简要总结
This prospective, two-arm (parallel groups), double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center clinical trial will investigate the effects of an 8-week Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 supplementation on stool frequency and on other constipation parameters in adults suffering from functional constipation according to ROME III criteria. The hypothesis is that Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 is superior, in comparison with a placebo, for the increase of stool frequency of at least 1 stool per week.
