Introduction Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is the most common mental health to develop following exposure trauma. Studies have reported conflicting results regarding changes in immune biomarkers and alterations abundance of bacterial taxa microbial diversity patients with PTSD. Aim The purpose this meta-analysis summarize existing studies examining gut microbiota characteristics Methods Relevant were systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, Embase, published English between January 1, 1960, December 2023. outcomes included (gut part) (immune part). Results a total 15 studies, 9 focusing on inflammatory 6 composition No differences observed groups for all (P≥0.05). Two six found that people PTSD had less alpha diversity. However, overall Standardized Mean Difference (SMD) Shannon Diversity Index was not significant (SMD 0.27, 95% CI -0.62–0.609, p = 0.110). Regarding abundance, two decrease Lachnospiraceae bacteria observed. Conclusion This provides comprehensive overview PTSD, suggesting potential associations dysregulation. Future research should address study limitations, explore causal relationships, consider additional factors influencing function individuals Systematic review registration https://www.crd.york.ac.uk , identifier CRD42023476590.

Moderated regression impact displacement status on disability-post-traumatic relationship.Different predicted (PTSSs) varying extents, overall score significantly associated PTSSs. This relationship was not moderated status. Consistent previous research, females reported higher stress.In study general time conflict, more severe were greater Psychiatrists related professionals should consider pre-existing as factor for conflict-related
