About this study

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the biomarkers and mechanisms of severe acute pancreatitis in 30 healthy controls, 30 patients of mild acute pancreatitis, 30 patients of moderately severe acute pancreatitis, and 86 patients of severe acute pancreatitis. The main question it aims to answer are: • The relationship between changes in gut microbiota and clinical prognosis (plasma inflammatory cytokines, incidence and duration of infection in various parts, mortality rate), and the screening and validation of biomarkers that can be used for early prediction of disease severity. • Analyze the relationship between changes in blood composition and clinical prognosis (plasma inflammatory cytokines, incidence and duration of infection in various parts, mortality rate), screen and verify biomarkers that can be used for early prediction of disease severity. Blood and fecal samples from the healthy control group and diagnosed patients will be collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composition of gut microbiota

    The gut microbiota plays an important role in protecting the intestinal barrier, regulating metabolism, and participating in immune responses in the human body, and is an important component of the gut ecosystem.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Composition of gut metabolites

    Metabolites can reveal the intrinsic correlation between metabolic products and physiological and pathological changes in the body, thereby achieving recognition of the overall state of the body.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Composition of metabolites in plasma

    Metabolites can reveal the intrinsic correlation between metabolic products and physiological and pathological changes in the body, thereby achieving recognition of the overall state of the body.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. composition of proteins in plasma

    Proteins are an important material foundation for life activities and the main executors of life processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, aging, and death.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Pancreatitis, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University 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 6 inclusion and 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2024. 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 Yin Zhu, phD (+8613970841464, zhuyin27@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composition of gut microbiota (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 4 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 30 Jan 2024.
