Abstrakt: Introduction: Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use has been associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal and upper respiratory infections in children. There are limited longitudinal data on the effect of PPI in children. The goal of this prospective observational study was to compare the stool and oropharyngeal microbiome of children before and after starting PPIs.
Methods: We prospectively recruited participants from a gastroenterology clinic. Consented participants provided stool samples and oropharyngeal swabs at baseline and after 8 weeks of PPI therapy. Microbiome changes were measured by analyzing 16S sequencing from both body sites at both time points.
Results: Thirty-four participants completed the study and provided samples both at baseline and after 8 weeks on PPI therapy. Of those, 24 participants had sufficient sequencing from both stool and oropharyngeal samples at both time points. There were no differences between the pre-PPI and post-PPI samples using beta-diversity metrics in either the oropharynx or stool. There were, however, significant changes in specific taxa. There was an enrichment of Streptococcus in the stool after PPI use and a reduction in the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium , Peptostreptococcus , and Turicibacter ( P -values < 0.01). Furthermore, there was an increase in the relative abundance of oropharyngeal bacteria in the stool after PPI therapy. This enrichment of oropharyngeal bacteria in the stool was most prominent in younger participants.
Discussion: Further investigation is needed to determine the clinical and microbial factors that predispose or protect against microbiome changes due to PPI use and why young children are more susceptible to this PPI effect.
