Researchers identified significant differences in gut microbial composition between gestational diabetes and healthy ...

Genera from the Firmicutes phylum thrive particularly in COPD airways. Smoking has different effects on diversity and taxonomic abundance in patients with COPD compared with controls. COPD severity ...

Ludwig, W., Schleifer, KH. and Whitman, W.B. (2009) Revised road map to the phylum Firmicutes. In De Vos, P., et al. Eds., Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, 2nd Edition, The Firmicutes, ...

Researchers from the Department of Child Rehabilitation, China, have found significant differences in the gut microbiota of children who go to bed early compared to those who stay up late. The study ...

In the first 80 centimeters of soil, the researchers largely found microbes of the Firmicutes phylum, a category of gram-positive bacteria.

Moreover, reduced levels of the Bacteroidetes phylum and increased levels of Firmicutes phylum were observed in obese individuals as compared to normal-weight people.

Most species isolated in human beings (93·5%) were members of four bacterial phyla: Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. A third (31·1%) of species isolated from human beings ...

Lactobacillaceae of the Firmicutes phylum are well-known for their role in digesting carbohydrates, as well as their probiotic properties (Rossi et al., 2016).

Unhealthy modern diets could lead to maternal dysbiosis and subsequently reduce the presence of butyrate-producing bacteria like Firmicutes phylum.

For protective species, 11 out of 14 were from the Firmicutes phylum, two were from Actinobacteria, and one was from Bacteroidetes (Prevotella 9).

In particular, common bacteria from the Firmicutes phylum were most strongly associated with increased fever response. These bacteria are common, variable across patients, and are known to produce ...

The presence of bacteria of the Firmicutes phylum, also known as Bacillota, in a patient's gut microbiome was found to be the most strongly associated with increased fever response and therefore ...
