This is figure 3, which shows antibiotic use and its associations with abundance of gut microbiome species.
An examination of the association between oral antibiotic use over eight years and the gut #microbiome in Swedish individuals found evidence that antibiotics can have long-lasting impacts on the gut microbiome. go.nature.com/40sw4kU #medsky 🧪

Antibiotics in the long run ⌛💊🦠
Antibiotic use shows lasting associations with reduced gut microbial diversity for up to 8 years, indicating long-term impacts on the adult gut microbiome.

Analyses of oral antibiotic use over 8 years in the Swedish Prescribed Drug Register and fecal metagenomes data of 14979 individuals found evidence that antibiotics can have long-lasting impacts on the gut microbiome. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-026-04284-y
The composition of the human gut microbiome is related to oral antibiotics used by the host 4-8 years earlier.
This is the conclusion of our new study in about 15000 individuals living in Sweden and published in Nature Medicine @naturemedicine.bsky.social 🧵

Impressive new study by @tovefall.bsky.social showing some antibiotics impact the gut microbiome >4 years

I shared some thoughts with Scientific American: www.scientificamerican.com/article/a-si...
Sadly, they did not include my answer to the question... 1/2
Thank you Jotham for the positive evaluation - that is exactly our stance as well - antibiotics are life-savers when used appropriately.
Thanks ☺️☺️☺️
A single course of antibiotics can have lasting effects on your gut microbiome, with changes that last well beyond 4 years. Three types of antibiotics stood out for their long term disruptive impact (3 at left, Figure)

🚨 New paper! Very excited to have been part of this collaborative work looking at the effect of antibiotics on the gut microbiota even years after prescription. Amazing effort led by Gabriel @tovefall.bsky.social and many others published today in Nature Medicine!

The Holobiont concept treats host and microbiome as one unit, but we often lack the "how."
A new study from @tovefall.bsky.social & Marju Orho-Melander of ~28k people just bridged that gap. We aren't just "carrying" microbes; our DNA is hardcoded to sense them.

Portrait of Tove Fall, SciLifeLab Group Leader and Uppsala University Professor, with greenery all around.
🧪 In two new studies on 28,000 individuals, researchers are able to show how 11 genetic variants affect gut microbiome.
@tovefall.bsky.social (SciLifeLab/@uu.se) led one of the studies.

Such a pleasure to work with you 🤗
Such a beautiful and inportant song and so incredibly sad it had to be written.
It was lovely to see you all - very impressed wit all your work 🤩

Slava Ukraini!

Did you try Perplexity? Better handling of sources and less hallucinations…
Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.
We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.
Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.
Det var inte jag.
Tack Christian!!
