Background: Recent research highlights the potential role of sex-specific variations in cardiovascular disease. The gut microbiome has been shown to differ between sexes patients with risk factors. Objectives: main objective this study is analyze differences women and men relationship microbiota measures arterial stiffness. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional Spain, selecting 180 subjects (122 women, 58 men) aged 45 74. Subjects stiffness were identified by presence at least one following: carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) above 12 mm/s, cardio–ankle vascular index (CAVI) nine, or brachial–ankle (ba-PWV) 17.5 m/s. All other cases considered without composition fecal samples was determined 16S rRNA sequencing. Results: found that have more diverse than (Shannon, p < 0.05).

The gut microbiota plays a potential role in the pathophysiology of depression through gut-brain axis. This cross-sectional study 400 participants from PREDIMED-Plus investigates interplay between and using multi-omics approach. Depression was defined as antidepressant use or high Beck Inventory-II scores. Gut characterized by 16S rRNA sequencing, faecal metabolites were analysed via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Participants with exhibited significant differences microbial composition metabolic profiles. Differentially abundant taxa included Acidaminococcus, Christensenellaceae R-7 group, Megasphaera, among others. Metabolomic analysis revealed 15 significantly altered metabolites, primarily lipids, organic acids, benzenoids, some which correlated features. highlights depression, paving way for future research to determine whether influences reflects changes associated depression.

The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract harbors a diverse and dynamic community of microorganisms known as the gut microbiome, which plays fundamental role in maintaining cardiovascular health. It explores intricate interplay between microbiota, GI health, diseases (CVDs). discusses essential roles microbiome energy metabolism, nutrient absorption, immune regulation, barrier integrity. Dysbiosis, characterized by an imbalance microbiota composition, has been linked to various conditions, including inflammatory bowel (IBD) irritable syndrome (IBS), well CVDs such hypertension, atherosclerosis, heart failure. Therapeutic strategies targeting probiotics, prebiotics, fecal transplantation (FMT), precision nutrition, offer promising avenues for managing diseases. Recent research brought attention significance CVDs, highlighting sex-specific variations, microbial metabolites' impact, potential therapeutic interventions. Challenges research, sample size limitations methodological variability, are addressed, along with opportunities innovation, multi-omics integration personalized medicine guided data. By addressing these challenges leveraging opportunities, can revolutionize healthcare, ushering new era microbiome-informed medicine. This comprehensive analysis offers valuable perspectives into relationship diseases, paving way future clinical applications this burgeoning field.

This study aimed to investigate this relationship reveal effect GM cells on risk developing CHD using mediated Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods First, we searched for data related GM, through published genome-wide association (GWAS).
