- 12 studies reviewed for gut microbiome changes in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). 2.
- Inconsistent findings suggest no consistent pattern of gut microbiome changes in ITP. 3.
- Potential influences on ITP include microbial metabolites such as SCFAs and TMAO.
- ITP treatments, like corticosteroids, can alter the gut microbiome.
- Larger, standardized studies recommended to clarify the relationship between gut microbiota and ITP.
