Abstract

The purpose of this descriptive study with a cross-sectional study design is to explore the differences in symptom experience and features of fecal microbiota among three groups (CRC survivors before cancer treatments, CRC survivors post-cancer treatments, and healthy controls [HCs]) and to explore if there are specific microbiota profiles (primary focus = immune- and inflammation- related microbiota) associated with symptoms in CRC survivors.
