An observational analytical clinical research study and asystematic review on the clinical pharmacology ofrectal organoids in cystic fibrosis

Abstract

Introduction: Rectal organoid cultures, derived from the rectal epithelia, are three-dimensional (3D) primary stem cell cultures that self-organize into tissue-recapitulating “mini-guts” in vitro that enable the long-term expansion and biobanking of primary patient tissue using defined growth conditions. This clinical research and systematic review was conducted for systematically investigatingthe clinical pharmacological aspectsof the rectalorganoids in cystic fibrosis, with thorough explanations and analyses of the medical study literature and evidences compiled from the various studies conducted, whichexplained the clinical pharmacology of rectal organoids. Objectives: The objective of this study was an observational analytical clinical research and a systematic review on the clinical pharmacology of rectal organoids in cystic fibrosis. Methods: The study was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) Statement and Guidelines, 2009, described by the Cochrane Collaboration in June, 2016. At first, the steps of identification included the records which were identified through database searching and the additional records which were identified through other sources. This led to the steps of screening, which included the screened records after the duplicates were removed. From these screened records, few records were excluded, as per the exclusion criteria. Then, in the eligibility step, the full text articles were assessed for eligibility, from which few full text articles were excluded, according to the exclusion criteria, with adequate reasons. This led to the final inclusion step, where the studies were included in the qualitative synthesis of a systematic review, according to the inclusion criteria, and ultimately the studies were included in the quantitative synthesis.An observational analytical clinical pharmacological research study was also conducted. Results: This clinical research and systematic review, contributed 5898 refined and relevant medical records, among total 8371 records obtained from the study databases search. It also described theclinical pharmacology of rectal organoids in cystic fibrosis,which elaboratedthis systematic review and observational analytical clinical research study. Conclusions: To conclude, this clinical research and systematic review provided the refined qualitatively synthesised medical records, study literature and databases, as well as a descriptive analysis on the clinical pharmacology of rectal organoids in cystic fibrosis.
