Gut Bacteria Study in Post-Infectious IBS
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how gut bacteria may change in people who developed irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) after a stomach infection. Researchers hope to understand why some people recover completely while others develop ongoing digestive problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 measures how your diet affects the bacteria in your gut. It is for healthy adults and people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to see if certain foods change gut bacteria differently.
This study collects stool samples and health information to help develop a new test that may tell the difference between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). If you have not been diagnosed with a chronic gut disorder, you may be able to join.
This study compares the bacteria and natural chemicals in the intestines of people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to those without it. It aims to find differences that could help improve IBS diagnosis or treatment.
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) and how they relate to your IBS symptoms. It may help researchers understand IBS better and could lead to new treatments.
This study checks how sensitive your gut is to normal stimuli in people with IBS, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and in healthy volunteers. Results may help researchers understand why some people feel more abdominal discomfort and how that connects to inflammatory bowel conditions.
