Longitudinal Analysis of Microbiome Stability and Resilience Following Antibiotic Exposure

Rodrigues T, Santos M, Silva P
Microbiome
July 2025
67 citations

This two-year longitudinal study tracked microbiome composition in 150 individuals before, during, and after antibiotic treatment. We identified key factors influencing microbiome resilience and recovery, including baseline diversity, antibiotic class, and dietary patterns. Our findings inform strategies for microbiome protection and restoration following antibiotic exposure.

Machine Learning Algorithms Predict Personalized Dietary Responses Based on Gut Microbiome Profiles

Silva P, Costa A, Santos M, Ferreira J
Cell Metabolism
June 2025
102 citations

We developed and validated machine learning models that predict individual glycemic responses to specific foods based on gut microbiome composition. Training on data from 800 participants, our algorithms achieved 84% accuracy in predicting postprandial glucose responses. This work advances the field of precision nutrition and demonstrates the clinical utility of microbiome-based dietary recommendations.
