Anyone know of any research being done on how the gut microbiome relates to ITP in adults.  I did see some research being done with Kids with ITP and the gut microbiome at CHOP but was wondering if anyone knew of research being done with adults.  Thanks,

  • ITP since 2014. Retired nurse. My belief is empower patients to be involved as much as possible in their care. Read, read, read & ALWAYS question medics about the evidence base they use.
