The human gut microbiome is a critical indicator of a person's health because of its profound influence on physiological processes. The number of bacterial cells outnumbers the number of human cells in the gut microbiota, and these microbes play large roles in metabolism and immune function to keep the body alive.[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4566439/#:~:text=In%20a%20healthy%20state%2C%20the,modulation%20of%20the%20immune%20system.]

The gut microbiome also serves as a barrier against pathogens, preventing their colonization and mitigating the risk of infections. However, disruption in the gut microbiota composition or function can weaken this barrier, increasing the susceptibility to pathogen invasion and potentially leading to gastrointestinal infections.[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4566439/#:~:text=In%20a%20healthy%20state%2C%20the,modulation%20of%20the%20immune%20system.]

A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.
To repeat the citation for other statements, the reference needs to have a names: "<ref name=aa>"
The repeated citation works like this, with a forward slash.[2]












The insertion code consists of:
