Clinical Study to Evaluate the Possible Efficacy of Nifuroxazide in Patient With Ulcerative Colitis

Brief summary (registry, in English)
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of the most common types of chronic and non-specific inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It is characterized by cytokine-induced continuous and diffuse inflammatory infiltrations into the rectum's mucosa and extends proximally to the colon. Patients with UC predominantly have bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain, fecal urgency, and tenesmus, which extremely alters their quality of life. Although the precise pathological mechanism of UC remains unclear, several studies have been outlined many factors that could involve in the pathogenesis of UC, including, but not limited to, initiation of the inflammatory response, disruption of oxidant/antioxidant status, dysregulation of the immune response, alteration of gut microbiota, and delaying epithelial barrier healing. Loss of intestinal barrier function and dysregulated immune response are the key events during colitis development
