Brief Summary

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

This is a real-world study to explore the safety and the efficacy of washed microbiota transplantation (WMT) for patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM).

Detailed Description

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

At least 20 subjects who meet all the inclusion criteria but do not meet any exclusion criteria will be enrolled in this study. Data of demographic characteristics, blood glucose fluctuation and variability, daily insulin dosage and clinical outcomes will be collected. After treatment, they will enter the follow-up period for safety and efficacy evaluation.
