Preterm gut microbiota and metabolome following discharge from intensive care

, 2015
The development of the preterm gut microbiome is important for immediate and longer-term health following birth. We aimed to determine if modifications to the preterm gut on the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) impacted the gut microbiota and ...

Advanced Dental Composite Technology via Bisilanized Dual‐Action Nanofillers for Biofilm Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multimodal research strategy has led to the development of an innovative resin‐based composite (RBC) with dual antibacterial action. The S_CM‐RBC formula showed strong antibiofilm activity, excellent mechanical strength, and biosafety. It effectively controlled oral bacteria in prevention of caries recurrence, and maintained pulp health in a rat ...

Comprehensive multi omics explore the microbial function in metabolic pathway flow during altered diet

npj Science of Food
High-protein diet (HPD) and high-fiber diet (HFiD) are two common types of diet, and the transition from HPD to HFiD frequently happens in people who perform diet control. Gut microbiota provide a bridge between diet and health.

Impact of data compositionality on the detection of microbiota responses

Gut Microbes
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) data usage is widespread, but its compositional nature poses challenges. We evaluated four normalization methods (relative abundance, CLR, TMM, DESeq2) for identifying true signals in compositional microbiota data using ...

Injectable Hydrogel with Rapid Coagulation, Low Swelling, and High Burst Pressure Tolerance Properties for Long‐Term Management of Bleeding Wound

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An injectable PACmC hydrogel with “rigid island‐flexible chain” architecture is developed, featuring low swelling (49.2% within 7 d), strong wet adhesion (46.5 kPa), and high burst pressure (701 mm Hg), which can achieve rapid hemostasis and long‐term sealing in rabbit and porcine models of hepatic and splenic hemorrhage.
