NCT ID NCT05934188
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This observational study looks at how gut bacteria relate to brain structure and function in healthy aging and in people with early Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or multiple sclerosis. Researchers will use brain scans, stool samples, blood tests, and cognitive assessments in 200 participants. The goal is to find early markers that could help detect or understand these diseases better.
