Gut microbiota and their metabolites ameliorate acute and chronic colitis in mice via modulating Th17/Treg balance by Dongyue Li, Huiling Tao, Xin Tan, Hao Ling, Yue Lu, Huichao Zhang, Sok Theany, Hongyu Xu

“…However, given the characteristic alternating cycles of active and remission phases in UC, there remains a paucity of in-depth research regarding the optimal timing for FMT intervention. Concurrently, butyrate - a crucial microbial metabolite - ameliorates murine colitis through both direct and indirect mechanisms, while the therapeutic effectiveness of FMT in UC correlates closely with intestinal butyrate concentration.MethodsThis study established acute and chronic UC murine models and employed FMT and butyrate interventions to monitor dynamic alterations in gut microbiota and lymphocyte subsets. …”

Values of lymphocyte-related ratios in predicting the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis based on different etiologies by Yongyu Li, Keyang Chen, Lu Wang, Linhu Zhao, Chunyan Lei, Yu Gu, Xiaoyan Zhu, Qionghua Deng

“…BackgroundWhile neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) have been associated with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) outcomes, their differential predictive value across etiological subtypes (TOAST classification) in thrombolysis-treated patients remains underexplored.MethodsIn this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed 381 AIS patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis. …”
