Characteristics of nasal and intestinal microbiota and effects of probiotics intervention in highly exposed people with PM2.5: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study
Abstract:Background: Extended exposure to high concentrations of PM2.5 changes the human microbiota profile, which in turn may increase morbidity and mortality due to respiratory system damage. A balanced microecosystem is crucial to human health, and certain health-related problems may be addressed by effective microecosystem regulation. Recent studies have confirmed that probiotics may reduce the incidence of respiratory diseases. However, few studies have investigated probiotic treatment outcomes in subjects exposed… Show more
