Altered human gut virome in patients undergoing antibiotics therapy for Helicobacter pylori. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 Here, Wang et al. use metagenomic sequencing to explore the impact of antibiotic treatment for Helicobacter pylori on the gut virome community in infected patients, showing that recurrent treatment leads to a lower virus community diversity and altered ...
