      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Patients are assigned to two groups using the random block method. The number of blocks will be 22 and in each block, two, four or six patients will be included in the study order. Random allocation of blocks of patients to two intervention groups will be done through Sealed Envelope online software. By referring to https://www.sealedenvelope.com/simple-randomiser/v1/lists by specifying the total number of samples, the number of possible samples in each randomized block (2, 4 and 6 patients) randomization by online software is done For example, like the following output: block identifier block size sequence within block treatment 1 2 1 Group B 1 2 2 Group A 2 4 1 Group A 2 4 2 Group B 2 4 3 Group B 2 4 4 Group A 3 2 1 Group A 3 2 2 Group B ... which is the block number, the number of patients in the block, and the random assignment of each patient (with the corresponding number) to the treatment group. The randomized list of blocks will be placed in sealed envelopes and will be provided to the gastroenterologist on a daily basis.</study_design>
