Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Intra-individual differences between inflamed and non-inflamed tissue in presence of microbial DNA in specific microenvironmental spaces; differences between IBD patients and controls;<br /><br>2. Intra-individual differences in presence of microbial DNA in specific microenvironmental spaces of sigmoid mucosa before and 12 weeks after diverting ostomy;<br /><br>3. Identify adaptive and innate immune cells producing cytokines involved in IBD.
