Brain Behav Immun: Intestinal microbes start from the baby

The gut microbiota seems to play an important role in human health and disease.

The study recruited 63 newborns (mean age 25 days, median age 24 days, age range 9-56 days), male:female = 37:26.

The composition of the intestinal microflora is related to the individual variability of brain network connectivity, and feedback mediates individual differences in infants' behavioral temperament, especially negative emotions .

(A) A theoretical mediation model, in which gut microbial diversity indirectly affects behavioral temperament through its influence on the functional connectivity of the brain, (B) shows the corresponding statistical values ​​of the pathways outlined in the mediation model.

The gut microbiota is an important biological factor that needs to be considered when studying human development and health.
