PECULIARITIES OF THE GUT MICROBIOTA IN PATIENTS WITH MIGRAINE COMPARING TO HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS. Wiadomosci lekarskie (Warsaw, Poland : 1960), 75(9 pt 2), 2218–2221. https://doi.org/10.36740/WLek20220920710.36740/WLek202209207https://ir.kmu.edu.ua/handle/123456789/294The aim: Analyze the gut microbiome state in patients with migraine (M) and healthy individuals, to assess possible correlations between the detected changes in patients with migraine and the frequency, intensity of headaches, psycho-emotional state of the patients, and their quality of life. Materials and methods: 100 objects were enrolled, divided into 2 groups: main – patients with M and control – healthy volunteers. Investigation of the intestinal microbiome was performed by chromato-mass spectrometry. For M patients the following scales were used: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS), Back Depression Inventory (BDI). Results: In main group increased amount of Alcaligenes spp (p = 0.0061), Clostridium coccoides (p = 0.0021), Clostridium propionicum (p = 0.0287), Eggerthella lenta (p = 0.0138), Pseudonocardiaspp (p = 0.0210),Rhodococcus spp (p = 0.0164), Candidaspp (p = 0.0079), Micromycetes spp(campesterol) (p = 0.0011) were found. Patients with M had a raised amount of Herpes simplex (p = 0.0305) and endotoxin level (p = 0.0459). Differences in gut microorganisms in both groups were significant. In patients with M negative correlations were observed between Alcaligenes spp ammount and BDI score (r = -0.6226, p =0.007), VAS score (r = -0.489, p = 0.046), headache frequency (r = -0.487, p = 0.046); between the levels of Clostridium coccoides and MIDAS score (r =-0.51, p = 0.035), BDI score (r = -0.54, p = 0.025) and positive correlation between Eggerthellalenta level and VAS score (r =0.4830, p=0.049). Conclusions: Correlations between changes of gut microbiome and M are promising for further research.enmigrainedepressioninfluencegut microbiotaArticle
