NCT ID NCT04872439
Summary
This study aims to discover new antibodies in the blood that might cause autoimmune gastrointestinal motility disorders, where the immune system mistakenly attacks nerves controlling digestion. Researchers will analyze blood samples from 300 patients who have unexplained, long-term digestive symptoms like severe constipation or gastroparesis. The goal is to identify specific biological markers that could lead to better diagnosis and understanding of these conditions.
