Summary
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the causes of gastrointestinal dysfunction after spinal cord injury. It has been thought that the microbiome (the community of bacteria in the body) may be one such cause. The study will examine whether changes in the distal gut microbiome are related to gastrointestinal dysfunction in persons with Spinal Cord Injury and Non-Disabled Controls.
