TL;DR: Human milk oligosaccharides inhibit the adhesion to epithelial cells not only of common pathogens like E. coli but also for the first time of other aggressive bacteria as V. cholerae and S. fyris, demonstrating one of the important defensive factors contained in human milk against acute diarrheal infections of breast-fed infants.

TL;DR: The data confirm lower lactose concentrations in preterm milk, compared with term milk, and they provide the first detailed characterization of oligosaccharides in pre Term milk, demonstrating important differences in oligosACcharide contents in the 4 groups.

TL;DR: The "bifidogenic effect" of human milk is not related to a single growth-promoting substance, but rather to a complex of interacting factors that promote a bifidobacteria-dominant microflora.

TL;DR: Data show that milk groups 1, 2, and 3, containing an amount of oligosaccharides ranging within 10 to 15 g/L, share a substantially identical composition of the intestinal microbiota in breast-fed infants, despite quali-quantitative difference in oligosACcharides content.

TL;DR: The prevalence of celiac disease in children in Italy in 2015-2016 was found to be greater than 1.5%; this value has increased significantly over the past 25 years.
