    Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) significantly impacts patient quality of life and has limited therapeutic options.

  • 2

    Microbial imbalances and antibiotic resistance gene profiles in CP/CPPS patients may inform more effective and personalized treatment strategies.

  • 3

    Nanopore sequencing technologies enable comprehensive analysis of microbial communities, revealing potential pathogenic influences like Bacillus velezensis.

  • 4

    The study utilizes advanced bioinformatics tools to analyze microbial metabolic pathways and virulence factors, guiding targeted therapeutic development.

  • 5

    Identifying bacterial populations and their resistance patterns could improve antibiotic selection and reduce recurrence in CP/CPPS patients.
