Foundation DB
In the context of abstracting the activities of the bacteria, their signaling, and the harm they do to the human host we identified a set of important elements that will help us cope with the balance and harmful understanding of each player in the ecosystem.
Therefore based on over 2000 medically approved and signed research papers we started to manually create an individual database of meta-characteristics for each bacteria with the purpose to use it as a foundational source of truth for a predictive algorithm
Among all the data that is relevant on each bacterial level some information is more relevant than others at this step in time of our technology system
Patogenity ( is it pathogen or not)
Normal levels without impact on health
The upper limit in a healthy version and the lower limit in a normal person
Multiplication rates
Consumption metabolites
Generated metabolites
Symbiosis with other bacteria strains
Signalling-damage-result ( what happens or could happen if this bacteria is present for too long in certain quantities)
Signaling-damage-result weight ( a leveling from 1 to 10 on the ratio between what presence in stool can create how big damage.
Effect on Intestinal Lining
Medical history in IBD
Relation to Ulcerations
Relation to bleeding
Relation to bloating
Relation to gut-blood axis
Relation to gut-liver-axis
Relation to gut-joints-axis
Relation to gut-skin-axis
Prevalence in other diseases
Sensitivity to antibiotics
The efficiency rate of antibiotics for each bacteria
Plenty more other attributes and taxonomic information are part of a bacteria body, but they are not relevant for the exercise of this document.
In essence, this database covering hundreds of bacteria on specific attributes was built by the NostraBiome team gradually by integrating data from multiple research papers, studies, and laboratories known how.
This database serves as a foundation for the algorithm to further make decisions and use mathematical data to drive predictions about how some drugs might alter the bacteria setup and eventually on what symptoms we should see results.
