Intestinal microbiota in human health and disease: the impact of probiotics
Open accessAbstract
The complex communities of microorganisms that colonise the human gastrointestinal tract play an important role in human health. The development of culture-independent molecular techniques has provided new insights in the composition and diversity of the intestinal microbiota. Here, we summarise the present state of the art on the intestinal microbiota with specific attention for the application of high-throughput functional microbiomic approaches to determine the contribution of the intestinal microbiota to human health. Moreover, we review the association between dysbiosis of the microbiota and both intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases. Finally, we discuss the potential of probiotic microorganism to modulate the intestinal microbiota and thereby contribute to health and well-being. The effects of probiotic consumption on the intestinal microbiota are addressed, as well as the development of tailor-made probiotics designed for specific aberrations that are associated with microbial dysbiosis.

High villus height and high villus height/crypt ratio are indicators of intestinal epithelial development.
“Some researchers indicated that high villus height and high villus height crypt ratio could be the indicators of intestinal epithelial development [6][7][8].”
From The prevention role of Spirulina platensis (Arthrospira platensis) on intestinal health (2022) · cites this paper as [6]
The ‘Microbial diversity along the GI tract’ section discusses intestinal conditions and microbiota, but does not identify villus height or the villus-height/crypt ratio as measures of epithelial development. Searches for ‘villus,’ ‘crypt depth,’ and the claimed ratio found no passage addressing that point in our copy. Page numbers were not available. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe gut microbiota has a key role in metabolic, nutritional, physiological, defensive and immunological processes in the human body.
“The gut microbiota has a key role in metabolic, nutritional, physiological, defensive and immunological processes in the human body, and its composition is closely connected to individuals’ health and the diseases they experience[12,13].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
