HIV-associated gut dysbiosis is independent of sexual practice and correlates with noncommunicable diseases

The role of sexual practice in HIV-associated gut microbiota remains poorly understood. Here, in a cohort of chronically treated HIV-infected people, the authors show microbiome signatures to be independent of sex and sexual practice and that the extent of dysbiosis correlates with nadir CD4, inflam...

Description
Summary:The role of sexual practice in HIV-associated gut microbiota remains poorly understood. Here, in a cohort of chronically treated HIV-infected people, the authors show microbiome signatures to be independent of sex and sexual practice and that the extent of dysbiosis correlates with nadir CD4, inflammatory markers, and comorbidities.
