Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test a food supplement in children of 3-12 years with IBS-D. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the tested supplement able to improve and/or reduce IBS-related symptoms? - After administration of the food supplement, how does the state of intestinal inflammation improve? - Is the gut microbiota modified? Participants will take the food supplement every day for 2 months. After 30 days and after 60 days, they will be visited from the gastroenterologist. - They have to fill in the questionnaire and the symptom's diary weekly and deliver it to the gastroenterologist during the visits - At the first visit, they will collect the faecal sample for the analysis of inflammatory markers and gut microbiota - After 30 days, they will collect the faecal sample for the analysis of inflammatory markers - After 60 days, they will collect the faecal sample for the analysis of gut microbiota Researchers will compare with placebo to see if the product is effective.
This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Inactivated Rotavirus Vaccine (IRV) in children (aged 2-71 months). Primary immunogenicity endpoints in two age groups are the anti-RV neutralizing antibody geometric mean titers (GMTs) 28 days after the final dose, anti-RV neutralizing antibody geometric mean increase (GMI), and seroconversion rates between baseline and 28 days after the final dose. The secondary safety endpoints are the number of adverse events/reactions within 30 minutes after each dose, the number of solicited adverse events/reactions within 7 days after each dose, the number of unsolicited adverse events/reactions within 28/30 days after each dose, and the number of serious adverse events (SAE) between the first dose up to 6 months after the final dose. The exploratory endpoints are the anti-RV IgG and IgA antibody GMT 28 days after the final dose, GMI and seroconversion rates of anti-RV IgG and IgA antibody between baseline and 28 days after the final dose, GMT and seropositive rates of anti-RV neutralizing antibody, IgG antibody and IgA antibody 90, 180, and 360 days after the final dose. Besides, as the exploratory endpoint, the GMT, GMI, and seroconversion rates of cross-neutralizing antibodies against G3 and G9 type of RV, gene transcription differences in peripheral blood mononuclear cells on Day 0 and 28 after the final dose will be assessed.
Randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial (RCT) study, to determine the impact of XCHT on irinotecan-induced severe delayed-onset diarrhea (SDOD), and to determine the feasibility of using plasma raloxifene-4'-glucuronide as a probe for intestinal UGT activity.
Diarrhea remains a leading cause of death among young children, with the majority of diarrhea deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries. Childhood diarrhea caused by a type of bacteria called "Shigella" is responsible for an estimated 60,000 deaths each year and may cause particularly severe illness among children. Currently, there are several promising vaccines to prevent Shigella diarrhea in development, but key information is still needed to inform future vaccine studies. The purpose of this study, titled Enterics for Global Health (or the "EFGH"), is to determine the number and rate of new cases of Shigella diarrhea among children 6 to 35 months of age presenting to health facilities with diarrhea or dysentery. Over a two-year period, the EFGH study will enroll 1,400 children from each of the seven countries: Peru, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Mali, Malawi, Kenya, and The Gambia (9,800 children total).
Chronic watery diarrhoea is a very common problem in the population and most of these patients will be referred for colonoscopy. If no macroscopic findings are observed during colonoscopy to justify the diarrhoea, serial colonic biopsies will be taken to rule out Microscopic Colitis (MC). However, it has been estimated that only 10-15% of these patients will be diagnosed with MC after colonoscopy. Therefore, about 80% of the biopsies collected and analysed will not be useful to establish a diagnosis, considerably increasing costs. To predict the risk of developing MC, a new promising clinical scoring system has been recently developed. This score will be useful in the diagnostic work-up of chronic watery diarrhoea to prioritize colonoscopy with stepwise colonic biopsies in patients with a positive highly specific score for MC. In cases with a negative score, colonoscopy plus biopsies should be performed only if other diagnostic tests are negative. The aim of this current study is to externally validate the new scoring system to predict MC in patients with chronic watery diarrhoea.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the prevalence and characteristics of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) in at risk infants (former preterm infants and those with birth asphyxia) during the first 2 years of life. The main questions it aims to answer are: - evaluate the prevalence of symptoms related to gastro-esophageal reflux (GER), of functional gastrointestinal disorders during the first 2 years of life - describe growth parameters during follow-up up to the corrected age of 2 years Participants will be assessed clinically and with a structured questionnaire based on the Rome IV criteria to describe FGID.
The purpose of this study is the effect of a study bar, which contains 15 grams of insoluble dietary fiber total sourced from Hemp hulls, on intestinal permeability in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-bile acid diarrhea individuals.
Colorectal cancer in periooperative period patients (n=60) will be enrolled to this study. Participants will be divided into 4 groups as follows: - group 1 (n=15) will receive 2 capsules (per day) of L. plantarum 299v L. plantarum 299v (Sanprobi IBS®) for 4 weeks - group 2 (n=15) will receive L. plantarum 299v (2 capsules per day) and inulin (4 g) for 4 weeks - group 3 (n=15) will receive placebo (2 capsules per day) and inulin (4 g) for 4 weeks - group 4 (n=15) will receive placebo (2 capsules per day) for 4 weeks
Objective: The investigators objective is to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a case area targeted water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) intervention in reducing cholera infections and increasing sustained WASH behaviors in transmission hotspots in a ring around cholera cases.
This is a A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Different Doses of OPS-2071 in the Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome of Diarrhea type (IBS-D).The trial is mainly divided into three periods: screening period, treatment period and follow-up period.
