Biomarkers to predict acute mesenteric ischemia
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is looking for biomarkers (clues in your blood) that can help doctors predict acute mesenteric ischemia, a condition where blood flow to your gut is suddenly blocked. It may help find better ways to diagnose this serious condition early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- Your doctor has decided to do more tests for possible mesenteric ischemia (reduced blood flow to your gut).
- You do not have chronic (long-term) mesenteric ischemia without a sudden, severe episode.
- You or your family have not asked to stop tests or treatment.
- You were not diagnosed with acute mesenteric ischemia at another hospital or during surgery without being considered for it first.

This trial is testing a new way to use CT scans to identify which parts of the bowel can still be saved in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia. It aims to help doctors make better decisions about whether surgery is needed.
This study helps doctors better predict and understand a serious condition where the bowel doesn't get enough blood flow while patients are in the ICU. By identifying warning signs early, the research aims to improve diagnosis and treatment decisions.
This pilot study looks at markers in your blood that might help doctors tell if you have a serious bowel condition called acute mesenteric ischemia. You may be asked to participate if you have severe belly pain and need a special CT scan to check for this condition.
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 study looks at how acute mesenteric ischemia (a condition where blood flow to the intestine is suddenly reduced) and its treatment affect quality of life. It aims to understand the long-term effects on patients treated between 2010 and 2022.
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.
