Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Metabolome

    metabolomic fingerprint of patient with PEI in the fed and fasted state Bloods are taken in the fed and fasted state, after centrifugation, the plasma is then frozen at -80. Samples will then be analysed using untargeted liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, after which the raw data will be processed using the open-source software XCMS. The resultant metabolite features in the samples will be compared between healthy and diseased (PEI) cohorts to identify features specific to exocrine insufficiency.

    1 year after study completion

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • PEI status using 13CMTGT in comparison to the metabolome

    1 year after study completion

  • PEI status using FE-1 in comparison to the metabolome

    1 year after study completion

  • PEI status using PEIQ in comparison to the metabolome

    1 year after study completion

  • Response of the fed and fasted metabolome to PERT

    1 year after study completion
