Metagenomics Analysis Reveals Unique Gut Microbiota Signature of Slow-Transit Constipation
3 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Altered gut microbiota may play a role in slow-transit constipation (STC). We conducted a study of gut microbiota composition and functionality in STC using metagenomic analyses. METHODS: We assembled a clinical cohort of 24 patients with STC physiology age- and sex-matched to 24 controls. We performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing followed by prediction of metabolite composition from functional...
