Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy for the Diagnosis of Wheat Sensitivity in IBS
Investigators assessed the specificity and sensitivity of confocal laser endomicroscopy for identifying wheat sensitivity in patients with IBS.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Postinfectious IBS: What to Look For
Given the overall prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome, it is important for clinicians to be able to distinguish postinfectious irritable bowel syndrome from its other subtypes.
Psyllium Increases Colonic Volumes Without Increasing Colonic Gas or Breath Hydrogen
Investigators tested the hypothesis that psyllium can reduce the increase in colonic gas induced by inulin in patients with IBS.
Low FODMAP Diet in Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Researchers conducted a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of a low FODMAP diet in patients with IBS and compared this efficacy with other dietary interventions.
Assessment of Antispasmodics Available in North America for the Treatment of Chronic Abdominal Pain
Researchers reviewed and summarized the safety and efficacy of individual antispasmodics available in North America for the treatment of chronic abdominal pain.
Gut Virome Is Stable Over Time But Varies in Subsets of Patients With IBS
Researchers assessed the stability of the virome over time, the effect of diet and genetics, the impact of the virome on host gene expression, and whether specific viruses are associated with IBS subtypes.
A Multifactorial Approach to Treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Researchers provided practical tips and management approach strategies for the treatment of severe irritable bowel syndrome.
Separating Fact From Fallacy in Celiac Disease
Clinicians summarized the current research and clarified widespread misinformation on celiac disease.
Low FODMAP Diet and IBD: A Potential Option?
Current research indicates that short-term utilization of an LFD may help ameliorate some mild IBS symptoms associated with quiescent IBD, while further long term studies are still needed.
Gut Microbiome: A New Mechanism to Monitor Response to Biologics?
The gut microbiome is complex within irritable bowel disease (IBD), and its disruption may be a potential contributing factor in the pathogenesis of IBD.
