Insights into the blood, gut, and oral microbiomes in Chinese patients with myocardial infarction: a case-control study
This study demonstrates significant alterations in the blood, gut, and oral microbiome profiles of MI patients, identifying specific bacterial taxa strongly associated with key markers of myocardial infarction. The unique microbial patterns detected in the blood provide compelling evidence for the existence of a stable core blood microbiome, highlighting its importance as a key contributor to cardiovascular health and disease progression.
