Filter by:The goal of this randomized, crossover, clinical trial is to link: 1) gastrointestinal motility patterns induced by acute consumption of whole and refined grains, 2) enteric microbial production of bioactive metabolites, and 3) circulating postprandial appearance of metabolites important to cardiometabolic health including glucose, triglycerides, and cholesterol. Participants will be asked to consume a Smartpill monitoring device that records metrics of gastrointestinal motility in response to whole or refined grains, monitor cardiometabolic metabolties over an 8 hour postprandial window, and provide a fecal sample for microbiome-related analyses.
This interventional study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral capsule fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for treating hepatic encephalopathy refractory to conventional rifaximin and lactulose therapy in patients with liver cirrhosis. Patients diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy refractory to rifaximin and lactulose therapy will be randomized into three groups. While continuing conventional therapy, the first group receives FMT via colonoscopy and oral capsule administration, the second group receives only oral capsule administration, and the third group serves as a control, receiving only conventional therapy. The aims of the study are: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of FMT by oral capsules in cirrhotic patients with hepatic encephalopathy refractory to standard therapy. To evaluate changes in the gut microbiota composition and in the intestinal and systemic inflammatory condition occurring after FMT and if they can be associated with clinical improvement. To evaluate metabolic modifications occurring after FMT and if they can be associated with clinical improvement.
This trial will determine if a well-established probiotic, Vivomixx, can modulate maternal microbiota and ameliorate maternal environmental enteropathy which compromises growth in the first 1000 days. The probiotic Vivomixx has been used in many thousands of people including pregnant women, both within and outside a research context. This trial is the first in a proposed series of proof-of-concept intervention studies which are intended to provide data to enable a rational selection of interventions to be evaluated at scale in future large scale trials in which birth outcomes and postnatal growth will be key endpoints.
The aim of this study is to characterize the microbiome and assess fatigue and cognition of patients with cancer undergoing standard of care treatment.
Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients are exposed to catheter-related infections with an important morbidity. Catheter colonization is constant but infection is not. Cutaneous dysbiosis could be the missing link. Our study aims to evaluate the evolution of cutaneous microbiota in ICU patients with a central venous catheter in place, through metagenomics. Our main objective is to evaluate the evolution of alpha-diversity, quantified by intra-patient variation of Shannon diversity index (a diversity index used in bacterial metagenomics).
This study will investigate the link between the gut microbiota, the occurrence of the central adiposity phenotype, and the patients' fear to regain weight in anorexia nervosa.
Researchers are doing this study to find out if a high fermented food diet is tolerable, and if it will help improve quality of life after surviving a critical illness, including severe COVID-19, by promoting gut health recovery and decreasing gut inflammation.
This randomized control trial study among Pre-exposure prophylactic users (PrEP) aims to learn and determine the efficacy of Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBRIT) in reducing the risk of alcohol use. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How alcohol use impacts the PrEP continuum and to understand how early intervention and treatment approach affects alcohol use and PrEP adherence. 2. Investigate the effectiveness of the SBIRT intervention in preventing hazardous alcohol use and its impact on gut dysbiosis in PrEP users. 3. To determine alterations in the gut microbiome (dysbiosis), intestinal homeostasis, systemic inflammation, and markers of liver disease associated with hazardous alcohol use among PrEP users.
The risk of cardiovascular diseases from red meat consumption varies among individuals due to variations in gut microbiota. L-carnitine in red meat can be converted to TMAO in the body by certain bacteria. Not everyone experiences a significant increase in TMAO levels after consuming carnitine. Gut microbiota differences are observed between high and low TMAO producers. The presence of the bbu gene in gut microbiota is linked to TMAO production. This clinical research aims to determine if the bbu gene can predict TMAO levels after carnitine intake.
In this study the investigators aim to test whether an evidence based probiotic is able to revert proton pump inhibitor induced dysbiosis of the gut microbiome.
