Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recent studies suggest that gut microbiome, the microbial community in the intestine, may directly and indirectly influence the progression of atherosclerosis. The imbalance of gut microbiome may directly promote the formation of atherosclerotic plaques by promoting the inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress affecting vascular endothelial function and increasing platelet activity. Meanwhile, it can indirectly increase the risk of atherosclerosis by enhance insulin resistance, reducing the production of bile acids and raising serum LDL-C and angiotensin levels. As shown in these researches, gut microbiome, acting as a bridge between metabolism, energy and inflammatory responses, may play an important role in cardiovascular diseases, and we believe that the interaction between microbiome and host should be considered in the ASCVD study.
