Abstract: The gut microbiome‐related metabolites betaine and trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) affect major health issues. In cirrhosis, betaine metabolism may be diminished because of impaired hepatic betaine homocysteine methyltransferase activity, whereas TMAO generation from trimethylamine may be… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13030528
Abstract: Among the barriers to accessing adequate treatment and high-level monitoring for malaria febrile patients is the lack of effective prognostic markers. Neopterin, which is a marker of monocyte/macrophage activation, was found have increased during severe… read more here.
