Have a nice weekend! Today in this Digest, we have a set of papers covering different aspects of the human microbiome in health and disease. For example, connections between gut microbiota and different clinical parameters in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, and another study showing a relationship between TMAO and heart damage.
