Filter by:The Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGIDS) Registry is a longitudinal study that does not involve medical interventions, but serves as a record of demographics, characteristics of disease and treatment, utilization patterns, quality improvement measures and clinical outcomes. The database is proposed so that epidemiologic research can be performed and current and accurate data can be obtained regarding practice patterns, age and gender distributions, efficacy of treatment, clinical outcomes and changes in quality of life.
Digestive discomfort includes gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, altered bowel habit, flatulence and bloating and can sometimes result from slower intestinal transit and other digestive irregularities. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of consuming Aquamin (as AquaCal and AquaPT) on digestive discomfort and symptoms amongst adults without diagnosed gastrointestinal disorders.
The objectives of this study are to determine the safety and efficacy of IW-9179 administered to patients with functional dyspepsia (FD).
The purpose of this Randomized, Double-blind, Multicenter, Two-period Crossover Study is to Assess the Efficacy and Tolerability of Burlulipase (NM-BL) in Patients with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency due to Cystic Fibrosis
An International, multicenter, epidemiological observational study investigating the prevalence of Transthyretin-Related Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP) in participants with small fiber polyneuropathy of no obvious etiology.
A feasibility study for monitoring and recording gastrointestinal (GI) myoelectric activity in subjects with suspected or diagnosed irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and reports of GI pain and asymptomatic subjects without IBS and GI pain.
This phase III trial studies how well domperidone works in treating patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Domperidone may help control chronic gastrointestinal disorders and their symptoms, such as pain, bloating, and nausea and vomiting, by stimulating contraction of the stomach to increase its ability to empty itself of food.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a Chinese herbal proprietary medicine, MaZiRenWan (MZRW), by comparing with stimulant laxative western medicine (WM), senna, and placebo for patients with functional constipation (FC) in excessive TCM syndrome.
Various digestive manifestations are common in infants less than 6 months and have a significant impact on morbidity and quality of life of the family. In a prospective study on more than 2800 Italian infants followed by 0-6 months of life, it was determined that 55% of these children had gastrointestinal symptoms such as regurgitation (23%), colics (20%), constipation (17%) or poor weight gain (15%). However, these symptoms are not very accurate, and their cause is often difficult to determine. Frequently, the pediatrician will exclude cow's milk protein in infant feeding, but without a clear etiological diagnosis was asked. This measure causes significant additional costs through the use of extensively hydrolyzed milk specifically for children and involves an elimination diet of all foods containing cow's milk sometimes for several years. This can negatively influence the growth of the child. If the involvement of milk in these pathologies is suggested by some early studies (35% for colics, 68% in constipation, 42% in gastroesophageal reflux), it is unclear in the current state of knowledge if these gastrointestinal symptoms are actually due to an "allergy" to milk. Moreover, there is no validated diagnostic test for non-IgE-mediated gut allergy. However, various tests have proven their effectiveness in the investigation of non IgE-mediated allergy (eg. LAT, patch tests) and will be used in this study.
The purpose of this research study is to help us learn if children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have gastrointestinal (stomach and intestine) problems more frequently than children without ASD do. The investigators hope to learn if children with ASD and gastrointestinal (GI) disorders have certain Problem Behaviors (PB), such as self-injury and aggression, more than children with ASD but no GI disorders do. The investigators want to learn if the Gastrointestinal Symptoms Questionnaire (GIQ) can help us tell which children with ASD also have gastrointestinal disorders. Hypothesis 1: Children with ASD exhibit high rates of symptomatic GI dysfunction that are not identified by current diagnostic evaluation. Hypothesis 2: Painful or discomfort-causing gastrointestinal dysfunctions contribute to an elevated incidence or severity of PB in an identifiable subpopulation of PB-expressing children. The investigators anticipate that the proposed study will raise the standard of medical care for children with ASD by improving current methods of identifying GI dysfunction and determining whether there is a significant relationship between GI dysfunction and PB in this population.
