Brief Summary

Postoperative ileus (POI) is a common clinical condition after abdominal surgical procedure, leading to increased patient morbidity and prolonged hospitalisation.The mechanism of POI is not very clear until now. At the end of the 20th century, the inflammatory-mediated ileus hypothesis was introduced. But the initial trigger of the inflammatory cascade is unclear.Previous study demonstrate a clear association between colonic transit time, gut microbiota composition and urinary metabolic phenotype. Here the investigators suggest that the perioperative gut microbiota may contribute to POI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in gut microbiome dynamics in colorectal cancer patients during the perioperative period between two groups

    The diversity, structure of fecal microbiota and relative abundance of special bacterial taxa 16S rRNA gene sequencing will be performed.

    The day before operation day, the first to the 10th day after operation (everyday the patient's faeces will be collected for microbiome analysis, if the patient has no faeces,we will skip that day to next day for fecal collection)

  • The time ranging from operation day to the day of first defecation

    The recovery of gut transit can be indicated by the first defecation

    Up to 10 days

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Concentration of plasma i-FABP(intestinal fatty acid-binding protein)

    The day before operation day, every day from first to fifth post-operative day

  • Concentration of plasma LPS

    The day before operation day, every day from first to fifth post-operative day

  • Concentration of fecal LPS

    The day before operation day, the first to the 10th day after operation (everyday the patient's faeces will be collected for microbiome analysis, if the patient has no faeces,we will skip that day to next day for fecal collection)

  • Concentration of fecal calprotectin

    The day before operation day, the first to the 10th day after operation (everyday the patient's faeces will be collected for microbiome analysis, if the patient has no faeces,we will skip that day to next day for fecal collection)

Study Arms (2)

Delayed transit

CRC patients with delayed gut transit recovery( first time defecation \>3 day )

Other: Fecal and blood samples collection for analysis

Normal transit

CRC patients with normal gut transit recovery( first time defecation \<=3 day )

Other: Fecal and blood samples collection for analysis

Interventions

Fecal sample analysis will consist of the following procedure : Microbial DNA extraction, amplicon library construction, sequencing and analysis; Clustering "MiSeq" reads into operational taxonomic units (OTUs).
