Gut and mouth microbiome study for Korean IBD patients and their family
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut and mouth to understand more about inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It compares patients with their close family members who do not have IBD to see what might be different.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows people who have a parent, sibling, or child with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis to help understand why some family members develop the condition. If you are 14 or older and do not already have IBD, you may be able to join.
This study is gathering information from people with active Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, and from people without IBD. Researchers will look at samples from the colon to learn more about these conditions.
This study uses information from your gut bacteria (microbiome) to create personalized nutrition advice. It is for people with gut conditions like IBD, IBS, or celiac disease, as well as healthy volunteers.
This study looks at health records of children in Korea who have inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis) to understand their medical care, treatments, and healthcare use. Researchers are not testing a new drug—they're analyzing existing medical information to learn more about how these diseases are managed in children.
This study looks at the bacteria living in your body (the microbiome) in people with ankylosing spondylitis and their close family members. Researchers hope to better understand how these bacteria relate to the disease, which may lead to better treatments in the future.
This study looks at how changes in gut bacteria (the microbiome) relate to inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease. It may help researchers understand what might improve symptoms or disease control.
