Detailed Description
Primary hypertension is a most prevalent cardiovascular diseases, and becomes a severe global public health issue because of the high morbidity and potential risk to other cardiovascular diseases. Several animal studies and diverse patient cohorts reported that the disorder of gut microbiome correlated with hypertension. Based on the investigators' previous work findings, a casual role of gut microbiome disorder was observed in primary hypertension (Microbiome. 2017;5(1):14.), and trend of ameliorating SBP was observed after short-course FMT intervention but recovery after intervention termination(Trials. 2022;23(1):178, unpublished results). The investigators therefore developed a consecutive study of intensive FMT intervention on primary hypertension.
Objective: To explore the effect, safety and underlying mechanisms of intensive FMT on primary hypertension.
Study Design: A multi-center, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled pilot study.
Data quality control and statistical analysis: The investigators have invited professional statistic analysts to assist analyzing data and a third party to supervise data quality.
