Abstract: We read with interest the study by Kartal et al showing that the gut-microbiota- derived biomarkers for disease stratification are often shared by subjects across disease cohorts. Here, we confirmed their observations with findings from a newly diagnosed natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) cohort, in which the gut biomarkers were significantly overlapped with those of multiple disease cohorts and consistently enriched/depleted in subjects with those diseases. Importantly, many of the shared biomarkers were remarkably associated with patient outcomes in our cohort, implying that they may have broad prognostic values in multiple diseases.
