Clostridium Butyricum Miyairi clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT03247101 Active, not recruiting - Gallstones Clinical Trials

Probiotics for Gallstones in Post-bariatric Surgery Patients：A Prospective Randomized Trial

Start date: February 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Morbid obesity has become a major global health problem, and the use of bariatric surgery is increasing. One common complication seen following bariatric surgery is the formation of gallstones. Contributing factors to gallstone formation include hypomotility of gall bladder and supersaturation of bile due to rapid weight loss and mobilization of cholesterol. Previous studies revealed oral probiotics could reduce the cholesterol level by as much as 22% to 33%. The possible mechanisms included bile salt hydrolase activity, assimilation of cholesterol by the bacteria, binding of cholesterol to the bacterial cell wall and physiological actions of the end products of short chain fatty acid fermentation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the ability of probiotics to prevent gallstones formation after bariatric surgery and to evaluate the impact of oral administration of probiotics on the post bariatric surgery patients 's quality of life. Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index is a widely accepted questionnaire for evaluating the quality of life for patients receiving bariatric surgery. It consists of five domains: digestive symptoms; physical function; emotional condition; social condition and effect of medical treatment, which could access the quality of life of bariatric patient effectively and completely.
