Abstract
Triticale is currently used in poultry nutrition as an alternative energy source to conventional cereals like maize and wheat. Many articles emphasized controversial results regarding its inclusion levels on broiler growth parameters. This study aimed to evaluate the overall impact of triticale and its appropriate incorporation level on the growth performance of broiler chickens via a meta-analysis. In February and April 2022, papers investigating the influence of triticale on broiler's live body weight (LBW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were identified on Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct. Based on the eligibility criteria of PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, 19 articles were recorded and divided into 62 experiments according to the inclusion percentages of triticale. Using the random-effects models, Hedges' g effect size of dietary triticale treatment was calculated to determine the standardized means difference (SMD) at a 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI). The triticale inclusion in the diet increased the broiler's BWG, FI, and FCR but decreased the broiler's LBW. The meta-regression showed that there was a positive correlation between the inclusion of triticale from 0 to 20 % and the broiler's LBW and FI. Although the funnel plot and the Egger linear test suggested significant publication bias for the LBW factor, this study remains valuable for understanding the impact of triticale on broiler growth parameters. In conclusion, the inclusion of triticale up to 20 % in broiler diets could be recommended to obtain optimal performance.

Abstract
Abstract
Undoubtedly, the discovery of antibiotics was one of the greatest milestones in the treatment of human and animal diseases. Due to their over-use mainly as antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) in livestock farming, antimicrobial resistance has been reported with increasing intensity, especially in the last decades. In order to reduce the scale of this phenomenon, initially in the Scandinavian countries and then throughout the entire European Union, a total ban on the use of AGP was introduced, moreover, a significant limitation in the use of these feed additives is now observed almost all over the world. The withdrawal of AGP from widespread use has prompted investigators to search for alternative strategies to maintain and stabilize the composition of the gut microbiota. These strategies include substances that are used in an attempt to stimulate the growth and activity of symbiotic bacteria living in the digestive tract of animals, as well as living microorganisms capable of colonizing the host’s gastrointestinal tract, which can positively affect the composition of the intestinal microbiota by exerting a number of pro-health effects, i.e., prebiotics and probiotics, respectively. In this review we also focused on plants/herbs derived products that are collectively known as phytobiotic.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is characterized as a chronic and recurrent inflammatory disease whose pathogenesis is still elusive. The gut microbiota exerts important and diverse effects on host physiology through maintaining immune balance and generating health-benefiting metabolites. Many studies have demonstrated that IBD is associated with disturbances in the composition and function of the gut microbiota. Both the abundance and diversity of gut microbiota are dramatically decreased in IBD patients. Furthermore, some particular classes of microbiota-derived metabolites, principally short-chain fatty acids, tryptophan, and its metabolites, and bile acids have also been implicated in the pathogenesis of IBD. In this review, we aim to define the disturbance of gut microbiota and the key classes of microbiota-derived metabolites in IBD pathogenesis. In addition, we also focus on scientific evidence on probiotics, not only on the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of probiotics on IBD but also the challenges it faces in safe and appropriate application.
