مستخلص: An altered brain-gut axis is suspected to be one of the pathomechanisms in fibromyalgia (FM). This cross-sectional study investigated the associations among altered microbiota, psychological distress, and brain functional connectivity (FC) in FM. We recruited 25 FM patients and 25 healthy people in the present study. Psychological distress was measured using standardized questionnaires. Microbiota analysis was performed on the participants' stools. Functional magnetic resonance imaging data were acquired, and seed-based resting-state FC (rs-FC) analysis was conducted with the salience network nodes as seeds. Linear regression and mediation analyses evaluated microbiota, symptoms, and rs-FCs associations. We found altered microbiota diversity in FM, of which Phascolarctobacterium and Lachnoclostridium taxa increased the most and Faecalibacterium taxon decreased the most compared to controls. The Phascolarctobacterium abundance significantly predicted Beck depression inventory (BDI-II) scores in FM (β = 6.83; P = .033). Rs-FCs from salience network nodes were reduced in FM, of which rs-FCs from the right lateral rostral prefrontal cortex (RPFC) to the lateral occipital cortex, superior division right (RPFC-sLOC) could be predicted by BDI-II scores in patients (β = -.0064; P = .0054). In addition, the BDI-II score was a mediator in the association between Phascolarctobacterium abundance and rs-FCs of RPFC-sLOC (ab = -.06; 95% CI: -.16 to -9.10 -3 ). In conclusion, microbial dysbiosis might be associated with altered neural networks mediated by psychological distress in FM, emphasizing the critical role of the brain-gut axis in FM's non-pain symptoms and supporting further analysis of mechanism-targeted therapies to reduce FM symptoms. PERSPECTIVE: Our study suggests microbial dysbiosis might be associated with psychological distress and the altered salience network, supporting the role of brain-gut axis dysfunction in fibromyalgia pathomechanisms. Further targeting therapies for microbial dysbiosis should be investigated to manage fibromyalgia patients in the future.
