A study by researchers at the Mayo Clinic, published in *Cell*, linked gut microbes with certain types of cancer and their characteristics. The researchers analyzed samples from 1,364 patients and 287 people without cancer, identifying 341 microbial species associated with five cancer groups. They found differences in the microbiome among patients diagnosed with colorectal or breast cancer at age 50 or younger. Different bacterial species were also associated with survival time and with diarrhea linked to chemotherapy. According to the study’s index, patients whose microbiome pattern was most strongly associated with health had a 32% lower relative risk of death during follow-up. The researchers stressed that the findings show statistical associations; they do not prove that microbes cause cancer or currently make it possible to predict how the disease will progress.
