Gut microbiota dysbiosis in the inflammatory pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy
This graphical abstract illustrates how gut dysbiosis drives diabetic retinopathy through the gut‐retina axis, a process unfolding in three interconnected stages. First, in the gut, a decrease in beneficial bacteria and an increase in pro‐inflammatory taxa compromise the intestinal barrier, causing a “leaky gut” that allows LPS to translocate into the ...

Periodontal homeostasis is maintained by coordinated interactions between the oral microbiome and host. Dysbiosis disrupts this ecological balance and contributes to periodontal disease, whereas multi‐omics, artificial intelligence, and microbiome‐based interventions provide emerging opportunities for precision diagnosis, ecological restoration, and ...

Single‐target contamination modeling in pathogen metagenomic sequencing via simple linear regression
Abstract A simple linear regression framework was developed to quantify contamination in pathogen metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS). The model was trained on simulated contamination samples generated by spiking HeLa cell backgrounds (1 × 105 cells/mL) with gradient concentrations of Streptococcus pneumoniae positive standards (5.6 × 106 ...

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the possible association between adenotonsillar hypertrophy (ATH) and herpesviral infections in children, and to examine correlations between specific viral detection and clinical characteristics. Methods We enrolled 43 children aged 3–14 years with ATH (mean age 76.56 ± 25.65 months; 31 boys).
