Biography

Stéphane Cullati is a sociologist and Senior Lecturer in Epidemiology and Public Health at the University of Fribourg. He trained in sociology and social sciences at the Universities of Lausanne, Geneva and Grenoble, and obtained a doctorate (PhD) in the sociology of health and the life course from the University of Geneva and a habilitation in social epidemiology from the University of Fribourg. He carried out post-doctoral research at University College London Research Department of Epidemiology & Public Health. His research focuses on the relationship between health and society, from the perspective of social inequalities in health, the life course, social policies and reserves. His research has examined the impact of public policy on health inequalities, the (historical) evolution of social inequalities in health, and inequalities in cancer screening.

  Social inequalities in the gut microbiome: individual participants meta-analyse of population-level data
  Status: Completed

  Start	01.12.2019
  End	30.11.2020
  Funding	SNSF  Open project sheet
  Background: Despite substantial improvement in population health in the past five decades, health inequalities remain stable and consistent across time and space, if not increasing. If the link between social characteristics and health is well-established, the biological pathways between social exposures and health are less clear. Epigenetic factors and the stress model (McEwen 1998) attracted most of the empirical evidence on biological pathways. Recent advances in basic and clinical researches have highlighted the important role of the gut micro-biome for health. We hypothesis that the gut micro-biome could be another biological pathway mediating the social exposures and health link. Objective: To examine the associations between social variables and gut micro-biome biomarkers signatures. Method: individual participants meta-analyse of general population-level gut microbiome. Studies will be included if 1) participants are healthy patients or from the general population, 2) they collected data on the gut microbiome and 3) social information (social status and socioeconomic) on participants. Studies will be identified through literature review of studies on healthy participants, repositories of gut microbiome data (Human Microbiome Project Data Portal, European Genome-phenome Archive), and citizen science microbiome projects (e.g., Microsetta Initiative). Studies’ principal investigators (PI) will be contacted and screened for possible inclusion in the meta-analyse. First, analyses will be performed in each study, separately. Association between socioeconomic (primary objective) and social status (secondary objective) variables and gut biomarkers signatures will be estimated by generating odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals estimated with logistic regression analysis. Dichotomisation of biomarkers will be made following clinical guidelines, corrected for sex and age strata when appropriate, and checked by an expert in microbiology collaborating with our team. When appropriate, the analyses will be stratified by sex. When gut biomarkers will be measured repeatedly, the difference between baseline and follow-up will be estimated, and attrition will be included in the estimation. Second, estimates will be pooled in a meta-analysis. Fixed or random effect models will be determined depending on studies heterogeneity. Heterogeneity between studies will be computed with I2 and t2 statistics and 95% prediction intervals for odds ratios will be used to account for t2. Funnel plots will be assessed to identify if biases are operating in the findings. Robustness and sensitivity analyses will be conducted (molecular techniques bias, selection bias). Expected results: we expect cross-sectional associations between socioeconomic status and gut micro-biome signatures, suggesting a social gradient in the gut micro-biome of the general population. Limitations: the gut micro-biome is expected to be a potential, new, biological mediator between social exposures and health, however further researches collecting longitudinally data of gut micro-biome, dietary habits, anthropometrics measures, lifestyles and diseases information, social and life course information, will be needed to confirm this hypothesis.
