Journal Article
Jiang, T., Liu, K., Li, J., Zhang, Y., Zhang, W., Doherty, M., …Zeng, C. (2023). Gut-joint axis in knee synovitis: gut fungal dysbiosis and altered fungi–bacteria correlation network identified in a community-based study. RMD Open, 9(4), Article e003529. https://doi.org/10.1136/rmdopen-2023-003529

Objectives: Knee synovitis is a highly prevalent and potentially curable condition for knee pain; however, its pathogenesis remains unclear. We sought to assess the associations of the gut fungal microbiota and the fungi–bacteria correlation network...
