Gut bacteria mystery: 200 patients to help uncover hidden cause of stomach pain
NCT ID NCT01822470
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 200 people with ongoing stomach discomfort (functional dyspepsia) to find out how often they have small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Researchers will compare two methods—growing bacteria in a lab and DNA testing—to identify which germs are present. The goal is to better understand SIBO and improve diagnosis, not to test a new treatment.
