The Impact of Probiotic Intervention on the Gut Microbiota and Bowel Function
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Clostridium butyricum (live) Tablets(Meiya): Clostridium butyricum (live) Tablet administered into the dysfunctional intestine for low dose and high dose group, while control group has no intervention
Study summary
This study aims to propose a novel, easy-to-operate intervention strategy that effectively improves defecation function after stoma reversal and to assess its impact on the gut microbiota.The efficacy and safety of antegrade placement of probiotics into the distal deserted intestine during prophylactic stoma to improve bowel function after stoma reversal were evaluated through randomized controlled clinical trials.Observing the changes in gut microbiota during the prophylactic stoma period, the impact of probiotics on the structure of gut microbiota, and exploring the correlation between gut genera and bowel function after stoma reversal.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Low Anterior Resection Syndrome Score(LARS Score) — One month after stoma reversal
Comparison of LARS scores among the three groups at one month postoperatively. Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS) is characterized by major symptoms including difficulty defecating, urgency, incontinence of liquid stool, incontinence of flatus, and increased frequency of bowel movements. Based on severity, LARS can be classified as none (0-20 points), minor (21-29 points), or major (30-42 points) using LARS score. And higher scores mean a worse outcome. - microbial diversity — The first stool sample will be collected within one week before ISR surgery, and the second stool sample will be collected within three to five days after stoma reversal, upon the first bowel movement.
Fecal samples from study participants with ISR preoperatively and postoperatively will be collected to analyze the alpha and beta diversity of gut microbiota among the three groups
