An overview of Clostridioides difficile and faecal microbiota transplant: implications for nursing practice - PubMed
Clostridioides difficile bacteria can cause excessive diarrhoea in patients, leading to further complications, such as severe dehydration and sepsis. Although C.difficile bacteria tend to reside harmlessly in many people's bowels, prolonged antibiotic use can alter the bacterial balanc …
‘Crapsules’ full of freeze-dried faeces could treat liver disease
The UK is conducting a large-scale trial into the use of faecal transplants to treat liver disease after a successful pilot of the “crapsules” suggested they mi
'Poo transplants' could provide hope for thousands with liver disease
A pill filled with poo dubbed a 'crapsule' to boost gut health and prevent serious infections is starting a major trial of 300 people in 16 centres across the UK.
These findings suggested that imbalanced Th17/Treg cells decreased chicken growth performance, while FMT-reshaped gut microbiota, i.e., higher Lactobacilli, increased chicken growth performance by balancing Th17/Treg cells. Video Abstract.

Effects of gut microbiota on neurodegenerative diseases - PubMed
A progressive degradation of the brain's structure and function, which results in a reduction in cognitive and motor skills, characterizes neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Huntington's disease (HD). …
Gut microbiota changes associated with Clostridioides difficile infection and its various treatment strategies - PubMed
Human gut microbiota are critical to both the development of and recovery from Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). Antibiotics are the mainstay of CDI treatment, yet inherently cause further imbalances in the gut microbiota, termed dysbiosis, complicating recovery. A variety of microbio …
Safety and Efficacy of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease in the Pediatric Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis - PubMed
Background and Aims: Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been increasingly studied in the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) population. However, most studies have focused on the adult population, and the safety and efficacy of FMT in a pediatric population is less well understood. This …
Faecal Microbiota transplantation affects liver DNA methylation in Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a multi-omics approach - PubMed
