Filter by:Peppermint oil has shown to be effective in the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms in adults. Few studies of low quality are performed in an paediatric setting. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a multicenter randomized, placebo controlled trial to investigate the effects of an eight-week peppermint oil treatment in paediatric IBS or Functional Abdominal Pain - Not otherwise specified (FAP-NOS) patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if adult patients with IBS-C will report an overall greater improvement in IBS symptoms and quality of life when treated with a combination of linaclotide (standard of care medication) and immersive virtual reality (VR) therapy compared to those treated with linaclotide and sham (placebo) VR therapy.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common chronic gastrointestinal condition that affects approximately 10-20% of adults in Western countries. IBS is a disorder with chronic or recurrent colonic symptoms without a clear-cut etiology. This condition is characterized by chronic or recurrent ABDOMINAL PAIN, bloating, MUCUS in FECES, and an erratic disturbance of DEFECATION. Symptoms include cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea or constipation, or both. Over 80% of individuals with IBS report food-related symptoms leading in the 70% of these patients to self-imposed food restrictions and/or modifications of their diet. These spontaneous unsupervised dietary modifications are associated with maladaptive eating patterns and unnecessary self-restricted diets, which could result in nutritional deficiencies. BiOkuris product DDI-IBS-001 is a food multicomponents product based on BiOkuris proprietary chitin-glucan complex. The objectives of the VITABIOTIC study is to confirm the effectiveness of the DDI-IBS-001 product in improving global symptoms, abdominal pain, stool consistency, quality of life, anxiety and depression in IBS patients and to confirm the product's safety.
The purpose of this study is to learn the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) using stool from a donor with low proteolytic activity and containing the bacteria Alistipes putredinis in patients with post-infection irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS) and high proteolytic activity. Proteolytic activity is the breakdown of proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids.
The aim of the study to investigate effect of laser acupuncture on constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome in female patients
This study relies on the use of a smartphone application (SOMA) that the investigators developed for tracking daily mood, pain, and activity status in acute pain, chronic pain, and healthy controls over four months.The primary goal of the study is to use fluctuations in daily self-reported symptoms to identify computational predictors of acute-chronic pain transition, pain recovery, and/or chronic pain maintenance or flareups. The general study will include anyone with current acute or chronic pain, while a smaller sub-study will use a subset of patients from the chronic pain group who have been diagnosed with chronic low back pain, failed back surgery syndrome, or fibromyalgia. These sub-study participants will first take part in one in-person EEG testing session while completing simple interoception and reinforcement learning tasks and then begin daily use of the SOMA app. Electrophysiologic and behavioral data from the EEG testing session will be used to determine predictors of treatment response in the sub-study.
This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of a single probiotic strain on symptom severity in adults with diarrhea-predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-D).
The study aim is to investigate the Bio-electrical Impedance (BIA) parameters in general, and phase angle (PhA) in particular in Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients and to compare these with values from healthy controls, while assessing the relationship with other confounding parameters in IBS: psychological parameters, physical activity, dietary pattern (with special interest in FODMAP intake). In a second phase, the evolution of the BIA parameters will be analyzed according to response to therapy.
Participants will be given FMT through oral capsules or nasojejunal tube once a month. After three-time treatment, participants were followed up for three months. Participants complete specific scales to assess improvement in symptoms, emotion and quality of life. Besides, they report adverse effects and collect fecal samples at each visit.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test efficacy of the REACH program in parents with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and their young children. The main question it aims to answer is: -How can parents with IBS help their young kids develop healthy habits? Participants will be asked to complete online surveys and to use a website. Researchers will compare results from parents who use one of two websites chosen by chance, like flipping a coin. One website focuses on child health and safety behaviors. The other website focuses on strategies to promote child wellness behaviors.
