Effectiveness of a standardized skin care regimen to prevent atopic dermatitis in infants at risk for atopy: a randomized, pragmatic, parallel-group study. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 2022; 37:540-548.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been proposed that regular emollient application in early life could enhance skin barrier function and prevent atopic dermatitis (AD) especially in predisposed infants. This hypothesis was supported by evidence from exploratory and pilot trials showing protective effects in terms of reduced cumulative atopic dermatitis incidence with the use of daily emollient therapy starting immediately after birth. OBJECTIVES To investigate the effectiveness of a standardized skin care regimen for infants on the development of AD compared to not structured skin care regimen in infants with atopic predisposition. METHODS Prospective, parallel group, randomized, pragmatic, investigator-blinded intervention trial including 160 infants with 52 weeks intervention and 52 weeks follow up phase up to the age of two years. Infants were randomly assigned to receive a standardized skin care regimen including once daily leave-on product application (lipid content 21%) or skin care as preferred by the parents. RESULTS Using the intention to treat approach, the cumulative AD incidence was 10.6% after one year, and 19.5% after two years in the total sample. There were no statistical significant differences between intervention and control groups. Skin barrier parameters between the intervention and control groups were comparable. AD severity was higher and quality of life was more affected in the control group. CONCLUSIONS Regular emollient application during the first year of life does not prevent the development of atopic dermatitis. A standardized skin care regimen does not delay skin barrier development or causes side effects.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Sprachtherapeutisch-linguistische Fachkreise empfehlen die Anpassung einer von einem internationalen Konsortium empfohlenen Änderung der Nomenklatur für Sprachstörungen im Kindesalter, insbesondere für Sprachentwicklungsstörungen (SES), auch für den deutschsprachigen Raum.
Fragestellung
Ist eine solche Änderung in der Terminologie aus ärztlicher und psychologischer Sicht sinnvoll?
Material und Methode
Kritische Abwägung der Argumente für und gegen eine Nomenklaturänderung aus medizinischer und psychologischer Sicht eines Fachgesellschaften- und Leitliniengremiums.
Ergebnisse
Die ICD-10-GM (Internationale statistische Klassifikation der Krankheiten und verwandter Gesundheitsprobleme, 10. Revision, German Modification) und eine S2k-Leitlinie unterteilen SES in umschriebene SES (USES) und SES assoziiert mit anderen Erkrankungen (Komorbiditäten). Die USES- wie auch die künftige SES-Definition der ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision) fordern den Ausschluss von Sinnesbehinderungen, neurologischen Erkrankungen und einer bedeutsamen intellektuellen Einschränkung. Diese Definition erscheint weit genug, um leichtere nonverbale Einschränkungen einzuschließen, birgt nicht die Gefahr, Kindern Sprach- und weitere Therapien vorzuenthalten und erkennt das ICD(International Classification of Disease)-Kriterium, nach dem der Sprachentwicklungsstand eines Kindes bedeutsam unter der Altersnorm und unterhalb des seinem Intelligenzalter angemessenen Niveaus liegen soll, an. Die intendierte Ersetzung des Komorbiditäten-Begriffs durch verursachende Faktoren, Risikofaktoren und Begleiterscheinungen könnte die Unterlassung einer dezidierten medizinischen Differenzialdiagnostik bedeuten.
Schlussfolgerungen
Die vorgeschlagene Terminologie birgt die Gefahr, ätiologisch bedeutsame Klassifikationen und differenzialdiagnostische Grenzen zu verwischen und auf wertvolles ärztliches und psychologisches Fachwissen in Diagnostik und Therapie sprachlicher Störungen im Kindesalter zu verzichten.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does the administration of an oxytocin-receptor antagonist around time of embryo transfer in IVF impact the likelihood to achieve a clinical pregnancy?
Summary answer
Administration of oxytocin-receptor antagonists around embryo transfer increases the likelihood of clinical pregnancy achievement.
