Gut Microbiota Alterations in Hemodynamically Stable Acute Myocardial Infarction Linked to Cardiac and Cognitive Function
Gut dysbiosis has been implicated in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. However, the specific alterations in gut microbiota among patients with myocardial infarction (MI), compared with individuals harboring cardiovascular risk factors, remain unclear. Furthermore, the potential contribution of gut microbiota to cognitive impairment in MI patients has not been well investigated. This study aimed to characterize the gut microbiota composition in MI patients and evaluate its relationship with cognitive outcomes, providing insights into the gut-heart-brain axis.
