Gut Microbiomes of Malawian Twin Pairs Discordant for Kwashiorkor
Open accessAbstract
Not Just Wasting: Malnutrition is well known in Malawi, including a severe form—kwashiorkor—in which children do not simply waste away, they also suffer edema, liver damage, skin ulceration, and anorexia. Smith et al. (p. 548 ; see the Perspective by Relman ) investigated the microbiota of pairs of twins in Malawian villages and found notable differences in the composition of the gut microbiota in children with kwashiorkor. In these children, a bacterial species related to Desulfovibrio , which has been associated with bowel disease and inflammation, was noticeable. When the fecal flora from either the healthy or the sick twin was transplanted into groups of germ-free mice, the mice that received the kwashiorkor sample started to lose weight, like their human counterpart.

“Seminal studies using germ‐free mice confirmed the role of the gut microbiome in a number of diseases, including obesity,47 Kwashiorkor,48 and autism‐spectrum disorder,49 by inducing disease features in recipient animals following transfer of a patient‐associated microbiome.”
From The oral microbiome: Role of key organisms and complex networks in oral health and disease (2021) · cites this paper as [48]
In the citing paper
“Importantly, animal data further suggest that this “fasting” microbiome also contributes to malnourishment in the host, as a microbial transplant from individuals with Kwashiorkor (a form of severe protein-energy malnutrition) induced weight loss and altered protein and carbohydrate metabolism in the recipient mice [77].”
In the citing paper
“Transfer of fecal samples from undernourished children to GF mice elicited metabolic and immune dysregulations in the mouse model similar to those observed in the human host, suggesting that the manifestations of malnutrition could in part be attributed to the absence of certain beneficial microbes (280).”

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.
