Identifying the location-dependent adipose tissue bacterial DNA signatures in obese patients that predict body weight loss

Gut Microbes
Recent sets of evidence have described profiles of 16S rDNA sequences in host tissues, notably in fat pads that are significantly overrepresented and can serve as signatures of metabolic disease. However, these recent and original observations need to be

Long‐Term Efficacy of Immunotherapy in Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy—A 10‐Year Follow Up Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy (AAG) is a rare but potentially treatable cause of severe autonomic failure. Evidence guiding long‐term immunotherapy, treatment sequencing, and residual autonomic impairment is limited. We evaluated long‐term treatment response, residual autonomic dysfunction, and relapse patterns in patients with
