Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are adults over 18 years old who present with acute abdominal pain and require a CT scan for diagnosis.

Probably not a fit

Patients who do not undergo an abdominal CT scan or are under 18 years old may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to identify accurate biomarkers for acute mesenteric ischemia, particularly in its early stages. It involves analyzing biological samples from patients and controls, which will be stored in a biological library for further examination. The analysis will be conducted at several prestigious institutions, including Paris V University and Imperial College London, using both established and novel -omics methods to determine candidate markers. The goal is to improve diagnostic capabilities and treatment strategies for this severe condition.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to earlier and more accurate diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia, potentially reducing mortality rates and improving patient outcomes.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in identifying biomarkers for similar conditions, but this specific approach is innovative and may provide new insights.