What is known already
Uterine contractions occurring around time of embryo transfer have been described as one possible mechanism of failure of implantation of an embryo in the context of in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Hence the utilization of oxytocin-receptor antagonists was evaluated in randomized clinical trials (RCT) as a therapeutic approach. The compound Atosiban was studied by most RCTs (summarized in Huang et al. 2017). Recently further studies have become available which also investigated the novel agents Barusiban and Nolasiban. This systematic review collates the evidence of all drugs functioning as oxytocin-receptor antagonists which have been investigated in RCTs on IVF treatment so far.
Study design, size, duration
Multiple literature databases were searched for randomized controlled studies comparing the outcome of IVF cycles with administration of an oxytocin-receptor antagonist in the time period before, during or after embryo transfer versus placebo or nil in IVF patients. Meta-analyses were performed using standard procedures in the software program RevMan v.5.4. All analyses were done per randomized patient, wherever feasible.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Eleven RCTs were identified and included in the meta-analysis. Seven utilized the agent Atosiban, one Barusiban and three Nolasiban. These drugs were administered either intravenously, subcutaneously or orally. The patient populations were heterogenous (fresh cycle, frozen-thawed cycle, endometriosis, implantation failure or general IVF-population) between trials. Only four studies reported live birth rates whereas all RCTs reported clinical pregnancy rate.
Main results and the role of chance
Administration of an oxytocin-receptor antagonist around embryo transfer increases the likelihood of live birth (relative risk: 1.1, 95% CI: 0.99-1.22, p = 0.06, I2=31%, four RCTs, n = 2,510). Accordingly, the ongoing pregnancy rate is increased (relative risk: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.03-1.26, p = 0.01, I2=18%, four RCTs, n = 2,510) as well as the clinical pregnancy rate (relative risk: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.13-1.51, p = 0.0002, I2=61%, eleven RCTs, n = 3,611) by administration of an oxytocin-receptor antagonist. The risk to suffer a miscarriage, however, is not influenced by an oxytocin-receptor antagonist administration (relative risk: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.72-1.12, p = 0.35, I2=0%, seven RCTs, n = 2,936). The risk of multiple pregnancy is not different between groups (relative risk: 1.05 95% CI: 0.81-1.36, p = 0.73, I2=5%, seven RCTs, n = 3,014) as is the risk for an ectopic pregnancy (relative risk: 0.88 95% CI: 0.43-1.8, p = 0.73, I2=0%, four RCTs, n = 2,714).
Limitations, reasons for caution
Methodological rigor is heterogenous between trials and some of the evidence is of poor quality. Evaluation of included studies is still ongoing and queries are pending. Additionally, there is heterogeneity between patient populations and definition of outcomes; only four RCTs report ongoing pregnancies and live births.
Wider implications of the findings
The administration of oxytocin-receptor antagonists around embryo transfer increases the pregnancy rate and may be a promising approach to enhance the likelihood to achieve a live birth per embryo transfer.

Union of the European Phoniatricians' position statement on the exit strategy of phoniatric and laryngological services: staying safe and getting back to normal after the peak of coronavirus disease 2019 (issued on 25th May 2020). J Laryngol Otol 2020; 134:661-664. [PMID: 32613918 PMCID: PMC7399138 DOI: 10.1017/s002221512000122x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 06/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The following position statement from the Union of the European Phoniatricians, updated on 25th May 2020 (superseding the previous statement issued on 21st April 2020), contains a series of recommendations for phoniatricians and ENT surgeons who provide and/or run voice, swallowing, speech and language, or paediatric audiology services. OBJECTIVES This material specifically aims to inform clinical practices in countries where clinics and operating theatres are reopening for elective work. It endeavours to present a current European view in relation to common procedures, many of which fall under the aegis of aerosol generating procedures. CONCLUSION As evidence continues to build, some of the recommended practices will undoubtedly evolve, but it is hoped that the updated position statement will offer clinicians precepts on safe clinical practice.

