Summary
This study tested whether taking fecal transplants (FMT) in capsules could reduce gut inflammation in people with HIV who are on antiretroviral therapy (ART) but have a low CD4/CD8 ratio. Twenty participants received either FMT or placebo capsules twice, three weeks apart. Researchers measured changes in gut permeability and inflammation to see if FMT could improve immune function.
