Summary

This study gave 28 people with low tryptophan levels a special form of vitamin B3 (nicotinamide) for four weeks. Participants had either a serious respiratory infection (like pneumonia) or a chronic inflammatory condition (like inflammatory bowel disease). The goal was to measure how the body processes this vitamin, not to test a treatment. Patients could also report on their quality of life and fatigue.
