Filter by:The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate whether a probiotic supplement improves gastrointestinal (GI) function.
A phase Ⅲ, multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo and active comparator clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of Motireb 5/100 mg in functional dyspepsia patients.
Patients with indigestion were often found in gastroenterology clinic, those who about 20 % was caused by organic, while the rest of patients are showed abnormal inspection, and these are so called functional dyspepsia. Functional dyspepsia is a chronic and repeated occurrence of digestive disorders, patients often visit hospitals frequently and unable to get fully cured. Current Symptom diagnoses are based on Rome III criteria as diagnostic criteria. Although functional dyspepsia condition should combine with physical and mental treatments, due to the reasons behind the complex, there is still no effective classification could be acted in health education and drug intervention.
This is a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study in healthy volunteers. In the first part, the duodenum of the participants will be perfused with acid or saline, during which intragastric pressure will be monitored to assess activation of the duodenogastric reflex. After perfusion, duodenal biopsies will be collected to evaluate mucosal integrity. In the second part, healthy volunteers are treated with the mast cell stabilizer disodium cromoglycate or with a placebo during 14 days. Subsequently, the duodenum will be perfused with acid and intragastric pressure and mucosal integrity will be evaluated.
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is a global health problem as it is associated with peptic ulcers, chronic gastritis, duodenitis, and stomach cancer. Therefore, the eradication of the pathogen is of critical importance to reduce H. pylori-related complications . However, due to increasing antibiotic resistance, eradication of Helicobacter pylori has become more challenging. With a great decline in the eradication rate of standard triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori to below 70% in many countries. Treatment with triple therapy, which is the most frequently recommended, fails to eradicate H. pylori in approximately 20% of cases .
Functional dyspepsia is a very common disorder of great challenge to clinical management. A therapeutic targets is up-regulation of visceral pain threshold. The transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a novel therapy that pursues these properties, besides its safety and easy adherence. There is a great need of new treatments for functional dyspepsia. There is no current study evaluating tDCS for this disease.
The prevalence of H. pylori infection in Pakistan is unknown and investigators want to assess it in dyspeptic patients utilizing UBT. At the same time investigators want to validate UBT sensitivity and specificity in Pakistani patients
Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a heterogeneous disorder with multifactorial pathophysiology. Patients with FD have visceral hypersensitivity to mechanical and chemical stimuli. Several previous studies have described an increased chemosensitivity to oral capsaicin ingestion. Capsaicin is a natural agonist of TRPV-1 receptors present on afferent sensory neurons. Activation of the TRPV-1 receptor by capsaicin or other agonists results in the release of several neuropeptides (i.e. substance P, somatostatin). Besides, increased duodenal permeability and disruption of tight junction structure in FD patients compared to healthy volunteers has been reported in a recent study. In this observational study investigators will evaluate the role of the TRPV-1 neuropeptide pathway in patients with functional dyspepsia and healthy controls.
Functional dyspepsia might have impaired gastric mucosal dysfunction and Puyuanhewei may be helpful to improve the symptoms of FD.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of acupuncture on functional dyspepsia compared with sham control. The study aims to clarify the mechanism of acupuncture by assessing functional magnetic resonance imaging and metabolomics.
