Abstract:Background and AimThe gut microbiome of patients with clinically stable ulcerative colitis (UC) differs from that of healthy individuals depending on the state of the colonic mucosa, especially with or without advanced scarring; however, the underlying mechanism is unclear. Therefore, this study examined the gut microbiome compositional signatures in patients with significant mucosal scarring and UC‐related symptoms.MethodsStool samples for gut microbiome analysis were prospectively collected from 57 patients … Show more
