectious mastitis during lactation.

TL;DR: Analysis of the PET studies revealed that the administration of GLP‐1(7–36) amide significantly reduced cerebral glucose metabolism in hypothalamus and brainstem, and the lower activity observed in these areas after peptide administration may be due to reduction of the glucose transport and/or glucose phosphorylation, which should modulate the glucose sensing process in the GLUT‐2‐ and GK‐containing cells.

TL;DR: ABSTRACT In this study, 20 women with staphylococcal mastitis were randomly divided in two groups and those in the probiotic group daily ingested 10 log10 CFU of Lactobacillus salivarius and L. gasseri CECT5714 for 4 weeks, while women in the control one only ingested the excipient.

TL;DR: The presence of S. epidermidis is a differential trait of the fecal microbiota of breast-fed infants, which contains a low number of virulence determinants and are sensitive to most of the antibiotics tested.
