Trial Outcomes & Findings for Acarbose Anti-aging Effects in Geriatric Subjects (Substudy B & C) (NCT NCT02865499)

NCT ID: NCT02865499

Last Updated: 2019-03-14

Results Overview

Changes in bacterial community measurement through DNA extraction from stool samples. Change is measured using operational taxonomic units (OTU). An OTU is the group of organisms being studied through DNA to cluster sequences of microbiomes according to their similarity to one another (the similarity threshold is set to 97%). This outcome measures change in the number of OTUs from baseline to 12 weeks.
