Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Little is known about the dynamic change of human microbiome in different body sites including skin, mouth and gut during sailing. The present study aims to reveal the change of human microbiome in response to the sailing environment in a 1-month period, and its implication for human health.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will recruit a number of participants who are going to sail for mariana trench from Shenzhen, China. Characteristics of the participants will be described by a series of index of stool, urine, skin microbiota and tongue coating. All the biospecimen will be collected before and during the voyage. Stool at the 2nd, the 4th and the 12th week after the voyage and blood sample at the baseline will also be collected. Participants' mood states, health-related quality of life, fatigue score and sleep quality will be investigated with questionnaires throughout the 1-month period. Participants are asked to record diseases and symptoms, if any, when sailing. All the data will be used to analyse how microbiota change and be involved in human health during a voyage.
