The present invention relates generally to medicine. More specifically the invention relates to the use of synergistic probiotic bacteria as intervention for health. In particular, the present invention provides a strain of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and a bacterial strain which has one or more of the characteristics of: (i) being acetate producing, (ii) being lactate consuming and (iii) having the ability to be an electron acceptor, for use in the treatment or prevention of a disease associated with reduced butyrate levels or a disease associated with reduced or low numbers of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii bacteria.

The present invention provides an inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition for gout and preparation method thereof, comprising a first gas and an atomized medicine. The first gas comprises hydrogen. The gas volume concentration of hydrogen in the inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition is between 2 to 96%. The atomized medicine is selected from a group comprising colchicine, allopurinol, probenecid, sulfinpyrazone, and any combination thereof. The inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can remove harmful radicals in the body of the patient through the use of hydrogen while also increases the absorption effect of the medicine for the patient by using an atomized medicine. At the same time, because the use of the small amount of the vaporized pharmaceutical liquid can indirectly reduce the side effects on the user.

Provided herein are, inter alia, methods and biomarkers to determine if a patient has or is at risk for developing an LPA-associated disease, to indicate the progressiveness of the disease, and/or to facilitate evaluation of responsiveness to therapy. Compositions and kits including the biomarker proteins and biomarker RNAs provided herein are further provided.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I):
