Ethnicity Associations With Food Sensitization Are Mediated by Gut Microbiota Development in the First Year of Life
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Increasing evidence supports the role of early-life gut microbiota in developing atopic diseases, but ecological changes to gut microbiota during infancy in relation to food sensitization remain unclear. We aimed to characterize and associate these changes with the development of food sensitization in children.
