CBT therapy for eating anxiety in functional stomach pain
This trial tests an “exposure-based” type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people with functional dyspepsia (stomach discomfort after eating) who avoid or restrict food. The goal is to reduce food fear and improve eating and weight, after other medical causes have been ruled out.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05501028Enrolling by invitation
Audio-recorded gut symptom interview to help diagnose FGIDs
This trial uses natural-language conversations (spoken interactions) to improve how clinicians evaluate and diagnose functional gastrointestinal disorders, a group of conditions that affect the gut. If you are scheduled for a GI clinic visit or a diagnostic endoscopy, your recorded responses may help build better evaluation tools.

GI symptom registry for adults with functional bowel issues
This study is a registry (a way to collect health information) for adults with certain long-term “functional” gastrointestinal (GI) problems. It may help doctors better understand these conditions and improve future treatments.

Tube-fed children at high risk for aspiration pneumonia
This Phase 4 study looks at gastrointestinal movement (dysmotility) and how it may increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia in children who eat through a tube and have swallowing safety problems. It may help doctors better prevent lung infections in children who cough/choke and need suction often.
