Metagenomic changes in response to antibiotic treatment in severe orthopedic trauma patients (2024)
Journal Article
Kouraki, A., Zheng, A. S., Miller, S., Kelly, A., Ashraf, W., Bazzani, D., Bonadiman, A., Tonidandel, G., Bolzan, M., Vijay, A., Nightingale, J., Menni, C., Ollivere, B. J., & Valdes, A. M. (2024). Metagenomic changes in response to antibiotic treatment in severe orthopedic trauma patients. iScience, 27(9), Article 110783. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isci.2024.110783

We investigated changes in microbiome composition and abundance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes post-antibiotic treatment in severe trauma patients. Shotgun sequencing revealed beta diversity (Bray-Curtis) differences between 16 hospitalized...

Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial (2024)
Journal Article
Kouraki, A., Nogal, A., Nocun, W., Louca, P., Vijay, A., Wong, K., Michelotti, G. A., Menni, C., & Valdes, A. M. (2024). Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial. Metabolites, 14(6), Article 311. https://doi.org/10.3390/metabo14060311

Metabolomics can uncover physiological responses to prebiotic fibre and omega-3 fatty acid supplements with known health benefits and identify response-specific metabolites. We profiled 534 stool and 799 serum metabolites in 64 healthy adults followi... Read More about Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial.
