Urinary Fungal Microbiome and Associations With Overactive Bladder, Antibiotics and Therapy Response
The study provides new insights into the fungal composition of urine in the physiological state as well as in the context of OAB. Fungi appear to play a central role in interkingdom fungal-bacterial interaction networks. The findings pave the way for future investigations to assess the role of urinary fungi in urologic health and disease, and its modulation to augment therapy.
