• Gut Microbiota in Cardiovascular Health and Disease (2017, background): “Independent of body mass index and other metabolic disturbances, associations between levels of circulating triglycerides and high density lipoprotein cholesterol with gut microbiota have been reported.(125) Although the underlying biological mechanisms through which gut microbiota or their metaboli”
• Dietary lipids, gut microbiota and lipid metabolism (2019, methodology): “Furthermore, by performing cross-validation analysis on taxonomic data of fecal microbiota, biometrics and metabolic measurements from a general population cohort study in the Netherlands, Fu et al could attribute 6% of variance of serum triglycerides and 4% in HDL to the gut microbiota composition ”
• Gut Microbiome: Profound Implications for Diet and Disease (2019, background): “Consistent with the Belgian [221] and other studies [7,120], earlier analysis of the Dutch population cohort revealed that bacterial taxa could explain BMI and blood lipids independent of age, gender, and host genetics [229].”
