This cohort clinical trial (RAPID RECOVERY) investigates the role of gut microbiome in mental health and the effectiveness of personalized microbiome correction in individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study aims to:
1. identify associations between gut microbiome composition, cognitive impairment, anxiety-depressive disorders, and PTSD;
2. evaluate the impact of targeted microbiome correction using next-generation biotics (pharmabiotics) on recovery speed and neurological outcomes; 3 develop predictive models for PTSD risk using Data Science and Machine Learning approaches. Participants receive individually selected pharmabiotics based on their microbiome, immunological, and clinical profiles.
Outcomes include changes in PTSD symptom severity (PCL-5), anxiety and depression levels (HADS), cognitive function (MoCA), immunological parameters (lymphocyte subpopulations, cytokines, immunoglobulins), and gut microbiome composition (NGS). The study is conducted at Uzhhorod National University in collaboration with Uzhhorod City Multidisciplinary Hospital and Danylo Halytskyi Lviv National Medical University.
