Abstract
Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a severe side effect of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) that has complex phenotypes and often unpredictable outcomes. The current management is not always able to prevent aGVHD. A neglected actor in the management of aGVHD is the gut microbiota. Gut microbiota dysbiosis after aHSCT is caused by many factors and may contribute to the development of aGVHD. Diet and nutritional status modify the gut microbiota and a wide range of products are now available to manipulate the gut microbiota (pro-, pre-, and postbiotics). New investigations are testing the effect of probiotics and nutritional supplements in both animal models and human studies, with encouraging results. In this review, we summarize the most recent literature about the probiotics and nutritional factors able to modulate the gut microbiota and we discuss the future perspective in developing new integrative therapeutic approaches to reducing the risk of graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing aHSCT.

Abstract
The significant advancements made in the field of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) have ensured increased longevity in transplant recipients. However, they do have late effects that may adversely affect the endocrine system, bone health, and body composition. This study was undertaken to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone score, and body composition in recipients of allo-HSCT and compare them with age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) matched controls. This was a cross-sectional study done in 63 cases and 65 matched controls. The mean femoral neck BMD was found to be lower in cases than in controls (0.777 [0.119] versus 0.846 [0.122] g/cm2, P = .002). Among cases, the mean BMD at the neck of femur was lower in patients who had received myeloablative conditioning compared with those who had received the nonmyeloablative regimen (0.731 [0.090] versus 0.802 [0.126] g/cm2, P = .014]. The mean (SD) bone density at the lumbar spine was significantly lower in the group that had received total body irradiation compared with the group that did not (0.930 [0.111] versus 0.993 [0.127], P = .044). Trabecular bone score did not differ between cases and controls (1.383 [0.877] versus 1.389 [0.750], P = .670). The lean mass was significantly lower (15.9 [2.4] versus 18.6 [4.8] kg/m2, P < .001) and the prevalence of sarcopenia (42% versus 11%, P < .001) significantly higher in cases than in controls. Normal-weight obesity was also noted to be higher among those with sarcopenia than in those without (12/26 versus 5/36; P = .009). The procedure of allo-HSCT may thus cause an impairment of bone health and alterations in body composition well after the cure of the primary disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present single-center observational study determined the prevalence and coexistence of sarcopenia, pre-sarcopenia, and metabolic syndrome (MetS) among apparently healthy Arab men and whether having both conditions present a unique cardiometabolic profile that is distinct than having the conditions separately. METHODS A total of 471 out of 530 Arab men aged 20-77 years old were included after screening for the presence of pre-sarcopenia (ALM/ht2 < 7.26 kg/m2), sarcopenia (presence of both low muscle mass and low function), and MetS. MetS screening was done using the definition by the NCEP-ATP III. Based on the screening results, the participants were classified as control (normal) group (N = 328), MetS only (N = 73), pre-sarcopenia only (N = 64), and MetS + pre-sarcopenia (N = 6). RESULTS Pre-sarcopenia without MetS was observed in 64 participants (13.6%), while MetS without pre-sarcopenia was observed in 73 participants (15.5%). MetS + pre-sarcopenia was observed only in 6 participants (1.3%). None of the participants had sarcopenia. Age- and BMI-adjusted comparisons showed that those with MetS + pre-sarcopenia had the highest diastolic blood pressure and triglyceride levels as compared to all groups (p values < 0.001). MetS + pre-sarcopenia group also had the highest levels of glucose and the lowest lean arms-legs/BMI ratio than control and pre-sarcopenia groups (p values < 0.001 and 0.005, respectively). CONCLUSION The prevalence of pre-sarcopenia + MetS is low among young adult Arab men, but shows a unique cardiometabolic profile that is worse than those having only one of the conditions. Further investigations should be done among Arab women and the elderly.
