Gastrointestinal Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Study of Environmental Enteropathy and Malnutrition in Pakistan
Environmental Enteropathy (EE) is an acquired sub-clinical inflammatory gut condition in which alterations in intestinal structure, function, and local and systemic immune activation lead to impaired vaccine responses, decreased cognitive potential and undernutrition in low-middle income countries. Approximately half of all global deaths in children aged less than five years are attributable to undernutrition making the study of EE an area of critical priority. However, given the operational limitations and ethical considerations for safely obtaining intestinal biopsies from young children in low resource settings, there have been few detailed investigations of human intestinal tissue in this vulnerable patient group for whom reversal of EE would provide the greatest benefit. EE biomarkers have been studied in different settings but these have not been correlated with the gold standard histopathology confirmation. The Study of Environment Enteropathy and Malnutrition in Pakistan (SEEM Pakistan) is designed to better understand the pathophysiology, predictors, biomarkers, and potential management strategies of EE to inform strategies to eradicate this debilitating pathology.
