Conditions

Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders

Brief summary

The goal of this study is to establish a prospective observational cohort of individuals with functional GI disorders (functional constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic nausea, functional diarrhea, and functional dyspepsia, as well as a subset of these individuals starting neuromodulation for their functional GI disorder) and collect clinical information and specimens. This information will be used in order to establish a patient registry with detailed clinical data and a specimen repository for future research as well as to specifically identify environmental, genetic, physiological, and psycho-social factors associated with functional GI disorders.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) genotypingBaseline visitIn this study, we anticipate identifying differential functional genomic profiles (metagenomes) and metabolites (metabolomes) between patients with different functional GI disorders, with detailed species-specific reconstruction of microbial metabolic pathways, their complement of gene orthologs, taxonomic distributions, and abundance profiles.
Whole genome analysisBaseline visitIn this study, we anticipate identifying differential functional genomic profiles (metagenomes) and metabolites (metabolomes) between patients with different functional GI disorders, with detailed species-specific reconstruction of microbial metabolic pathways, their complement of gene orthologs, taxonomic distributions, and abundance profiles.
ProteomicsBaseline visitIn this study, we anticipate identifying differential functional genomic profiles (metagenomes) and metabolites (metabolomes) between patients with different functional GI disorders, with detailed species-specific reconstruction of microbial metabolic pathways, their complement of gene orthologs, taxonomic distributions, and abundance profiles.
Microbiome analysisBaseline visitIn this study, we anticipate identifying differential functional genomic profiles (metagenomes) and metabolites (metabolomes) between patients with different functional GI disorders, with detailed species-specific reconstruction of microbial metabolic pathways, their complement of gene orthologs, taxonomic distributions, and abundance profiles.
Diet and Lifestyle QuestionnaireBaseline visitThis questionnaire evaluates patients' diet, lifestyle, and symptoms relating to their functional GI disorder.
