Filter by:This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of heterologous fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) by Standardized Quantitative multi-donor Intestinal Microbiota Capsule (SQIMC-md) in mild-moderate ulcerative colitis patients who fail to achieve clinical remission over 4 weeks after full dose 5-Aminosalicylic acid(5-ASA). Intestinal microbiota transplant for FMT will be prepared from multiple healthy donors and prepared by standardized procedure with fixed quantitative dosage. This strategy might offer a novel and safe therapeutic approach for these patients before step up to corticosteroid, immunosuppressant or biologics therapy.
The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Beta-1,3/1,6-D-Glucan from mycelium extract of Ganoderma lucidum on ulcerative colitis
This pilot study aims to evaluate the effect of a 16-week duration of multistrain probiotic product (De Simone Fomulation (DSF), previously known as VSL#3 and now available as Vivomixx in EU and Visbiome in USA to reduce anxiety and depression scores in mild to moderate active UC. It has been known that gut microbiota is associated with IBD and mental health. In addition, IBD patients complicated with psychiatric disorders are rising more and more attention. Further, a recent study "Probiotic Bifidobacterium longum NCC3001 Reduces Depression Scores and Alters Brain Activity: A Pilot Study in Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome" was published in Gastroenterology in 2017, thus we wonder if DSF have an effect on the depression/anxiety in patients with UC)A total of 60 patients will be randomly allocated into two groups, group A will receive standard medical therapy plus placebo (4 sachets/day,), and group B will receive standard medical therapy plus DSF (each sachet containing 450 billion CFU, eight bacterial strains 4 sachets/day) for 16 weeks. The primary endpoint is the reduction of anxiety and depression scores after treatment (at 8 weeks and 16 weeks) using hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). The secondary endpoints including clinical response after 8-week and 16-week treatment (measured by a ≥3-point reduction in a Simple Clinical Colitis Activity Index (SCCAI) score at 16 weeks), and clinical remission (defined as SCCAI score ≤5 at 8 weeks and 16 weeks). Changes in fecal-associated microbiota by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and metabolomics using company service following probiotics therapy (at 16 weeks) were also assessed, stratified by both change in SCCAI score following probiotics therapy and randomization. Adverse events were evaluated at week 8 and 16 weeks by patient survey
The purpose of this study is to develop an artificial intelligence(AI) assisted scoring system, which can evaluate the disease severity and mucosal healing stage in patients with ulcerative colitis. Then testify whether this new scoring system can help physicians to enhance the accuracy of disease severity assessments in a multi-center clinical practice.
This is a primary prevention study which aims to assess reduction in the rate of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with high-risk diabetic feet using 3D printed insoles compared to standard care
The hypothesis of the study is that in ulcerative colitis repeated flares of inflammatory activity, as well as mechanisms involved in resolution of the inflammatory response, may contribute to accumulation of damage in the colon leading to functional disturbances and symptoms that affect patient's functioning. The primary objective is to determine whether ulcerative colitis induces permanent anatomical damage, by means of magnetic resonance imaging.
A prospective study to investigate the dynamic changes of gut microbiota through colonic transendoscopic enteral tubing in patients with ulcerative colitis after fecal microbiota transplantation.
The goal of the study is to assess the impact of treatment with dietary supplement containing Saccharomyces boulardii (used as an addition to standard therapy), on quality of life of patients with mild forms of ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease, as well as those in remission fulfilling criteria for irritable bowel syndrome. Patients included will be randomly assigned in two groups and subsequently administered with formulation containing Saccharomyces boulardii or placebo for 4 weeks. Patient's quality of life will be assessed by questionnaire at the enrolment and 4 weeks after initiating the therapy.
using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in healing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), and to compare the rate of healing and final outcome with conventional therapy.
This is a multicenter, prospective study of dose adjustment of golimumab in patients with ulcerative colitis who will initiate golimumab treatment (naïve to anti-TNF) or after failure (or exposure) to one anti-TNF, which aims to analyze serum golimumab levels and anti- golimumab antibody (ADA) levels during the induction (week 6) and maintenance phases (week 14, 30 and 54) and correlate them with efficacy parameters.
