Filter by:In this study, the investigators aim to assess that infants with mild symptoms have significantly less (severe) symptoms after 14 days goat milk-based formula use compared to infants using cow's milk-based formula supplemented with probiotic drops.
Interleukin (IL)-6 is a cytokine produced in response to infection and tissue damage. IL-6 is believed to act as a key mediator in chronic inflammation and autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases. IL-6 is known to be involved in at least two distinct signalling pathways, classical and trans-signalling. The hypothesis is that classical signalling by IL-6 infers some beneficial effects (e.g. on gut barrier function), while excessive IL-6 trans-signalling may have detrimental effects. Olamkicept (FE 999301) has been shown in vitro to be a selective IL-6 trans-signalling inhibitor, and administered at lower doses (600 mg every 2nd week for 12 weeks) it has proven to induce clinical improvement for patients with ulcerative colitis. The aim of this trial is to investigate safety, tolerability, immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics of Olamkicept at higher doses (up to 2400 mg) to support the clinical development program. Our hypothesis is that treatment with higher doses of Olamkicept will result in greater clinical improvement for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation on the gastrointestinal symptoms, autistic symptoms and emotional behavior symptoms of patients with autism spectrum disorder, and investigate the relations between the brain-gut axis, cytokines and autism spectrum disorder. Fecal microbiota transplantation have the potentials to improve intestinal microbiota composition, regulate immunity, and then improve gastrointestinal symptoms, autistic symptoms, emotional behavior symptoms and sleep of children with autism spectrum disorder. Early intervention at school-age may even benefit development, improve cognition and prognosis.
The goal of this randomised trial is to learn about the role of AI in clinical coding practice. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the AI-based CAC system reduce the burden of clinical coding and also improve the quality of such coding? Participants will be asked to code clinical texts both while they use our CAC system and while they do not.
The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a dietary supplement (greens powder), on improving digestive health, quality of life, energy levels, and satiety over a 14-day period. Participants, aged 18-65 and experiencing mild digestive issues, will consume the greens powder daily and report outcomes through diaries and questionnaires.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) visual impression is operator-dependant and can hinder diagnostic accuracy, especially in less experienced endoscopists. The implementation of artificial intelligence can potentially mitigate operator dependency and interpretation variability, helping or improving the overall accuracy. The investigators therefore aim to compare diagnostic accuracy between artificial intelligence (AI)-based model and the endoscopists when identifying normal anatomical structures in EUS-procedures.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the levels of urinary environmental toxins, heavy metals, PFAS and mycotoxins with gastrointestinal (GI) and overall health.
The objective of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Skal Pro in alleviating symptoms, enhancing stool consistency, improving quality of life, and addressing psychological distress in individuals diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as compared to those who receive no intervention.
The goal of this single-centre observational study conducted at the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow, Scotland, is to employ a multi-omics approach to investigate the "gut-lung axis" in health and disease. Part A is a cross-sectional study design investigating the postulated bidirectional link between the gut and lung microbiomes in children suffering from respiratory or gastrointestinal conditions. Children with no GI or respiratory issues attending for orthopaedic care will be used as a benchmark for a healthy gut-lung axis. The main questions we aim to answer are: - What does a healthy gut-lung axis look like? - Do children with respiratory issues show an altered gut microbiome? - Do children with GI issues show an altered lung microbiome? Part B is a longitudinal study design, that aims to assess the effects of biologics on the gut-lung axis by comparing the gut and lung microbiomes in children with asthma at two time-points who are indicated to start biologics therapy (Asthma treatment) or will not receive biologics therapy (asthma control). Participants will provide: - airway samples (to investigate the lung microbiome) - blood samples (to assess inflammatory and metabolic factors which may mediate communication between the two sites) whilst under general anaesthetic for a treatment related to their standard of care - stool samples (to assess gut microbiome) - dietary information (food diary and/or food frequency questionnaire) to assess relationships between diet and the gut-lung axis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of trimebutine and probiotics in treating Functional Abdominal Pain Disorders (FAPD) in a pediatric population. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is trimebutine effective in reducing the symptoms of FAPD in children? Are probiotics effective in reducing the symptoms of FAPD in children? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups (trimebutine/probiotics, probiotics/placebo, or trimebutine/placebo). Undergo measurements for pain and other relevant metrics at the start of the study, after 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks. Researchers will compare the trimebutine/probiotics group to the probiotics/placebo and the trimebutine/placebo groups to see if there are significant differences in the efficacy of these treatments in reducing symptoms of FAPD in children.
