The Human Gut Virome in Hypertension
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Objectives: Previous studies have reported that the gut microbiome has an important link with the development of hypertension. Though previous researches have focused on the links of gut bacteria with hypertension, little has been known about the linkage

The emerging role of the gut virome in necrotizing enterocolitis [PDF]
HeliyonNecrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal emergency in neonates, particularly preterm infants. Many factors can lead to NEC, but microbial dysbiosis is one of the most important risk factors that can induce this disease.
