Clinical Trial: Diagnosis of Abdominal Pain Using RNA Levels: The NATURAL Study

U.S., May 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07579312) titled 'Diagnosis of Abdominal Pain Using RNA Levels: The NATURAL Study' on May 06.

Brief Summary: The NATURAL Study is a prospective, observational, pragmatic study of RNA biomarkers of infections to aid in the diagnosis of abdominal pain.

Summary of Research Study:

Hypothesis: A genomic-derived panel of 6 RNA biomarkers present in stabilized whole blood will provide diagnostic information about the presence of bacterial, biofilm, and viral infections in the abdomen. We hypothesize that biomarkers will be more than 90% sensitive with a high (>90%) negative predictive value for IAI.

Research Design: The project design is a prospective, pr...
