    • Gut microbiota composition during hospitalization is associated with 60-day mortality after severe COVID-19 

      Trøseid, Marius; Holter, Jan Cato; Holm, Kristian; Vestad, Beate; Sazonova, Taisiia; Granerud, Beathe Kiland; Dyrhol-Riise, Anne Ma; Holten, Aleksander Rygh; Tonby, Kristian; Kildal, Anders Benjamin; Heggelund, Lars; Tveita, Anders Aune; Bøe, Simen; Müller, Karl Erik; Jenum, Synne; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Ueland, Thor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-23)
      Background - Gut microbiota alterations have been reported in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, with reduced alpha diversity and altered microbiota composition related to respiratory failure. However, data regarding gut microbiota and mortality are scarce.<p> <p>Methods - Rectal swabs for gut microbiota analyses were collected within 48 h after hospital admission (baseline; n = 123) and three-month ...

    • Reduced gut microbial diversity in familial hypercholesterolemia with no effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids intervention–a pilot trial 

      Larsen, Christopher Storm; Hande, Liv Nesse; Kummen, Martin; Thunhaug, Hilde; Vestad, Beate; Hansen, Simen Hyll; Hovland, Anders Wilhelm; Trøseid, Marius; Lappegård, Knut Tore; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-01)
      Individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) undergo an aggressive treatment with cholesterollowering drugs to prevent coronary heart disease. Recent evidence suggests an interplay between the gut microbiota, blood lipid levels and lipid-lowering drugs, but this has yet to be studied in individuals with FH. The objective of the study was to characterize the gut microbiota of individuals ...

    • Rosuvastatin alters the genetic composition of the human gut microbiome 

      Kummen, Martin; Solberg, Ole Geir; Larsen, Christopher Storm; Holm, Kristian; Ragnarsson, Asgrimur; Trøseid, Marius; Vestad, Beate; Skårdal, Rita; Yndestad, Arne; Ueland, Thor; Svardal, Asbjørn M.; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Seljeflot, Ingebjørg; Gullestad, Lars; Karlsen, Tom Hemming; Aaberge, Lars; Aukrust, Pål; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-25)
      The gut microbiome contributes to the variation of blood lipid levels, and secondary bile acids are associated with the effect of statins. Yet, our knowledge of how statins, one of our most common drug groups, affect the human microbiome is scarce. We aimed to characterize the effect of rosuvastatin on gut microbiome composition and inferred genetic content in stool samples from a randomized controlled ...