Abstract
Zinc is essential for the functioning of many enzymes and plant processes and the malting process. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can improve zinc (Zn) uptake in the important cereal crop barley (Hordeum vulgare) on Zn-deficient soils. Here we investigated the impacts of Zn fertilisation and AMF on the yield and grain quality of malting barley cultivars. Five barley genotypes were inoculated or not with the AMF Rhizophagus irregularis, and grown in pots either fertilised with Zn or not. Measurements of Zn nutrition and yield were made for all cultivars. Further analyses of grain biochemical composition, including starch, β-glucan and arabinoxylan contents, and analysis of ATR-MIR spectra were made in two contrasting cultivars. Mycorrhizal colonisation generally resulted in decreased biomass, but increased grain dimensions and mean grain weight. Barley grain yield and biochemical qualities were highly variable between cultivars, and the ATR-MIR spectra revealed grain compositional differences between cultivars and AMF treatments. Mycorrhizal fungi can affect barley grain Zn concentration and starch content, but grain biochemical traits including β-glucan and arabinoxylan contents were more conserved by the cultivar, and unaffected by AMF inoculation. The ATR-MIR spectra revealed that there are other grain characteristics affected by AMF that remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Digitalization is significantly changing the entire healthcare sector. Hospitals must act now in order to remain competitive. OBJECTIVE To assess which approaches exist for digitalization along the treatment chain and how digitalization can be strategically implemented. MATERIALS AND METHODS An analysis of relevant examples from consulting work and success stories from the specialist press is presented, as is a discussion of expert recommendations. RESULTS More than 90% of German hospitals are currently investing in digitalization. However, they often fail to understand that first and foremost, digitalization offers them the chance to successfully innovate their entire business model. Digital solutions can enhance quality of care, boost efficiency, and greatly improve attractiveness for the employees entrusted with these processes. CONCLUSION German hospitals should be doing much more to exploit the many digital opportunities that exist. They can do so by deciding where to act first in the treatment chain, prioritizing the underlying actions, and making the necessary funds available. Other key success factors include forming strategic partnerships with startups and "medtech" companies, and introducing an agile corporate culture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To give an overview on implant survival rates in patients with oral manifestations of systemic autoimmune (oral Lichen planus (oLp), Pemphigus (Pe)), muco-cutaneous (Epidermolysis bullosa (EB)), autoimmune multisystemic rheumatic diseases (Sjögren's syndrome (SjS), systemic Lupus erythematosus (sLE), or systemic Sclerosis (sSc)). MATERIAL AND METHODS Systematic literature review (PubMed/Medline, Embase) using MESH and search term combinations, published between 1980 and August 2018 in English language reporting on dental implant-prosthetic rehabilitation of patients with oLp, Pe, EB, SjS, sLE, sSc, study design, age, gender, follow-up period (≥ 12 months), implant survival rate. Implant-related weighed mean values of implant survival rate (wmSR) were calculated. RESULTS After a mean follow-up period (mfp) of 44.6 months, a wmSR of 98.3 % was calculated from data published for patients with oLp (100 patients with 302 implants). Data of 27 patients (152 implants) with EB revealed wmSR of 98.7 % following mfp of 32.6 months. For 71 patients (272 implants) with SjS, wmSR was 94.2 % following a mfp of 45.2 months, and for 6 patients (44 implants) with sSc, wmSR was 97.7 % after mfp of 37.5 months. One case report on one patient each with Pe (two implants) as well as sLE (6 implants) showed 100 % SR following at least 24 months. CONCLUSIONS Guidelines regarding implant treatment of patients with oLp, Pe, EB, SjS, sLE or sSc do not exist nor are contraindicating conditions defined. Implant survival rates of patients affected are comparable to those of healthy patients. For implant-prosthetic rehabilitation of patients with Pe and sLE no conclusions can be drawn due to lack of sufficient clinical data. Implant-prosthetic treatment guidelines regarding healthy patients should be strictly followed, but frequent recall is recommended in patients affected with oLp, SjS, EB, SSc, Pe or sLE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MS) and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) are highly prevalent in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2). The present study examined whether there is an independent association between SDB and MS in a sample of outpatients with DM2. METHODS MS was determined in 679 patients of the DIACORE-SDB substudy, a study of outpatients with DM2. According to the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) criteria, MS is defined by at least three of the following five criteria: waist circumference of >102 cm (men)/>88 cm (women), blood pressure of ≥130/85 mmHg, a fasting triglyceride level of >150 mg/dl, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) of <40 mg/dl (men)/<50 mg/dl (women), and a fasting glucose level of ≥110 mg/dl. The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was assessed with a 2-channel ambulatory monitoring device and used to define the severity of SDB (AHI < 15.0: no/mild SDB; AHI 15.0-29.9: moderate SDB; AHI ≥ 30.0: severe SDB). RESULTS 228 (34%) of the 679 participants (mean age 66 years, mean body mass index (BMI) 31.2 kg/m2, and mean AHI 14/hour) had SDB. MS was significantly more frequent in patients with more severe SDB (no/mild SDB vs. moderate SDB vs. severe SDB: 72% vs. 79% vs. 85%, respectively, p = 0.038). Logistic regression analysis adjusted for sex, age, obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2), and the HOMA index showed a significant association between the AHI and the presence of MS (OR (95%CI) = 1.039 (1.011; 1.068); p = 0.007). Further, male sex, obesity, and the HOMA index were significantly associated with MS. CONCLUSION SDB is significantly and independently associated with MS in outpatients with DM2.

