TL;DR: In future studies, combined investigations of a particular compound with regard to human matrices such as breath, urine, saliva and cell culture investigations will lead to novel scientific progress in the field.

TL;DR: Results from VOC profiling of urine headspace are encouraging and suggest that there are other metabolomic avenues worth exploring which could help improve the stratification of men at risk of prostate cancer.

TL;DR: The first comprehensive study of the fecal VOMs patterns in patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D), active Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and healthy controls shows that fecalVOMs analyses could contribute to the diagnosis of IBS- D, for which there is no laboratory test, as well as IBD.

TL;DR: Recent evidence suggests an important role of gut microbial dysbiosis in IBD, and this may be associated with changes in faecal volatile organic metabolites (VOMs).

TL;DR: A new methodology and experimental implementations for real-time wave-based robot navigation in a complex, dynamically changing environment is introduced and principles of computation in reaction-diffusion (RD) nonlinear active media where autowaves are used for information processing purposes can be considered as RD computing devices.
