The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

Alteration of the intestinal microbiota as a cause of and a potential therapeutic option in irritable bowel syndrome

, 2014
The intestinal microbiota forms a complex ecosystem that is in close contact with its host and has an important impact on health. An increasing number of disorders are associated with disturbances in this ecosystem. Also patients suffering from irritable

From Adult to Adolescent: Alignment in Clinical Trials and Outcomes in Axial Spondyloarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases encompassing axial and peripheral forms, with up to 20% of patients developing symptoms before age 16. Despite this substantial pediatric burden, treatment options for juvenile‐onset SpA (JSpA), particularly those with axial disease (axJSpA), remain limited.

Beneficial microbes in a changing environment: are they always helping plants to deal with insects? [PDF]

, 2013
Plants have a complex immune system that defends them against attackers (e.g. herbivores and microbial pathogens) but that also regulates the interactions with mutualistic organisms (e.g.

Beneficial microbes, plant extracts and cropping systems enhance maize yield and land use efficiency via rhizosphere microbial biomass nitrogen, acid phosphatase and urease activities

Discover Agriculture
Maize production plays vital roles in food security and income of many farmers, but poor soil fertility poses significant challenge to yield, irrespective of the cropping system. This field study was setup as split plot in two alternate cropping seasons (

Biochemical Features of Beneficial Microbes: Foundations for Therapeutic Microbiology

, 2017
Commensal and beneficial microbes secrete myriad products which target the mammalian host and other microbes. These secreted substances aid in bacterial niche development, and select compounds beneficially modulate the host and promote health.

Are ecological processes that select beneficial traits in agricultural microbes nature's intellectual property rights? [PDF]

, 2023
Novel beneficial traits in agricultural microbes represent inventive steps of nature, but the inability of patent laws to reward nonhuman inventors has led to conflicts over microbial ownership rights and presents barriers to the sharing of ...
