Filter by:The MA-PPING is a multicenter prospective observational study that includes patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal cancer. The study aims to map the oral and gut microbiome of patients diagnosed with pancreatic, esophageal or colorectal cancer during their surgical patient journey from the moment of diagnosis until full recovery (three months after surgery).
This clinical trial was conducted as part of the "Methods for Evaluating the Improvement of Gastrointestinal Function in Health Food" announced by the Department of Health, DOH (currently known as Ministry of Health and Welfare, MOHW) on the test article, "Vigiis 101-LAB powder (Capsules)", manufactured by SunWay Biotech Co., Ltd.
This clinical trial will compare stool and oral microbiome composition between infants fed breast milk or one of two infant formulas for a 60 day feeding period.
This is a pilot feasibility study designed to investigate the alterations in the gut microbiome that occur during the course of treatment for colorectal cancer
Vigiis 101-LAB capsules I and II are produced from the fermentation of Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei NTU 101. Investigators have examined the effects of the Vigiis 101-LAB capsules I or II (5 or 10 billion CFU/day, respectively) on gut microflora in clinical trial 1, and on peristalsis, related immunity, and anti-oxidative capacity in clinical trial 2, during a 4-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, adaptive-design study.
This study seeks to correlate microbiome sequencing data with information provided by patients and their medical records.
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease is the most common cause of chronic liver diseases. The benign non-alcoholic fatty liver, characterized by excessive fat accumulation, can evolve into non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver cancer. The recommendation nowadays is a lifestyle change with physical exercise and diet to reduce liver fat and improve inflammation. Besides this, a leaky gut and dysbiosis have an impact on the liver, and exercise ameliorates the diversity of gut microbiota and permeability of the intestine. The aim of this study is to find out a link between exercise and the gut-liver axis regarding the stage of liver adiposity and define exercise-responsive gut microbiome in NAFLD patients
This research project aims to provide the scientific findings about the beneficial effects of okara (soybean pulp) consumption on gut and glycaemic health in middle-aged and older individuals in Singapore. In addition, it aims to examine the health promoting impact of bio-transformed okara in this population. We hypothesise that consuming a habitual diet with an okara (untreated or bio-transformed) incorporated food product will improve the gut microbiome composition and will increase the production of short chain fatty acids when compared to a same diet with no okara. Okara-based food product can also improve the glycaemic response in individuals compared to a product without okara in meal tolerance test (acute).
The interplay between diet and the gut microbiota has been implicated in the onset of cardiovascular disease. The gut microbiota displays diurnal rhythms, which may be influenced by meal timing. This study aimed to investigate the effect of main meal consumption timing on the microbiota and the cardiometabolic factors of the host using a cross-over RCT in healthy adults The main outcome measurements will be: a) changes in gut microbiota composition based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and shotgun metagenomics, b) changes in bacterial functional capacity) and urinary/faecal metabolomics, c) changes in targeted bacterial metabolites, d)Inflammatory markers The aim of this study is to explore the effect of the timing of main meal consumption on gut microbiota and immune response in healthy adults.
This is a prospective, observational clinical cohort study involving 100 mothers and their very preterm infants born at less than 32 weeks gestation. The purpose of this study is to gain a thorough understanding of the microbiome (the collection of microbes in a biological site) establishment in very preterm infants. The study will also examine the perinatal factors associated with the pattern of microbiome development, the metabolome and immune development of this population in the first months of life. All participants will be recruited from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Foothills Medical Centre (FMC) in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Premature birth (birth before 37 weeks of pregnancy) occurs in about one in ten pregnancies each year. Babies that are born after less than 32 weeks of pregnancy are considered to be very premature babies. When babies are born very prematurely their gut is not as developed. One important factor in gut health is the large community of microbes (tiny living things such as bacteria) that live on the human body called the microbiome. Recent studies have shown that premature babies are more likely to have changes in their gut microbiome that are associated with health issues. However, sciences has not yet discovered what specific microbiome features are involved in development of premature babies. Therefore, this study examines the impact of very premature birth on the premature baby's microbiome. The kind of microbes that make up the microbiome in the gut in the first months of life have a major impact on the microbiome that will form during childhood. There are many environmental factors during pregnancy, birth and in first months of life that can impact the microbiome development. These factors include diet, exposure to antibiotics, surgical procedures, and birth mode. This study will investigate how these factors influence the types of early microbes present in preterm infants. The hypothesis of the study is that specific microbial patterns, trajectories and/or metabolites will be significantly associated with single or a combination of perinatal maternal and/or infant factors. The primary objective of the study is to learn more about the development of the microbiome in very premature babies in the first months of their life. To do this, participating baby's stool and urine samples will be studied. A secondary objective of the study is to find out how environmental factors impact the development of the microbiome and the health of preterm infants. In order to do this, maternal microbiome samples will be studied and information regarding maternal health, nutrition and environment during pregnancy will be collected. As well, information about the birth and health of participating preterm neonates will be collected.
