Core Tip	The gut microbiota (GM) has evolved with the host and has become an integral part of the human body. The GM is highly dynamic and changes depending on the person's diseases, diet, habits, living area, water sources and many other factors. Changes in GM abundance can affect some basic immunological, metabolic, structural and neurological functions of the human body. Therefore, the GM has important effects on both the physical and mental health of an individual. In this beautiful study by Zhao et al examining GM changes after trans-jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, the effect of the dynamic process in GM and its relationship with hepatic encephalopathy are beautifully described.
