Trial summary

Several studies suggested that dysbacteriosis usually happened in patients with intestinal failure (IF). However, differences of microbiota diversity in small intestine stoma effluents and colonic faeces were rarely studies. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Intestinal Microbial Diversity of Small Bowel Stoma Effluent and Colonic Feces of Children With Short Bowel Syndrome

Several studies suggested that dysbacteriosis usually happened in patients with intestinal failure (IF). However, differences of microbiota diversity in small intestine stoma effluents and colonic faeces were rarely studies. Thus this study is aimed to investigate the microbiota compositions and differences of output of small intestine stoma and colon in pediatric IF patients. Fecal samples from IF patients. Each patient received fistula closure in our centre and fecal samples from both small intestinal stoma and colon were collected. Fecal microbial compositions were determined by high-throughput sequencing.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Microbiota diversity and composition clarified by 16s rRNA sequencing

    DNA of gut microbiota will be extracted. Then purified DNA amplicons are pooled in equimolar and paired-end sequenced (2 × 250) on an Illumina MiSeq platform. Raw Fastq files will be de-multiplexed, quality-filtered using QIIME (version 1.17). Operational taxonomic units (OTUs) will be next clustered with 97% similarity cutoff using UPARSE version 7.1 (http://drive5.com/ uparse/) and chimeric sequences will be identified and removed using UCHIME (http://drive5.com/index.htm). The phylogenetic affiliation of each 16S rRNA gene sequence is analyzed by RDP Classifier (http:// rdp.cme.msu.edu/) against the silva (SSU117/119)16S rRNA. Sobs index and Chao index will be used to evaluate the microbiota diversity. Microbiota composition will be identified on different levels including phylum, family and genus.

    Measured: 1)Samples collection: one day before patients are discharged from hospital; 2)DNA extraction: within one week after samples collection; 3)Sequencing and data analyzing: within one month after DNA extract

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intestinal Failure, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wei Cai, MD, PhD (caiw204@sjtu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Microbiota diversity and composition clarified by 16s rRNA sequencing (time frame: 1)Samples collection: one day before patients are discharged from hospital; 2)DNA extraction: within one week after samples collection; 3)Sequencing and data analyzing: within one month after DNA extract). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03590418, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Feb 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
