Abstract

The objective of the pilot study is to validate the clinical use of an innovative symbiotic in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3b-4 and in healthy subjects.

The study aims at evaluating the effects of a symbiotic, consisting of a mixture of probiotics (Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria), prebiotics (fructooligosaccharides and inulin) and natural antioxidants (a mix of quercetin, resveratrol and proanthocyanidins), by achieving two objectives:

1. Reduction of the serum levels of microbiota-derived uremic toxins, involved in a variety of cardiovascular complications in CKD

2. Reduction of intestinal permeability, inflammatory markers and oxidative stress

Conditions: Chronic Kidney Diseases, Healthy.

Primary outcome: Change of serum concentration of pCS.

Enrollment: 50 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 50 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
