The improvement effects of fecal microbiota transplantation on intestinal function, immune function and inflammation response in patients with refractory constipation by Yu Dandan, Liu Yapo, Hong Wen, Yang Bo, Zhang Yuan

“…[Methods] Fifty-six patients with refractory constipation who visited the Department of Proctology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from March 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled and randomly divided into a control group (receiving conventional drug therapy, n＝28) and an observation group (receiving FMT in addition to conventional drug therapy, n＝28). The symptom scores, clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, microbial community values (including Yeast, Bifidobacteria, Lactobacilli, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus, Bacteroides, Clostridium, and the B/E ratio), intestinal function indicators (vasoactive intestinal peptide, somatostatin, and motilin), immune function indicators (interferon-γ and interleukin-4), and inflammatory response indicators (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α) were compared between the two groups before and one month after treatment. …”
