years, the incidence of depression has been increasing as people have been under increasing pressure from all sides.
according to a national epidemiological survey in China, there are about 30 million confirmed cases of depression in china. According to the World Health Organization, there are about 350 million people suffering from depression worldwide, and in a 2012 report entitled Depression: A Global Crisis, depression has become China's second-largest burden of disease and is expected to rise to the top of the world's burden by 2030.
Research on depression has never stopped, and it is known that intestinal microbiome disorders are associated with severe depression (MDD), but little is known about changes in enterovirus, microorganisms and fecal metabolites and their interactions in MDD.
On December 2, professor Wang Gang's team at Beijing Stable Hospital affiliated with Capital Medical University, in collaboration with Professor Xie Peng of Chongqing Medical University's First Hospital and Professor Hu Shaohua from Zhejiang University's First Hospital, conducted research that revealed the interaction mechanisms of different phages, bacteria and fecal metabolites in the MDD intestinal ecosystem, providing insights into the role of the entire intestinal ecosystem in the pathogenesis of MDD and helping to develop scientific MDD diagnostic methods.
