Is structural robustness of the gut mucosal microbiota associated with Crohn 's disease remission after surgery?
ICR modifies the gut microbiome. Remission after 6 months was associated with homogenous bacterial distribution around the anastomosis. Community structure and bacterial networks highlight target species, including Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Ruminococcus gnavus, which may allow precise modulations of the overall microbial ecosystem towards remission pattern.
The higher the level of IOP, the smaller was the amount of neural rim tissue in the optic disc for both black and white Americans. However, the relationship between IOP and neural rim area was different in whites and blacks.
