Abstract Objective A single oral dose of azithromycin (AZM) given during labor to women planning a vaginal delivery reduced maternal infections including sepsis, with a stronger effect in sub‐Saharan Africa than South Asia. Since maternal infection contributes to labor dysfunction and postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), we evaluated the effect of AZM on the ...

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous inflammatory condition. Dysbiosis is commonly observed. This study identified distinct sinonasal microbial communities in CRSwNP patients and explored their clinical and pathological associations. Two distinct microbial communities were identified: community type 1 (CT1), dominated by

The “efficacy paradox” of phytochemicals, low bioavailability yet significant health benefits, is associated with gut microbiota, which biotransforms dietary precursors into bioactive metabolites, enabling systemic effects. Thus, health outcomes of diet depend not just on intake “the rainbow”, but on gut microbial metabolism, redefining “you are what ...

Two stable gut microbiome guilds predict liver tumor class and treatment responses
Gut microbiome alterations are linked to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet taxon‐based biomarkers often lack reproducibility. Using shotgun metagenomics from 120 resectable HCC (MT) and 76 benign hepatic tumor controls (BT), we reconstructed a stable interaction‐based Two Competing Guilds model (HCC‐TCG) comprising 142 genomes organized into two ...
