Correction to: Association Between Alternative Complement Pathway and Carotid Plaque and the Underlying Gut Microbial and Inflammatory Biomarkers: A Cohort Study

Key Points

• Carotid plaque shows significant association with inflammatory biomarkers and gut microbial factors.
• The study identified that elevated levels of certain biomarkers correlate with increased carotid plaque formations.
• Cohort study analysis utilized blood samples to assess inflammatory biomarker levels and microbial diversity.
• These findings may highlight the importance of gut health in managing cardiovascular risks and plaque development.
