Microbiota association in patients related to uveitis.
| Disease | Number of patients | Region | Results | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Behçet's disease | 22* | Italy | Altered gut microbiota composition, reduction of butylate production | (40) |
| Behçet's disease | 12 (5 had uveitis) | Japan | Altered gut microbiota composition, increased fecal secretory IgA | (41) |
| Behçet's disease | 32 | China | Altered gut microbiota composition, transplantation of fecal microbiota from patients exacerbated EAU | (44) |
| Autoimmune uveitis | 13 (10 idiopathic, 3 VKH) | India | Altered gut microbiota composition | (42) |
| Acute anterior uveitis | 38 | China | No significant change in gut microbiota composition, altered fecal metabolic phenotype | (43) |
Presence of uveitis or eye inflammation was not mentioned.
VKH, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease.