Abstract
Cell walls are crucial for the integrity and function of all land plants and are of central importance in human health, livestock production, and as a source of renewable bioenergy. Many enzymes that mediate the biosynthesis of cell wall polysaccharides are encoded by members of the large cellulose synthase (CesA) gene superfamily. Here, we analyzed 29 sequenced genomes and 17 transcriptomes to revise the phylogeny of the CesA gene superfamily in angiosperms. Our results identify ancestral gene clusters that predate the monocot-eudicot divergence and reveal several novel evolutionary observations, including the expansion of the Poaceae-specific cellulose synthase-like CslF family to the graminids and restiids and the characterization of a previously unreported eudicot lineage, CslM, that forms a reciprocally monophyletic eudicot-monocot grouping with the CslJ clade. The CslM lineage is widely distributed in eudicots, and the CslJ clade, which was thought previously to be restricted to the Poales, is widely distributed in monocots. Our analyses show that some members of the CslJ lineage, but not the newly identified CslM genes, are capable of directing (1,3;1,4)-β-glucan biosynthesis, which, contrary to current dogma, is not restricted to Poaceae.

Abstract
The taxonomy of the genus Cricetulus has been controversial. The phylogenetic relationships both within the genus and among Cricetulus lineages and other genera were examined using a set of five nuclear and two mitochondrial genes. The results demonstrate that Cricetulus in its current treatment is a polyphyletic assemblage because the subgenus Urocricetus is phylogenetically unrelated to all other Cricetulus and is a distant sister group to Phodopus. The grey hamster (C. migratorius) proved to be closer to Cricetus and Allocricetulus than to Cricetulus proper, which includes C. barabensis C. sokolovi and C. longicaudatus. Based on these results Urocricetus is elevated to the rank of a full genus and a new genus Nothocricetulus gen.nov. is described for the grey hamster.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of various self-adhesive resin cements on the push-out bond strengths and nanoleakage expression at the luting interfaces of fiber posts immediately and after one year of aging. METHODS AND MATERIALS One hundred forty-four extracted human anterior teeth were endodontically treated. After post space preparation, fiber posts were luted using five commercially available self-adhesive resin (SAR) cements and a core build-up material applied with a self-etch adhesive (BF: Bifix SE/Rebilda Post, VOCO; CSA: Clearfil SA Cement/Rely X Fiber Post, 3M ESPE; RX: RelyX Unicem 2/Rely X Fiber Post, 3M ESPE; SPC: Speed Cem/FRC Postec, Ivoclar Vivadent; SMC: Smart Cem/X Post, Dentsply; RB: Rebilda DC-Futurabond/Rebilda Post; n=22). For each group, half of the specimens were subjected to thermocycling (TC) (5°C-55°C, 10,000 cycles) and stored humid for one year at 37°C. Push-out bond strength data of six slices (thickness 1 mm) per root and nanoleakage expression of representative specimens were evaluated after 24 hours (baseline) and after TC and storage for one year (aging), respectively. RESULTS Bond strength differed significantly among resin cements (p<0.0005) and the location inside the root canal (p<0.0005), but not by aging (p=0.390; repeated-measures analysis of variance). SMC (14.6±5.8 MPa) and RX (14.1±6.8 MPa) revealed significantly higher bond strength compared to BF (10.6±5.4 MPa) and RB (10.0±4.6 MPa) but differed not significantly from SPC (12.8±4.8) MPa; CSA (6.1±4.6 MPa) revealed significantly lower bond strength compared to all other investigated materials (p<0.05; Tukey Honestly Significantly Different). Qualitative nanoleakage analysis revealed more silver deposits at the interface in all groups after aging. For CSA, a large amount of silver deposits inside the cement was also observed at baseline and after aging. CONCLUSIONS Fiber post luting using SAR cements demonstrated reliable bond strengths. Product-specific differences and initial degradation effects could be demonstrated.