Loss of Symbiotic Gut Bacteria in Children at Diagnosis of Food Protein Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome

Key Points

• This research investigates the relationship between gut bacteria and food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) in children.
• Analyzed gut microbiota composition in children diagnosed with FPIES.
• Measured abundance of specific bacterial groups including Bifidobacterium and Verrucomicrobiota.
• Children with FPIES showed significantly reduced levels of Bifidobacterium.
• There was a noticeable decrease in Verrucomicrobiota abundance compared to healthy children.
