The Three-Way Interplay Among Early Life Exposures, The Gut Microbiome, And Outcomes In Infancy, Yuka Moroishi
Dartmouth College Ph.D Dissertations
The bidirectional relationship between the gut microbiome and immune system plays an important role in host immune status: the immune system provides the gut microbiome the optimal environment to thrive in, and the gut microbiome helps regulate the immune system. This relationship is especially important in infants, whose immune system is still premature and rely on innate immunity.
We investigated the three-way interplay among early-life exposures, the developing gut microbiome, and outcomes in infancy from the general population in New Hampshire, US. We used prospective cohort data from the New Hampshire Birth Cohort study to 1) determine whether timing of …

Patient-Provider Race And Sex Concordance: New Insights Into Antibiotic Prescribing For Acute Bronchitis, Jake R. Morgan, Mari-Lynn Drainoni, Cindy Christiansen, Tamar F. Barlam
Journal of Health Disparities Research and Practice
Objective: To examine whether patient and provider concordance by sex or race predicts antibiotic prescribing for acute bronchitis.
Study setting: General Internal Medicine and Family Medicine adult clinics at a large safety-net hospital.
Study design: We used a logistic model of prescribing as a function of race and sex concordance.
Data extraction: Data were extracted from de-identified patient records for those with an acute bronchitis visit between 2008 and 2010.
Principal findings: 71% (95% CI 68%-73%) of visits resulted in an antibiotic prescription. Patients in race-concordant visits were 17% (95% CI 8%-25%) less likely to receive …
