Microbiota Profile in Saudi Children with Ulcerative Colitis

In view of the emerging condition and lack of information on the role of microbiota in Saudi Arabia, shotgun metagenomic sequencing was used to describe the Microbiota in Saudi Children with Ulcerative Colitis. Microbial dysbiosis was demonstrated in this population and microbiota signature was identified. Results are preliminary and further studies with large sample size are needed.
