Gut bacteria in people with liver cirrhosis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at the bacteria in the gut of people with liver cirrhosis to better understand how they relate to the disease. By joining, you help researchers learn more about cirrhosis, which may lead to better care in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at the gut microbiome (the helpful bacteria in your gut) and muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with liver cirrhosis. It may help researchers understand what changes in the gut and body can go along with getting weaker, so better treatments can be developed.
This trial studies whether transferring healthy gut bacteria (from a donor sample) can improve outcomes for people with liver cirrhosis who have worsening complications. It may help by changing the gut microbiome, which can influence inflammation and liver health.
This study looks at the types of germs (bacteria or viruses) that cause infections in people who have cirrhosis from Hepatitis B. The goal is to learn which germs are common, so doctors can better treat or prevent such infections in the future.
This trial tests whether transplanting healthy gut bacteria (from donor stool) can improve outcomes in people with cirrhosis. If you have mild to moderate cirrhosis, you may be able to join.
This study tests remote monitoring for people with liver cirrhosis. Instead of always coming to the clinic, you may use tools at home to track your health, which could make managing your condition easier.
This study looks at how gut bacteria change in people with liver cirrhosis and whether these changes relate to how the disease progresses. It may help find new ways to monitor or treat cirrhosis.
