Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the gastro-intestinal biopotentials recorded with a homemade device using surface electrodes placed on the abdomen in healthy volunteers, Crohn's disease patients without fibrosis, Crohn's disease patients with fibrosis and in functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is there any differences in the gastro-intestinal biopotentials between the different populations under study? It aims to answer two secondary questions: - Are the gastro-intestinal biopotentials comparable to the Harvey-Bradshaw Index, MRI and biological data for patients with Crohn's disease? - Are the gastro-intestinal biopotentials comparable to Rome IV criteria for functional gastrointestinal disorders patients? Participants will undertake two recordings made with the device. The first one will last 1 hour and 30 minutes and will occurs while the participants are fasting. Then, the participants will eat a standardized meal. Finally, the second recording will take place after the meal ingestion and will last 1 hour and 30 minutes while the participants are in postprandial state.
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of improving gut health in terms of frequency of bowel movements in newly born infants fed with Feihe investigational formula product containing probiotics fortified with hydrolyzed hey protein. The main question it aims to answer is: - whether the frequency of bowel movements (through 12 months) of participants in the study product arm is significantly better than participants assigned in the other two arms. 240 qualified participants will be randomized to 3 arms (investigational formula, control formula, and breast-feeding) to consume assigned formula or breast-feeding for 12 months according to protocol. There will be up to 6 site visits arranged for each participant during the study, and all relevant clinical and questionnaire data, including the most important primary outcome - frequency of bowel movements through 12 months, will be captured, recorded and entered to CMTS (Clinical Management Trial System) for statistical analysis and reporting. Researchers will compare the three arms to validate the assumption that the consumption of Feihe investigational formula product containing probiotics fortified with hydrolyzed hey protein will improve gut health in newly born infants, along with physical development.
Anti-Tuberculosis Treatment (ATT) is one of the effective treatments of tuberculosis but the use of drugs for a long time put an adverse effect on the gut and other organs of the body. Nutraceuticals are the cheapest natural sources with therapeutic effects. These natural medicines help in alleviating gastrointestinal disturbances. This study will be conducted to overcome gastrointestinal issues with the help of nutraceuticals, which are more acceptable by the majority and have no side effects.
In this trial, the investigators aim to assess impact of goat milk-based infant formula on the severity and frequency of gastrointestinal symptoms, as well as other associated symptoms, and the health-related quality of life in infants exhibiting symptoms possibly related to cow's milk, compared to a cow milk-based formula.
Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) are the third most abundant class of nutrients in human milk. Studies investigating the effects of dietary HMOs in infants have shown various health and developmental benefits such as the development of the early gut microbiome (by favouring colonisation of beneficial Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Bacteroides), the development of the immune system, general infant growth, protection against infectious diseases and allergies, and stimulation of cognitive development. Only a limited number of studies have been conducted in adults, showing intake of HMOs stimulates the growth of gut Bifidobacterium in healthy adults.
A 'digital-first' approach is currently under implementation in several Swedish regions. The principles behind implementing an online service as an access way to primary care are based on an expectation that it can make access easier, direct people to appropriate levels of care, and increase both availability of heath care and cost efficiency. However, a recent Swedish report concluded that digital triage in primary care has not been investigated in a clinical real-world setting, including real patients, meaning that the benefits and risks for patients as well as on a system level remain unclear. The aim of this trial is to study the feasibility of a larger trial that will compare digital triage and traditional telephone triage on adherence to triaged health care level, in a randomized controlled study (feasibility study, RCT). The study will recruit a total of 120 patients, of which half will be randomized to telephone triage and half to digital triage.
Aim of study: Primary Outcomes: Patients with ulcerative colitis-associated upper gas- trointestinal inflammation may require specific treat- ment for the gastroduodenal lesions. Hence, recogni- tion and detection of the upper gastrointestinal lesions are important. Here we describe 2 cases of ulcerative colitis and summarize the results of our investigation of the prevalence of upper gastrointestinal involvement detected by esophagogastroduodenoscopy. We also analyzed the macroscopic and microscopic features of the upper gastrointestinal lesions Secondary Outcomes: correct and timely treatment of upprt GIT lesions in UC .
In a prospective observational cohort study (n = 100), the investigators aim to assess the correlation between cardiac biomarkers, advanced echocardiography and cystic fibrosis genotype and severity and determine whether these are prognostic markers of heart disease in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the prevalence and characteristics of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) in at risk infants (former preterm infants and those with birth asphyxia) during the first 2 years of life. The main questions it aims to answer are: - evaluate the prevalence of symptoms related to gastro-esophageal reflux (GER), of functional gastrointestinal disorders during the first 2 years of life - describe growth parameters during follow-up up to the corrected age of 2 years Participants will be assessed clinically and with a structured questionnaire based on the Rome IV criteria to describe FGID.
At present, whether the hepatitis B vaccine (HBV) can be vaccinated on time after neonatal surgery has become a common problem for children's families, neonatal surgeons, and vaccination departments, but there are few relevant studies at home and abroad, and there is no corresponding guide or consensus. In the early stage, our research team investigated the vaccination plans of the vaccination units in the main urban areas of Chongqing for such children through telephone follow-up, and found that the practices of each unit were different, all based on their own experience, and there was no clear evidence to support the vaccination or should not be vaccinated, which may cause some children to miss the best vaccination time or increase the risk of vaccination. The center is a relatively large neonatal surgery center in southwest China. The diagnosis and treatment of neonatal digestive tract malformations is at the leading level in China. It can carry out various neonatal operations such as neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, congenital anorectal malformations, and congenital megacolon. On average, it carries out more than 30 third and fourth grade neonatal gastrointestinal operations every month. It has accumulated a lot of experience in the follow-up of newborns, There is a large amount of clinical data support for children who need to be vaccinated after surgery, so it is planned to follow up the second and third doses of hepatitis B vaccine and whether there are adverse reactions related to vaccination for children who need to be vaccinated after gastrointestinal surgery in the neonatal period, and at the same time check the production of HBsAb after vaccination, The immune response and adverse reactions of hepatitis B vaccine at different time points after surgery were studied to increase clinical evidence for the determination of hepatitis B vaccine vaccination program for newborns after surgery.
