TL;DR: In this paper, the longer-term effects of metformin treatment and behavioral weight loss on gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were evaluated in a 3-parallel-arm, randomized trial.
Timing of complementary feeding is associated with gut microbiota diversity and composition and short chain fatty acid concentrations over the first year of life.
TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the hypothesis that early (vs. later) introduction to complementary foods is associated with altered gut microbiota composition and butyric acid concentrations measured in stool until at least 1 year of age.
Potential interaction between timing of infant complementary feeding and breastfeeding duration in determination of early childhood gut microbiota composition and BMI.

TL;DR: It is unknown whether the timing of introduction to complementary foods (early vs. late) in infancy is associated with early childhood gut microbiota and BMI, and if these associations depend on breastfeeding duration.

Association of birth mode of delivery with infant faecal microbiota, potential pathobionts, and short chain fatty acids: a longitudinal study over the first year of life.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined birth delivery mode (CS versus vaginal delivery) with the infant gut microbiota and faecal SCFAs measured 3 and 12 months after birth and found that CS was associated with increased butyrate excretion, decreased Bifidobacterium and Bacteroides spp.

TL;DR: In this article , a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted to determine the effect of vaginal seeding on the skin and stool microbiota of elective C-section-born infants.
