Serum Metabolics-based Method for Diagnosing Bile Acid Diarrhoea
Sponsor: University Hospital, Gentofte, Copenhagen
Summary
Bile acid diarrhoea (BAD) is a common yet under-diagnosed and under-recognised disease. The primary symptoms are watery diarrhoea with high frequency of unpredictable bowel movements,urgency and faecal incontinence making BAD a debilitating condition. One of the challenges of BAD is the lack of a readily available and accurate diagnostic test. The aim of this study is to validate a BAD diagnostic score (BDS) based on metabolomics.
