Filter by:Background: Reliable patient reported outcome measures (PROM's) for symptom assessment in functional dyspepsia (FD) are essential in order to evaluate dyspeptic symptoms, identify potential symptom triggers and optimize therapeutic strategies, since biological markers are unavailable. Currently used symptom assessment methods, i.e. end-of-day or end-of-week questionnaires, have considerable limitations. The Experience Sampling Method (ESM), an electronic questioning method characterized by random and repeated, momentary assessments in the subject's current state and environment, might overcome these limitations. The aim of this study is to assess the validity and reliability of an FD-specific electronic patient-reported outcome measure (ePRO), based on the Experience Sampling Method-principle, for symptom assessment and identification of symptom triggers in patients with functional dyspepsia. Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the validity and reliability of an FD-specific electronic patient-reported outcome measure (ePRO), based on the Experience Sampling Method-principle, for symptom assessment and identification of symptom triggers in patients with functional dyspepsia. In order to measure this, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, concurrent validity and the accuracy to differentiate between dyspeptic patients and healthy controls of the developed ePRO will be assessed. In addition, to objectify specific triggers for the onset of gastrointestinal symptoms in dyspepsia, using the FD-specific ESM tool.
The primary hypothesis of the present study is that supplementation with the Upset Stomach Relief test product will reduce the severity of the symptoms of occasional indigestion and heartburn.
Digestive Functional Disorders (DFD), represent 50% of medical check ups, the symptoms interfere with patients quality of life and generate high health costs. On the other hand, with the worldwide overweight and obesity increase,causing an over production of low-calorie products, which increase the non-caloric sweeteners (NCS) consumption. Hypothesis: A diet without NCS will reduce gastrointestinal symptoms in volunteers with dyspepsia and IBS. Objective: To asses the effect of a diet without NCS, on the gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with dyspepsia and IBS. Secondary Objectives: To compare the effect of a diet without NCS against a diet with NCS on anthropometry, changes in body composition, biochemical parameters, glucose and insulin. To asses the change in the gut microbiota using real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) Methodology: it will be an experimental, open, parallel, controlled study lasting 12 weeks, patients with dyspepsia or IBS will be randomized assigned to a diet with or without NCS. Laboratory studies, dietary and symptoms questionnaires, anthropometry measurements and faecal sample will be carried out. Analysis Results: A double data capture will be carried out to minimize errors, for the statistical analysis of using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25, descriptive statistics will be used to report the baseline data of the volunteers. Using means and standard deviation, the variables of gastrointestinal symptoms will be used a chi-square test and a p <0.05 will be considered significant. Different analyzes will be done to evaluate volunteers with IBS and those with dyspepsia. For the intestinal microbiota analysis, a comparison will be made between the percentages of Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria of sample 1 and 2 and a chi-square test will be performed considering a p <0.05 significant
This is a prospective, randomized, double - blind study of 474 male and female volunteers with dyspeppsia diagnosed at the Oswaldo Cruz University Hospital Gastroenterology Outpatient Clinic from March 2025 to March 2027. Hypothesis: As a non-inferiority study, the hypothesis is that the use of oral Aroeira (Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi) for the treatment of participants diagnosed with functional dyspepsia efficacy not inferior to therapy based on the use of omeprazole.
This study evaluates four different meals and how they induce gastrointestinal symptoms in children with functional dyspepsia. All subjects will receive each meal and rate their gastrointestinal symptoms during each meal.
Background. Abdominal distention is produced by an abnormal somatic postural tone. We developed an original biofeedback technique based on electromyography-guided control of abdominothoracic muscular activity. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial we demonstrated the superiority of biofeedback over placebo for the treatment of abdominal distention. However, the technique is technically complex and unpractical. Aim. To prove the efficacy of a simplified biofeedback technique for the treatment of abdominal distension. Selection criteria. Visible abdominal distension after meal ingestion; patients are able to identify the offending meal. Intervention. Patients will be randomized into biofeedback in placebo groups.Three sessions of either biofeedback or placebo intervention will be performed 30 min after ingestion of the offending meal during the first 3 weeks of the intervention period. Biofeedback: patients will be taught to control abdominal and thoracic muscular activity by providing a visual display of the abdominal and thoracic perimeter; specifically, they will be instructed to reduce the abdominal perimeter (girth); patients will be instructed to perform the same exercises before and after breakfast, lunch and dinner during the 4-week intervention period. Placebo: abdominal and thoracic perimeter will be recorded but not shown to the patient and a pill of placebo containing 0.5 g glucose will be administered; patients will be instructed to take a pill of placebo before breakfast, lunch and dinner during the 4-week intervention period. Primary Outcome Measure: Effect of the probe meal on the activity of thoraco-abdominal muscles (intercostals, external oblique, internal oblique, upper rectus, lower rectus) measured by electromyography before and after the probe meal. The response to the probe meal will be measured before and after treatment. Secondary Outcome Measures: - Effect of the probe meal on sensation of abdominal distension measured by 0-6 scales after the probe meal. - Changes in girth produced by the probe meal measured using a non-stretch belt placed over the umbilicus before and after the probe meal. - Sensation of abdominal distension measured by 0-6 scales after each meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) over a 7-day clinical evaluation period before and during the 4th week of the intervention.
Single-site prospective interventional study aiming to demonstrate the effect of spore-forming probiotics on dyspeptic symptoms and blood, saliva and stool parameters in FD patients with and without acid suppression, compared to placebo.
This study was conducted to prove the efficacy of BST-104 in patients with mild to moderate FD.
In this study, diffusion tensor imaging（DTI）technique was used to evaluate the brain microstructures and connective white matter microstructures in patients with refractory FD, resting fMRI was used to evaluate the functional connectivity between hemispheres, and neuroimaging changes after antidepressant intervention were observed to explore the activation patterns of resting brain homeostasis-receptive network areas in patients with refractory FD. We aimed to explore microstructure of white matter and gray matter and functional connectivity between hemispheres to explain the therapeutic mechanism of antidepressants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and validity of Aolanti Weipang Tablets in Patients with Postprandial Discomfort Syndrome of Functional Dyspepsia
