Background and purpose: Increasing prevalence of obesity over the past few decades constitutes a global health challenge. Recent evidence suggests that gut microbiota may contribute to weight control. So, the present study aimed at comparing the frequency of different bacteria in gut microbiota between obese and normal weight people in Iran. Materials and methods: Thirty normal weight (BMI of ...

[ 9 ] - The Microbiome in Precision Medicine: A New Approach to Cancer Treatment

Precision medicine is a new approach in medical sciences aimed at individualizing treatment, reducing adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and decreasing health care costs. Precision medicine is also able to maintain the health of individuals by regulating their composition of microorganisms (microbiota) using specific methods. Microbiota is the total stock of microbial species in different organs of...

[ 10 ] - The Role of Probiotics in Management of Infected Diabetic Foot Ulcers

 Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the common reasons for non-traumatic amputation of the lower limbs, which requires proper diagnosis, proper collection of specimens, careful selection of antibiotics, treatment of infection based on the disease condition, quick decision about whether or not surgery is necessary and other types of wound care. Probiotics are suggested as non-pathogenic microor...
