According to the records of traditional Chinese medicine, CBS has the following functions: clearing the heart, resolving phlegm, promoting bile secretion, and calming the nerves. It can treat fever, coma, delirium, epilepsy, convulsions in children, dental caries, throat swelling, oral sores, carbuncle, and furuncle.
The significant pathophysiological process of primary inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (hereinafter referred to as IIDD) is the activation of the immune system of the central nervous system and the enhancement of inflammation. It includes several common diseases: multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-related disease (MOGAD), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), concentric sclerosis, tumor-like inflammatory demyelinating disease, etc.
Combined with the inspiration brought to us by the above background research, especially bilirubin and bile acid are closely related to intestinal digestive function, and CBS is clinically effective through oral administration by subjects, the investigators speculate that CBS is likely to exert its immune, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects on the brain by changing the intestinal flora and regulating the brain-gut axis. In terms of symptoms, CBS is likely to have the effect of improving the clinical symptoms of IIDD subjects and reducing disability.
Subjects are capable of understanding the purpose and risks of the study, providing informed consent and authorizing the use of confidential health information in accordance with national and local privacy regulations.
Both men and women are welcome, and the age at the time of providing informed consent is 18-65 years (inclusive).

Must be diagnosed with
Any clinically significant cardiac, endocrine, hematologic, hepatic, immune, infectious, metabolic, urologic, pulmonary, neurological, dermatologic, psychiatric, and renal disease or other major medical history that the investigator determines would preclude participation in the clinical trial.

Any surgical procedure within 4 weeks prior to baseline, except laparoscopic surgery or minor surgery (defined as surgery requiring only local anesthesia or conscious sedation, i.e., surgery that does not require general, neuraxial, or regional anesthesia and can be performed on an outpatient basis; e.g., toenail surgery, mole surgery, wisdom tooth extraction), excluding thymoma or teratoma removal.
