Overview

Observational analysis shows gut microbiota diversity evolves in infants, while highlighting ART and delivery mode impacts.

Key Points

  • The study shows increasing gut microbiota diversity over the first six months of life, linked with delivery mode.
  • Infants born by cesarean section had lower Bacteroidetes abundance, indicating differences in microbiota development.
  • ART infants had higher alpha diversity indexes at 42 days, implying assisted reproductive technologies affect gut health.
  • Metagenomic sequencing was used to assess gut microbiota, revealing significant trends in the first six months.
