Recruiting Participants with Constipation for a Research (GUTFIT)
We (The GUTFIT Cohort Study Research Team at the Liggins Institute, University of Auckland) are looking for Chinese and non-Chinese individuals, with or without functional constipation to participate in our GUTFIT Cohort Study.
Why is this study important?
We know that the prevalence of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) varies between geographical regions and ethnicities. Currently, the diagnosis of FGIDs, including functional constipation, is based on the individual’s perception and interpretation of symptoms.
These can be influenced by language, and by both social and cultural perceptions of the questionnaires upon which diagnoses are made. Therefore, we want to better characterise the clinical, biological, and physiological markers of functional constipation between different ethnicities in NZ urban areas.
