The characteristics of gut microbiome changes in tuberculosis patients and latent tuberculosis infection in Xinjiang

Key Points

Diversity and composition of gut microbiota vary significantly in tuberculosis patients and those with latent tuberculosis, highlighting microbial shifts.
Metabolic pathways associated with gut microbiota were analyzed, revealing potential links to tuberculosis states.
The analysis focused on the Han population in Xinjiang, showing specific microbial species composition profiles in tuberculosis.
These findings may provide a theoretical basis for targeted prevention strategies against tuberculosis in the region.

Abstract

This study clarified the diversity, microbial species composition profiles, and metabolic pathways of the gut microbiota in the Han population with different TB states in the Xinjiang region of China. These findings may provide a certain theoretical basis and reference for the precise prevention and control of TB in Xinjiang.
