Exploring the associations of gut microbiota with inflammatory and the early hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage: from change to potential therapeutic objectives

Our exploration indicated that individuals with emICH, especially those with HE, demonstrate notably different host-microbe interactions when compared to healthy individuals. We deduced that emICH could rapidly trigger the dysbiosis of intestinal flora, and the disturbed microbiota could, in turn, exacerbate inflammatory response and increase the risk of hematoma expansion. Our comprehensive research revealed the potential of intestinal flora as a potent diagnostic tool, emphasizing its significance as a preventive target for HE.
