Clinical trial

Washed Microbiota Transplantation (WMT) for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Name
WMT-ASD-2023
Description
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a group of serious neurodevelopmental disorders. Intestinal microbial disturbance is common in children with ASD. A great deal of evidence shows that intestinal microbes can influence the brain to play its role through "gut-brain-microbiota axis". We intend to explore the role of Washed Microbiota Transplantation in improving symptoms of children in autism spectrum disorder; To study the potential etiological mechanism of autism spectrum disorder.
