Summary

The goal of this observational study is to understand the effects of gut microbiota dysbiosis treatment in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) combined with depression. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) improve depression symptoms in IBD patients by altering GABA levels in the medial prefrontal cortex?

Participants already undergoing fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) as part of their regular medical care for IBD and comorbid depression will undergo regular assessments of GABA levels, gut microbiota, and depression symptoms for the duration of the study.
