Meta-analysis of gut microbiota biodiversity in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome based on medical images

Abstract

PCOS is thought to be associated with metabolic disorders, endocrine disorders, and reproductive system problems. By collecting relevant literature and conducting meta-analyses, we integrated data from multiple studies to enhance the reliability of the analysis results. Studies with medical image data were selected to ensure the accuracy and credibility of the studies. A statistical framework was employed to examine the biodiversity indicators associated with the gut microbiota. These findings provide robust support for the notion that PCOS is intricately linked to notable alterations within the gut microbial community. The utilization of a statistical approach and the systematic synthesis of research findings in this meta-analysis contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the substantial impact of PCOS on the gut microbiota landscape. PCOS patients showed significant changes in the relative abundance of certain bacteria in their gut microbiota. This imbalance will lead to the instability of intestinal microecological environment, and then affect the health of the body.
