Gut Microbiota Signature in Heart Failure Defined From Profiling of 2 Independent Cohorts

Metabolic and inflammatory disturbances may play a role in the development and progression of chronic heart failure (HF), but the mechanisms are not completely understood. The potential role of the gut microbiota in HF remains elusive, and only small studies with diverse methods and results have bee...