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To test for colposcopic differences between CIN2+ and non CIN2+ lesions of the "major changes" of the RIO 2011 nomenclature of the International Federation of Cervical Pathology (IFCPC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective cohort analysis of colposcopic examinations of patients with histologically confirmed CIN2+ (n=99) and non CIN2+ (n=102) lesions during a four years period. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES leukoplakia, coarse mosaic and punctuation, dense acetowhitening, sharp boarders, ridge sign, atypical vessels. RESULTS Only coarse punctuation (P≤0.001; OR 9.64; 95% CI 2.15-43.13), coarse mosaic (P≤0.001; OR 4.00; 95% CI 1.83-8.73) and dense acetowhitening (P≤0.05; OR 1.86; 95% CI 1.06-3.26) occurred more frequently in CIN2+ lesions which were confirmed as predictors by a regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS Only coarse punctuation and coarse mosaic followed by dense acetowhitening as part of the "major changes" of the IFCPC Rio 2011 nomenclature achieve predictive values for CIN2+ lesions and should be therefore emphasized in colposcopy.

Abstract
Seeds from the myxospermous species Plantago ovata release a polysaccharide-rich mucilage upon contact with water. This seed coat derived mucilage is composed predominantly of heteroxylan (HX) and is utilized as a gluten-free dietary fiber supplement to promote human colorectal health. In this study, a gamma-irradiated P. ovata population was generated and screened using histological stains and Fourier Transform Mid Infrared (FTMIR) spectroscopy to identify putative mutants showing defects in seed coat mucilage HX composition and/or structure. FTMIR analysis of dry seed revealed variation in regions of the IR spectra previously linked to xylan structure in Secale cereale (rye). Subsequent absorbance ratio and PCA multivariate analysis identified 22 putative mutant families with differences in the HX IR fingerprint region. Many of these showed distinct changes in the amount and subtle changes in structure of HX after mucilage extrusion, while 20% of the putative HX mutants identified by FTMIR showed no difference in staining patterns of extruded mucilage compared to wild-type. Transcriptional screening analysis of two putative reduced xylan in mucilage (rxm) mutants, rxm1 and rxm3, revealed that changes in HX levels in rxm1 correlate with reduced transcription of known and novel genes associated with xylan synthesis, possibly indicative of specific co-regulatory units within the xylan biosynthetic pathway. These results confirm that FTMIR is a suitable method for identifying putative mutants with altered mucilage HX composition in P. ovata, and therefore forms a resource to identify novel genes involved in xylan biosynthesis.

Abstract
Super-resolution (SR) is a technique used in digital image processing to overcome the resolution limitation of imaging systems. In this process, a single high resolution image is reconstructed from multiple low resolution images. SR is commonly used for CCD and CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) sensor images, as well as for medical applications, e.g., magnetic resonance imaging. Here, we demonstrate that super-resolution can be applied with scanning light stimulation (LS) systems, which are common to obtain space-resolved electro-optical parameters of a sample. For our purposes, the Projection Onto Convex Sets (POCS) was chosen and modified to suit the needs of LS systems. To demonstrate the SR adaption, an Optical Beam Induced Current (OBIC) LS system was used. The POCS algorithm was optimized by means of OBIC short circuit current measurements on a multicrystalline solar cell, resulting in a mean square error reduction of up to 61% and improved image quality.

Short term effects of increasing dietary salt concentrations on urine composition in healthy cats. Vet J 2014; 201:401-5.

