Study for blood-flow problems in the intestines
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows adults with intestinal blood-flow problems (from artery or vein issues) to better understand these conditions. It may help doctors plan future diagnosis and treatments for people with sudden or long-lasting intestinal ischemia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You have a diagnosis of intestinal blood-flow trouble (from artery or vein problems)
- Your symptoms match either sudden intestinal ischemia or long-lasting intestinal ischemia
- You are able and willing to take part in research (you did not refuse)
- You can undergo an abdominal CT scan with contrast (injected contrast), if needed for the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking for signs in the body (called biomarkers) after sudden loss of blood flow to the intestines. It involves getting a CT scan to check what is happening in the abdomen so the researchers can see which signals match intestinal injury.
This trial tests whether taking oral antibiotics (gentamicin and metronidazole) can treat acute mesenteric ischemia caused by an artery blockage, instead of using IV antibiotics. It's for people who don't need emergency surgery and don't have a serious infection.
This study looks at markers for mesenteric artery disease, a condition that affects blood flow to the intestines. It aims to improve diagnosis for people who may have this problem.
This study looks at ways to promote early diagnosis of chronic mesenteric ischemia, a condition where the intestines don’t get enough blood over time. If you’re being evaluated for this problem, the trial may help ensure the right diagnosis happens sooner.
This study tests a blood marker for chronic mesenteric ischemia (poor blood flow to the gut). If it works, it could help doctors diagnose the condition faster and more easily.
This study looks at how blood flows through the main vein of the liver (portal vein) in people with chronic narrowing of the gut's blood vessels. It may help doctors understand why some people get belly pain after eating.
