We read with great interest the article, "Duration of Food Protein-Induced Allergic Proctocolitis (FPIAP) and Role Intestinal Microbiota," which provides valuable insights into natural history microbiota-related aspects FPIAP.1 The findings that FPIAP duration may be shorter than traditionally perceived symptomatic infants exhibit microbiota profiles dominated by Klebsiella Shigella significantly enhance our understanding this condition. Nonetheless, we believe several warrant further exploration clarification. First, while commend authors for their insightful in infants, would like to emphasize a potential limitation specifically related breastfed was not explicitly addressed study.

Human milk contains an abundance of nutrients which benefit the development and growth infants. However, infant formula has to be used when breastfeeding is not possible. The large differences between human in prebiotics lead suboptimal intestinal health formula-fed This functional deficit may overcome through other dietary polysaccharides that have been characterized. aim this review was summarize potential applications as prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics better mimic functionality for gut health. Previous studies demonstrated influences on microbiota, SCFA production, immune system development. Compared synbiotics showed application shaping prevention pathogen infections, system.

Breast milk represents the gold standard for neonatal nutrition, especially preterm and term infants with a low birthweight. This awareness is based not only on nutritional properties of human milk, which specifically designed growth humans but also breast milk’s non-nutritional properties, such as protection against infection. In fact, should be considered heterogeneous ecosystem, including wide range cells in addition to those involved immune function; factors, vascular endothelial factor; multiple noncoding microRNAs; cells; epithelial multipotent mesenchymal stem cells. recent identification pool progenitor driving force behind growing research aimed at identifying nature these stem/progenitor their sources.

Background The human gut microbiome develops rapidly during infancy, a key window of development coinciding with the maturation adaptive immune system. However, little is known about growth dynamics over first few months life and whether there are any generalizable patterns across populations. We performed metagenomic sequencing on stool samples (n = 94) from cohort infants 15) at monthly intervals in 6 life, augmenting our dataset seven published studies for total 4,441 metagenomes 1,162 infants.

Background In recent years, the prevalence of childhood obesity has escalated alarmingly, posing significant threats to physical and mental well-being children, with an elevated likelihood persisting into adulthood. Notably, investigations have uncovered a profound association between intestinal microbiota, crucial component internal milieu, obesity. Disturbances in microbiota their by-products are now understood be profoundly intertwined evolutionary pathway Bibliometric analysis offers deep understanding current research landscape, so we apply it review emerging trends patterns gut microbiota. Materials methods We conducted rigorous extensive search Web Science (WoS) Core Collection database, spanning years from 1900 2023, analyze scholarly articles pertaining Utilizing VOSviewer, CiteSpace, R package “bibliometrix,” online bibliometric platform ( https://bibliometric.com/ ), delved intricate details hotspots, academic collaborations, within this domain.

Probiotics are “live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amount, confer health benefits on the host”. They can be found certain foods like yogurt and kefir dietary supplements. The introduction of bacterial derivatives has not only contributed to disease control but also exhibited promising outcomes, such as improved survival rates, immune enhancement, growth promotion effects. It is interesting note that efficacy probiotics goes beyond viability bacteria, giving rise concepts paraprobiotics, non-viable forms probiotics, postbiotics. Paraprobiotics offer various children with intestinal dysbiosis, contributing digestive health, function, overall well-being. In this review, potential these therapeutic applications alternatives pharmacological agents for treating pediatric dysbiosis will thoroughly evaluated. This includes an analysis their efficacy, safety, long-term benefits, ability restore gut microbiota balance, improve enhance reduce inflammation. aim determine if non-pharmacological interventions effectively safely manage children, reducing need conventional medications side
