Post Infection Syndrome

Observational, multicenter, prospective study aimed at characterizing the gut microbiome in patients with post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS) using whole genome sequencing (WGS). The study will compare microbiome composition and function between PI-IBS patients and two control groups (post-infectious subjects without irritable bowel syndrome -IBS- and healthy controls), with the goal of identifying reproducible microbial signatures and target taxa associated with disease and symptom severity.
