First seen Apr 19, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study looks at the gut microbiome (the collection of bacteria in your digestive system) in people who developed irritable bowel syndrome after an infection. Researchers will compare their gut bacteria to those who had an infection but no IBS, and to healthy people. The goal is to find specific bacteria patterns linked to the disease, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
