About
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a probiotic formulation, VSL#3, on intestinal permeability in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease.
Full description
Children with Crohn's disease have altered intestinal permeability. A pilot study in children showed that probiotics may decrease intestinal permeability. In this double blind, randomized controlled trial, we will observe the effect of VSL#3 on small bowel permeability using a double sugar absorption test. PCDAI was monitored, but not analyzed.
