Gut microbiota composition explains more variance in the host cardiometabolic risk than genetic ancestry

2018-08-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Cardiometabolic affections greatly contribute to the global burden of disease. The susceptibility to these conditions associates with the ancestral genetic composition and gut microbiota. However, studies explicitly testing associations between genetic ancestry and gut microbes are rare. We examined whether the ancestral genetic composition was associated with gut microbiota, and split apart t...
