A study of genetic regulation of gut motility identified two new genes linked to vitamin B1 (thiamine) metabolism. A follow-up analysis of dietary information from almost 100,000 participants in the UK Biobank dataset confirmed a positive relationship between thiamine intake and frequency of bowel movements. This finding has implication for the management of IBS and constipation.

A River’s Microbiome May Protect Wild Salmon Against Malnutrition
"Chinook salmon may be canaries in the coal mine by revealing that widespread thiamine deficiency could be quietly chiseling away at fish, bird, and wildlife populations across the northern hemisphere"

It's unfortunate that the research article is paywalled.
From the Editor's Summary: "Pyrimidines are essential metabolites for biosynthesis but are not typically viewed as playing an important role in central carbon metabolism. Sahu et al. now report that pyrimidines influence the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase, a key intermediary enzyme between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle and respiration. Depletion of pyrimidines led to loss of thiamine pyrophosphate (a required cofactor for pyruvate dehydrogenase), apparently because the pyrimidine UTP rather than ATP functions as a preferred substrate for TPK1, the enzyme that produces thiamine pyrophosphate. ..."
Some ppl report improvement in chronic health problems with thiamine or d-ribose supplementation. I've always been wary of the latter due to concerns about cancer-promotion and also neurological harms, as D-ribose increases production of advanced glycation end products.
Thiamine seems to have a biphasic dose response with respect to cancer-promotion, at least in vitro.
