Fecal transplants correlated to distal symmetric polyneuropathy symptoms

Research led by the People’s Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China, has found a connection between gut microbiota and distal symmetric polyneuropathy. In a paper, “Gut microbiota modulate distal symmetric polyneuropathy in patients with diabetes,” published in Cell Metabolism, the team finds a potential causal role of the gut microbiota in distal symmetric polyneuropathy symptoms.
