Abstract
As we advance our understanding of the gut microbiota, the implications of dysbiosis are becoming increasingly apparent. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), a well-established procedure, is recognized for effectively treating recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection, prompting further investigation into its other possible clinical applications. Donor selection and screening are essential to ensure safety and efficacy. Product development and standardization, such as the US Food and Drug Administration-approved live biotherapeutic products Rebyota and Vowst, are helping efforts to evaluate FMT for other gastrointestinal and extraintestinal diseases. However, additional clinical trials are needed to support its use beyond recurrent C difficile infection.
期刊介绍：
The mission of Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine (CCJM) is to provide its readers with up-to-date, practical, clinical information relevant to internal medicine, cardiology, and related fields. Consistent with this mission, CCJM focuses on timely review articles and other content that has a continuing-education orientation rather than on original research or case reports. CCJM authors, drawn from Cleveland Clinic and other top medical institutions throughout the world, are asked to identify new findings that are changing the practice of medicine and to advise readers how to apply them in daily patient care. Authors are chosen for their experience, acquired through caring for patients, teaching other physicians, and researching clinical questions.
