74

Results

1. CP2305 reduced anxiety and sleep disturbance relative to placebo.
2. CP2305 shortened sleep latency and wake time after sleep onset and increased the delta power ratio in the first sleep cycle.
3. CP2305 lowered salivary chromogranin A levels compared with placebo. 4. CP2305 administration attenuated the stress-induced decline of Bifidobacterium spp. and the stress-induced elevation of Streptococcus spp.

Baseline Characteristics

healthy young adults (average age 24.9 +- 0.5)

Participant flow

The study was designed as a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial and ran from July 2017 to March 2018.
Seventy-four sixth-grade medical students were recruited at Tokushima University, Tokushima, Japan. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants, and they were randomly allocated to either the CP2305 or placebo group with a stratified randomization by gender.
Fourteen of the 74 participants were excluded as they were taking medications, or for hormonal contraceptives and active disease (mental disease, inflammatory disease, bone disease, and hormonal disorder).
Finally, 29 participants (20 males and nine females) were allocated to the CP2305 group and 31 (21 males and 10 females) to the placebo group.
The participants were instructed to ingest two tablets (placebo or CP2305) once daily for 24 weeks.

Adverse events

No adverse event was reported.

Outcome measures

1. Questionnaires to Assess Mental and Physical States.
2. Measurements of Salivary Cortisol and Chromogranin A (CGA).
3. Measurement and Assessment of Single-Channel Sleep Electroencephalogram (EEG).
4. Assessment of Stool Properties and Bowel Habits.
5. Measurement of Short-Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) Concentrations in Feces.
6. Fecal Microbiota Analysis.
