Gut bacteria and belly pain in CIPO
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at the gut bacteria (microbiome) of children and young adults with CIPO who have a stoma, to see if there is a link with belly pain. It may help doctors understand why some people with CIPO have pain and could lead to better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at bacteria in your gut that may produce chemicals linked to ongoing pain in Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, even when the disease itself is not very active. Researchers want to understand why some people still have moderate to severe abdominal pain even after their inflammation has calmed down.
This study looks at how changes (mutations) in a gene called ACTG2 affect the muscles that move food through the gut in children and adults with a rare condition called pediatric intestinal pseudo-obstruction (PIPO). It may help researchers understand the condition better and find new ways to help patients.
This study uses a tiny capsule to collect samples from your small intestine to learn about gut bacteria in people with IBS or other functional gut disorders. It could help researchers understand what causes digestive symptoms.
This study looks at how certain foods and gut bacteria might trigger abdominal pain in people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). If you have IBS and frequent belly pain, you may help researchers understand the link between diet, bacteria, and pain.
This study looks at how often an endoscopy (a camera test to look inside the stomach and gut) finds a medical reason for long-term belly pain in children aged 6 to 18. It may help if your child has pain that does not go away and has worrying signs, or if treatments like acid-reducing medicine or diet changes have not worked.
This study looks at the gut bacteria in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) who have constipation and produce high levels of methane gas. It aims to understand how methane relates to symptoms and may guide future treatments.
