Alteration of Intestinal Dysbiosis by Fecal Microbiota Transplantation Does not Induce Remission in Patients with Chronic Active Ulcerative Colitis hmjournalclub.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/kump-et-al-20131.pdf

This was a really interesting read. Not sure if someone posted it before or not.... Worth a look. Nice to see donor and recipient bacteria comparisons.

Yea believe I posted it when it came out.
Might need more than a single infusion,might need a more matched donor.

Could be that this is evidence that dybosis is caused by not the cause of UC when you combine this with the documented benefit of FT on stubborn inflections.

Might need a study that includes more than 6 people.

I didn't notice it was 6 people. I get pretty tired of reading the latest sound bite article about a painless miracle cure and discovering the research was two weeks long, involved 3 mice and no placebo group. That seems to be the case for almost every diet, supplement and non-rx therapy for UC. The RX studies are either scary or a blatant attempt at new coke that will increase compliance by 0.5% or reset a patent.
