The roles of probiotics in the gut microbiota composition and metabolic outcomes in asymptomatic post-gestational diabetes women : A randomized controlled trial

Probiotics are widely used as an adjuvant therapy in various diseases. Nonetheless, it is uncertain how they affect the gut microbiota composition and metabolic and inflammatory outcomes in women who have recently experienced gestational diabetes mellitus (post-GDM). A randomized, double-blind, plac...
