Brain imaging study for inflammatory bowel disease with depression
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain works in people who have both inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and depression. It uses brain scans to understand the connection, which may help improve treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You are right-handed.
- You have active inflammatory bowel disease, with a score that shows moderate to severe activity.
- You do not have severe or unstable health problems.
- You have not had brain surgery before.
- You can have an MRI scan (no metal implants or claustrophobia).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a brain-training technique called neurofeedback to see if it can help reduce chronic pain in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). If you have IBD and ongoing muscle or joint pain that isn't caused by inflammation, this trial might help you manage pain better.
This trial tests whether an anti-inflammatory diet can help people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Researchers want to see if this diet reduces inflammation and improves symptoms.
This study looks at how anxiety and depression affect people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. It aims to understand these connections to improve care and support for patients.
This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut (gut microbiome) may differ between people with IBD who also have depression and those who don't. It aims to help understand the link between gut health and mood.
This study explores how stress and mood changes affect irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) using brain imaging. Researchers will scan your brain and collect health information to understand the connection between your gut and mental health.
This study uses brain stimulation (TMS) customized for each person to treat IBS. It uses MRI scans to see how the brain responds, aiming to find better ways to predict who will benefit from this therapy.
