The Gut #Microbiome is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory arthritides & other health conditions

Gut dysbiosis is a broad term relating to an 'imbalance' of gut microbiota associated with an unhealthy outcome

I find this an interesting topic with several unknowns

"Gut inflammation is strongly associated with #Spondyloarthritis (SpA), as exemplified by the high prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the even higher occurrence of subclinical gut inflammation in patients with #SpA."

"Gut #Microbiome composition differs across regions and ethnicities, changes over time, and can be influenced by multiple factors, including, among others, diet, lifestyle, hormonal cycles, disease, comorbidity..."

There has been acknowledgement of gut dysbiosis in #RA too

➡️ Alterations in microbial flora occurs in preclinical & established #RheumatoidArthritis

And here in, 'Intestinal Dysbiosis and #Rheumatoid Arthritis'

This paper gives an excellent overview on the gut #Microbiome,

There is also emerging evidence which makes reference to the gut #Microbiome and degenerative diseases such as #Osteoarthritis

Though more research is needed. ImageImage
This paper explores the relationship between #Depression, skin #Psoriasis and the #GutMicrobiome

And what about ageing?

'Is inflammageing influenced by the #Microbiota in the aged gut? A systematic review'

The links seem vast when considering gut inflammation and the #Microbiome

It'll be fascinating watching this body of evidence develop and how clinical practice will subsequently change.

For example, what role does #Exercise have to play? Image
This article poses some thoughts in relation to the role of #Exercise on the gut in older people with #Osteoarthritis

I'd love to hear from clinicians who are confidently discussing gut health with their patients, especially those in #Rheumatology

Rosenbaum's work was my first insight into this topic

'The #Microbiome: a Revolution in Treatment for Rheumatic Diseases?'