Abstract
High dietary salt (NaCl) concentrations are assumed to be beneficial in preventing the formation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) uroliths in cats, since increased water intake and urine volume have been observed subsequent to intake. In human beings, dietary NaCl restriction is recommended for the prevention of CaOx urolith formation, since high NaCl intake is associated with increased urinary Ca excretion. The aim of the present study was to clarify the role of dietary NaCl in the formation of CaOx uroliths in cats. Eight cats received four diets that differed in Na and Cl concentrations (0.38-1.43% Na and 0.56-2.52% Cl dry matter, DM). Each feeding period consisted of a 21 day adaptation period, followed by a 7 day sampling period for urine collection. Higher dietary NaCl concentrations were associated with increased urine volume and renal Na excretion. Urinary Ca concentration was constant, but renal Ca excretion increased from 0.62 to 1.05 mg/kg bodyweight (BW)/day with higher dietary NaCl concentrations (P ≤ 0.05). Urinary oxalate (Ox), citrate, P and K concentrations decreased when NaCl intake was high (P ≤ 0.05), and urinary pH was low in all groups (6.33-6.45; P > 0.05). Relative supersaturation of CaOx in the urine was unaffected by dietary NaCl concentrations. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated several beneficial effects of high dietary NaCl intake over a relatively short time period. In particular, urinary Ca concentration remained unchanged because of increased urine volume. Decreased urinary Ox concentrations might help to prevent the formation of CaOx uroliths, but this should be verified in future studies in diseased or predisposed cats.

Abstract
Pregnant gilts were fed the probiotic Enterococcus faecium NCIMB10415 (SF68) one month before birth of piglets. DNA extracts of sow faeces taken in weekly intervals as well as extracts from the intestine of their offspring during the suckling period at 12 and 26 days of life were analysed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and quantitative PCR. DGGE profiles of faecal bacterial communities from three out of six probiotic-fed sows were distinctly different from the control and other probiotic-fed sows at all time points after probiotic supplementation. The probiotic-fed sows and their offspring were therefore divided into non-responder (n=3) and responder (n=3) groups. The probiotic strain significantly increased faecal lactobacilli cell numbers in mother sows, which could be assigned to a significant increase of Lactobacillus amylovorus and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Responding sows showed a more pronounced increase than non-responding sows. Similarly, suckling piglets from non-responding and responding sows showed numeric and significant differences for different bacterial groups and species. DGGE profiles of suckling piglets from responding sows also grouped more closely than profiles from control animals. Non-metric multiscaling of suckling piglets showed the same tendency for suckling piglets, but not for post-weaning piglets. This study showed that the probiotic E. faecium strain modified the faecal microbiota of sows. This modification is carried over to their offspring, but leads to changes that do not mirror the quantitative composition in the mother sow. Individual variations in the bacterial composition of mother sows before probiotic feed intake may influence the impact of a probiotic in sows and their offspring.

Abstract
It was recently shown that variations in the ratio of dietary fermentable carbohydrates (fCHO) and fermentable protein (fCP) differentially affect large intestinal microbial ecology and the mucosal response. Here we investigated the use of mass spectrometry to profile changes in metabolite composition in colon and urine associated with variation in dietary fCHO and fCP composition and mucosal physiology. Thirty-two weaned piglets were fed 4 diets in a 2 × 2 factorial design with low fCP and low fCHO, low fCP and high fCHO, high fCP and low fCHO, and high fCP and high fCHO. After 21 to 23 d, all pigs were euthanized and colon digesta and urine metabolite profiles were obtained by mass spectrometry. Analysis of mass spectra by partial least squares approach indicated a clustering of both colonic and urinary profiles for each pig by feeding group. Metabolite identification and annotation using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) metabolic pathways revealed increased abundance of metabolites associated with arachidonic acid metabolism in colon of pigs fed a high concentration of fCP irrespective of dietary fCHO. Urinary metabolites did not show as clear patterns. Mass spectrometry can effectively differentiate metabolite profiles in colon contents and urine associated with changes in dietary composition. Whether metabolite profiling is an effective tool to identify specific metabolites (biomarkers) or metabolite profiles associated with gut function and integrity needs further elucidation.
