What can the stable isotope values of human and animal faeces tell us? This often under‐
appreciated waste product is gaining recognition across a variety of disciplines. Faecal …

Sarcopenia is a multifactorial disease related to aging, chronic inflammation, insufficient
nutrition, and physical inactivity. Previous studies have suggested that there is a relationship …

Stable isotope analysis is increasingly being used to assess diet and trophic positions of
animals. Such assessments require estimates of trophic discrimination factors (TDFs)—offset …

Understanding the structure and dynamics of food webs requires accurate estimates of
energy flow among organisms. Bulk tissue carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope …

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is associated with several immune dysfunctions, including elevated
levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Microorganisms and their metabolites have been found …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review aims to summarize the recent findings about the
contribution of the gut microbiome to muscle pathophysiology and discuss molecular …

Background Animals evolved in a microbial world, and their gut microbial symbionts have
played a role in their ecological diversification. While many recent studies report patterns of …

Sarcopenia is thought to be related to the microbiome, but not enough reports in chronic
liver disease (CLD) patients. In addition to the differences in microbiome, the role of the …

Animals often consume resources from multiple energy channels, thereby connecting food
webs and driving trophic structure. Such 'multichannel feeding'can dictate ecosystem …

The measurement of naturally occurring stable isotope ratios of the light elements (C, N, H,
O, S) in animal tissues and associated organic and inorganic fractions of associated …
