营养不良儿童肠道菌群状况研究进展

Research advances in the relationship between childhood malnutrition and gut microbiota

摘要:

儿童营养不良是威胁全球儿童健康的重要疾病。肠道菌群状况与食物的消化、吸收以及肠道功能有着密切的关系，目前研究认为肠道菌群的改变在很大程度上影响着营养不良的发生发展。该文从肠道菌群与机体营养状况的相互关系、肠道菌群在不同类型营养不良中的变化及其对营养不良治疗及预防的影响等方面，将最近研究进展综述如下，从微生态角度深入对儿童营养不良的认识。

Abstract:

Objective Childhood malnutrition is an important disease threatening healthy growth of children worldwide. Gut microbiota has close links to food digestion, absorption and intestinal function. Current research considers that alterations in gut microbiota have been strongly implicated in childhood malnutrition. This review article addresses the latest understanding and evidence of interrelationship between gut microbiota and individual nutrition status, the changes of gut microbiota in different types of malnutrition, and the attribution of gut microbiota in the treatment and prognosis of malnutrition. It provides in depth understanding of childhood malnutrition from the perspective of microbiome.
