Journal ArticleDOI

Risk of Surgery for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Has Decreased Over Time: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Population-Based Studies

TL;DR: The risk of intestinal surgery among patients with IBD has decreased over the past 6 decades, and the trend in risk of surgery over time was analyzed by meta-regression using mixed-effect models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fecal microbiome and volatile organic compound metabolome in obese humans with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: A significant increase in fecal ester VOC is associated with compositional shifts in the microbiome of obese NAFLD patients, and these novel bacterial metabolomic and metagenomic factors are implicated in the etiology and complications of obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Invasive potential of gut mucosa-derived Fusobacterium nucleatum positively correlates with IBD status of the host.

TL;DR: This study indicates that colonization of the intestinal mucosa by highly invasive strains of F. nucleatum may be a useful biomarker for gastrointestinal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

NLRP3 inflammasome plays a key role in the regulation of intestinal homeostasis

TL;DR: An essential role for the NLRP3 inflammasome is confirmed in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis through its regulation of innate protective processes and biological insight into disease mechanisms associated with increased risk of CD in individuals withNLRP3 mutations is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

The human gut microbiome: current knowledge, challenges, and future directions

TL;DR: Next-generation sequencing technologies combined with advanced bioinformatics place us at the doorstep of revolutionary insight into the composition, capability, and activity of the human intestinal microbiome.
