Summary

This study looks at whether certain gut bacteria help the remaining intestine absorb nutrients better after surgery for short bowel syndrome. Researchers will follow 15 adults who are having surgery to reconnect their small intestine and colon. They will measure how well the intestine absorbs food and analyze stool samples to see if changes in gut bacteria are linked to better absorption.
