Distinct gut microbiome signatures and clinical associations across ischemic stroke subtypes

Key Points

• Distinct gut microbiome signatures correlate with various ischemic stroke subtypes, showcasing unique bacterial diversity.
• A significant association was found between specific microbial communities and stroke severity in diverse clinical contexts.
• The approach involved metabolomics to profile gut microbiome variations across different ischemic stroke presentations.
• This highlights the need for further investigation into gut microbiome's role in stroke diagnostics and therapeutics.
