Why is protein fermentation often considered to have a negative impact on our colonic tissue?
What common features can be said about newborn babies with respect to the microbiotal composition?
Immediately afterwards, strict anaerobes start to colonize, bifidobacteria are in general dominantly present.
After weaning, the numbers of bifidobacteria decline and the microbiota function seems to become less chaotic.
Is microbiota similar in time/individuals?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
Explain "Dollo's law of irreversibility".
Why seems enterotypes like a feasible hypothesis?
What was the result when they compared conventional mice with germ-free mice in relation to obesity?
What is the difference in Bacteriodetes/Firmicutes ratio between lean and obese mice?
What are the proposed mechanisms of the impact of microbiota on obesity?
2. Inactivation AMP activated protein kinase -> suppression FAO.
3. Signalling microbiota -> promoting low grade pro-inflammatory state.
4. Production SCFA -> energy fuel and regulating transit time and bowel movement via G-protein receptors and enteroendocrine peptide YY.
Please explain the link between obesity and insulin sensitivity.
What are the three subtypes of IBS?
IBS-C: Constipation predominant
IBS-N: Mixed defecation (most common)
What did O'Mahony and colleagues demonstrated? And Kajander et al?
It is thought that this strain modulated the immune response in IBS parients by normalizing cytokine IL10/IL12 ratio, which was found abnormal in IBS population.
Kajander found that an intervention with multispecies probiotic significantly decreased IBS symptoms. Micorbiota composition was stabilized.
There is no uniform correlation between microbiota and IBS in different studies. Name 6 possible explanations.
2. Number of subjects per study is limited.
3. Single snaphop of microbiota vs chronic characteristic IBS -> more samples in time are needed.
4. Improvement subtyping of IBS patients needed.
5. Enterotype-specific impact?
6. Microbiota analytic tools are different.
How can C. difficile be harmful and what treatment has a high succesrate?
Name a model for the impact of bacteria.
What are some common features of microbiota in health and disease?
- Composition microbiota often reduced in diversity and unstable in disease.
- Composition microbiota different in structure compared to healthy individuals.
- Difficult to assign specific microbes to disease.
1. studies have different contradicting observations.
2. in case of correlation; microbe cause or consequence of disease?
3. confounders (use medication etc)
- Microbiota transplantation outcome?
