Filter by:Zinc deficiency in children is a major problem which leads to compromised immunity and accordingly repeated infections. This study aims to investigate the effect of supplementing zinc to decrease the incidence of diarrhea and respiratory illness in children between 6 months and 5 years in Paediatric Outpatient Clinic in Ain Shams University Hospital.
Pyrotinib is an important drug for the treatment of breast cancer, but the incidence of diarrhea is very high. At present, there is no particularly effective drug for diarrhea induced by pyrotinib. Trying to intervene with traditional Chinese medicine may bring better results to patients.
Several probiotic strains have shown beneficial outcomes in IBS patients, particularly among the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera, Lactobacillus plantarum (recently reclassified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum) is a frequently isolated species of the healthy human GI tract that has been studied in numerous GI clinical studies, including for IBS.In the present study, the efficacy and tolerability of L. plantarum (UALp-05TM), will be evaluated in individuals with IBS-D.
Run-in safety study, to determine the safety of co-administration of irinotecan, raloxifene, and Xiao Chai Hu Tang (XCHT), and to optimize the blood collection time points for pharmacokinetic (PK) study for another randomized control trial.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional bowel disorder, being present in approximately 10% of adult Europoid population. The etiology of IBS is elusive. Literature indicates that modification of patients´colonic microbiota might ameliorate the condition. Here we test an intervention by faecal microbiota transplantation of artificially inflated microbiome diversity, versus autoclaved placebo.
This is a Phase IV, open-label, single-center, proof-of-concept, pilot study to evaluate the effect of Lactibiane Tolerance® in treating leaky gut in IBS-D patients. 30 consecutive patients with IBS-D and an increased intestinal permeability assessed by 51Cr-EDTA or 99mTc-DTPA will receive the multistrain probiotic Lactibiane Tolerance® 10 billion CFU 1 capsule twice a day (30 minutes before breakfast and 30 minutes before dinner) for 30 days treatment. At the end of treatment, patients will repeat intestinal permeability assessment by 51Cr-EDTA or 99mTc-DTPA.
Children 1-12 years presenting/admitted with acute diarrhea will be enrolled in the study after taking informed consent from the parents. Patients will be randomly allocated to two equal groups. Group A (GA) will receive anti secretory 1.5mg/kg/dose, three doses in 24 hours along with oral rehydration, while Group B (GB) will receive a single dose of bovine immunoglobulins. Response to treatment will be assessed by recording the frequency of loose stools after 72 hrs. Data will be collected through a structured proforma.
This study will test the safety, effectiveness, and feasibility of a treatment called fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) to reduce the symptoms of ICI-related diarrhea. FMT uses a liquid preparation of stool collected from a healthy donor with normal (healthy) bacteria; this liquid is infused into the small or large intestine of a recipient during a colonoscopy procedure. The study researchers think that the healthy bacteria in the transplanted stool will grow and replace the unhealthy bacteria and return the intestines and colon of the recipient to a healthy state.
This study will assess the long-term safety of oral Eluxadoline administered to pediatric participants with IBS-D who have completed study intervention in the Phase 2 study 3030-202-002 or the Phase 3 study 3030-303-002.
Due to the high incidence, cancer and the concomitant presence of malnutrition are currently a worldwide public health problem. The loss of weight and body tissues is a common condition in cancer patients with lesions of the airways and digestive tract and is related to anorexia and the presence and duration of gastrointestinal symptoms, such as diarrhea. The latter directly interferes with the progression of enteral diets, which are administered in order to provide adequate nutritional support for the recovery of patients and nutritional status. In this sense, the importance of measures to help reduce diarrhea episodes is reinforced, aiming at the adequate infusion of enteral diets and, consequently, nutritional needs. It is known that the use of antimicrobials is closely related to the increased incidence of nasocomial diarrhea, as it facilitates colonization by pathogenic bacteria, such as Clostridium difficile. In addition, nosocomial diarrhea is a very relevant occurrence due to the financial burden it causes for the hospital institution, which can also worsen the patient's clinical condition, since he is weakened due to the underlying disease. Despite these important aspects, studies carried out with the aim of reducing diarrhea episodes in patients with airway and digestive lesions are still not described in the literature. In this context, the use of symbiotics presents itself as a possibly beneficial alternative, considering the role of probiotics and prebiotics in the modulation of intestinal function. In this sense, this work aims to evaluate the impact of perioperative supplementation with symbiotic on clinical outcomes and intestinal function of patients with colon cancer and digestive airways undergoing colorectal resection. It is assumed that the use of symbiotics could have better results than the use of probiotics and isolated prebiotics.
