What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Compare the omics differences of the specimens between the experimental and control groups

    Apply 16S amplicon sequencing and shotgun sequencing technology to obtain microbial structure of the specimens. The differences of microbial structure will be compared between the experimental and control groups. Significance among multiple groups was tested using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by the least significant difference (LSD) post hoc test. Groups with different characters denoting a significant difference, while having the same character denotes p-value > 0.05 in LSD test.

    Measured: 2021.7.1-2026.12.30

  2. Compare the microbial feature differences of the specimens between the experimental and control groups

    Apply traditional culture technologies to validate and obtain human source bacteria.The differences of frequencies of probiotics will be compared between the experimental and control groups. Depending on the distribution of the variables, either the Mann-Whitney test or the unpaired Student's t-test was employed for quantitative variables. The Kruskal-Wallis test for mean values was used to evaluate non-parametric comparisons between participants in all groups. Significance among multiple groups was tested using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by the least significant difference (LSD) post hoc test. Groups with different characters denoting a significant difference, while having the same character denotes p-value > 0.05 in LSD test.

    Measured: 2021.7.1-2026.12.30

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Compare the health status differences between the experimental and control groups

    After a brief introduction to the survey, participants were asked to complete a questionnaire. The differences of health status will be compared between the experimental and control groups. Depending on the distribution of the variables, either the Mann-Whitney test or the unpaired Student's t-test was employed for quantitative variables. The Kruskal-Wallis test for mean values was used to evaluate non-parametric comparisons between participants in all groups.

    Measured: 2021.7.1-2026.12.30

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy and Breast-milk Collection, run by Zhujiang Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ying Ma, Doctor (13113361169, mayingwuzhuoyi@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compare the omics differences of the specimens between the experimental and control groups (time frame: 2021.7.1-2026.12.30). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jul 2023.
