Circulating Immune Cell Phenotypes are Associated with Socioeconomic Status and Severity of Environmental Enteropathy Among Zambian Adults

2026-08-14

Abstract excerpt

Environmental enteropathy (EE) is a chronic, subclinical disorder of the small intestine common in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where access to sanitation and exposure to enteric pathogens vary greatly by socioeconomic status (SES). Systemic immune cell activation by enteric microbial exposure is a suspected but poorly characterized driver of EE severity. We hypothesised that adults from Low-SES commu...
