Antibiotics show a clinical benefit whenused for the treatment of pouchitis. The downsidesof antibiotic treatment, especially with recurrent orprolonged courses such as used in inflammatory boweldisease, are significant side effects that often causeintolerance to treatment, Clostridium dificile infection,...

Human infections caused by cestodes, or tapeworms, may occur within the lumen of the bowel, where adult cestodes attach themselves to the host intestine (Box 1). Alternatively, human infection may be the result of dissemination of cestodes from the bowel to involve extraintestinal sites, often ...
Gut dysbiosis can lead to IBS, leaky gut syndrome, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), and metabolic disorders like obesity and diabetes. 2. Increased Risk of C. Difficile Infection A common but severe side effect of antibiotic use is the overgrowth of Clostridium difficile (C. diff), a harmfu...
However, antibiotic concentrations in the bowel are generally higher; for instance, a concentration of cefixime of 237–912μg/g in the feces has been observed in patients, whereas its breakpoint is much lower than 1 mg/L [16]. The in vitro results of this study suggest that based on ...

In spite of this evidence, it is challenging to separate the impact of maternal antibiotic exposure on the infant gut microbiota from the impact of the indications for IAP, such as cesarean delivery or GBS infection, in observational studies. One RCT tested the impact of IAP for cesarean sectio...
in the presence of inflammatory bowel disease, the oral pathogenic bacteria Klebsiella and Enterobacter proliferate abnormally and colonize the gut, aggravating gut inflammation.15Therefore, we hypothesized that systemic inflammation caused by experimental periodontitis and ectopic colonization of the oral micro...
When growing for competitive infection, strains were grown in a hypoxia chamber with 0.5% of oxygen at 37°C in LB broth. Method Details Human Subjects Subjects with symptoms of IBS were classified into three subtypes by predominant stool pattern: IBS with diarrhea (IBS-D), IBS with ...
