| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The gut is an important target organ for injury after severe insults. We reported that gut microbiota and gut environment deteriorated in patients with severe systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and that count of fecal microbiota and concentrations of fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in these patients were significantly lower than those in healthy volunteers over a 6-week period. Furthermore, the gut flora was significantly altered in patients with sepsis, especially in non-survivors.
We evaluate if synbiotics therapy can maintain the gut microbiota and environment in patients with severe sepsis. There were significant differences between the synbiotics and no-synbiotics groups by the analysis of changes over time in number of total bacteria, Bifidobacterium, and Lactobacillus, and concentration of acetate and butylate. But there was no significant difference between the two groups about infectious complications and outcome.
