Necrotizing enterocolitis is preceded by increased gut bacterial replication, <i>Klebsiella</i> , and fimbriae-encoding bacteria that may stimulate TLR4 receptors

2019-02-22

Abstract excerpt

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating intestinal disease that occurs primarily in premature infants. We performed genome-resolved metagenomic analysis of 1,163 fecal samples from premature infants to identify microbial features predictive of NEC. Features considered include genes, bacterial strain types, eukaryotes, bacteriophages, plasmids and growth rates. A machine learning classifier found that samp...
