@article { , title = {The effect of a hydrolyzed protein diet on the fecal microbiota in cats with chronic enteropathy}, abstract = {Background The effect of a hydrolyzed protein diet on the fecal microbiota has not been studied in feline chronic enteropathy (CE). Our study aimed to 1) compare the fecal microbiota of cats with CE to control cats with no gastrointestinal signs and 2) determine the effect of a hydrolyzed protein diet on the fecal microbiota of cats with CE and whether this differs between dietary responders and non-responders. Results The fecal microbiome of cats with CE (n=36) showed decreased α-diversity in terms of genus richness (P=0.04) and increased β-diversity in terms of Bray-Curtis Dissimilarity (P}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-022-06576-y}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {BioMed Central}, year = {2022}, author = {Kathrani, Aarti} }
