Comparison of gut viral communities between autism spectrum disorder and healthy children
This study revealed that alpha diversity was reduced in children with ASD, and different compositions in gut viral communities were observed between ASD patients and healthy controls. Changes in viral diversity and composition deepen our understanding of the differences in the gut viral communities between ASD and healthy children, and also provides a perspective for further exploration of viruses related to ASD children.
