简要总结
To examine benefits of a probiotic for youth with chronic pain and a Body Mass Index >=85th percentile.
详细描述
The purpose of the current study: (1) examine whether a 7-11 week supplement of a single-strain probiotic (Lactobascillus Plantarum, Lp299v) reduces systemic inflammation; (2) determine whether reductions in systemic inflammation will correlate with reductions in pain, disability, mood impairment and changes in mechanical pain threshold and mechanical pain sensitization; (3) Explore whether reductions in systemic inflammation will correlate with reductions in other outcomes.
