Understanding bowel control issues in Wolfram syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Digestive system, Ear, nose & throat, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how Wolfram syndrome affects bowel control (fecal incontinence). If you or your child have Wolfram syndrome, this research may help doctors better understand and manage this symptom.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your child must have a confirmed diagnosis of Wolfram syndrome.
- Your medical records must contain information about bowel control or fecal incontinence.
- You'll be asked to allow researchers to review your medical history for the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether botulinum toxin (Botox) injections into the rectum can improve bowel control in people with active fecal incontinence. It aims to help those who haven't gotten better with standard treatments like diet changes or pelvic floor therapy.
This trial tests a non-invasive biofeedback technique to help people regain control of bowel movements. It may be an option for those with frequent stool leakage or difficult constipation, but participants must not have certain other digestive or neurological conditions.
This study tests whether doing guided “biofeedback” exercises at home can improve problems with constipation/blocked feeling, fecal leaks, and/or urine leaks. It focuses on retraining the muscles used for toileting to help you empty more normally and have fewer accidents.
This trial studies whether Fecobionics can improve fecal incontinence (accidents with stool). It also looks at people with both “normal” and “abnormal” patterns of fecal incontinence to see who may benefit most.
This trial tests a treatment to strengthen the muscles that control bowel movements in people with weak anal sphincters. It may help those who have trouble holding in stool or gas.
This study looks at how normal bowel movements work, and what goes wrong in people with long-term constipation. It may help researchers better understand constipation causes, which can guide future treatments.
