Zusammenfassung:Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are associated with changes in the gut bacterial composition, but little is known about the role of the viral community (virome) in disease development. This study aims to characterize the gut virome alterations in obese subjects with or without T2DM. There were 128 obese subjects (body mass index ≥28 kg/m2) and 101 lean controls (body mass index ≥18.5 and
