The dietary features of diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome patients with small intestinal bowel overgrowth / 中华内科杂志

Objective To explore the diet features of diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).Methods IBS-D patients were enrolled in outpatient department of Peking University Third Hospital from March 2015 to April 2016.Healthy volunteers were recruited as controls (HC).All the subjects completed screening examinations,clinical and food investigation,and lactulose methane and hydrogen breath test (LMHBT).The high fat diet is defined as the daily total calories supplying from fat is more than 50％.Results Eighty-eight IBS-D patients and 32 HC were finally enrolled.The positive rate of LMHBT in IBS-D was significantly higher than that of HC [39.8％ (35/88) vs 12.5％ (4/28),P=0.005].The 28 HC with negative LMHBT were enrolled in the follow-up analysis.(1) The BMI of IBS-P (IBS-D with positive LMHBT) was significantly lower than IBS-N (IBS-D with negative LMHBT) [(21.57 ±0.54) vs (23.30 ±0.53) kg/m2,P=0.032].IBS-D patients with SIBO had higher scores of abdominal pain assess.(2) The proportion of dietary protein and carbohydrate in IBS-D was significantly higher than that of HC (14.39％ vs 12.22％,P =0.001;53.94％ vs 46.25％,P =0.003,respectively).The proportion of diet fat was significantly higher in IBS-P than IBS-N[(47.19 ± 2.62) ％ vs (40.74 ± 1.66) ％,P =0.038].(3) The baseline of breath methane in IBS-P was significantly higher than that of in IBS-N [(8.69 ± 0.39) × 10-6 vs (6.39 ± 0.47) × 10-6,P =0.002].IBS-D patients with high fat diet had higher LMHBT positive rate than that of non-high fat diet patients[54.2％ (13/24) vs 17.2％ (11/64),P =0.001].Breath methane peak value was positively correlated with the fat proportion of diet (r =0.413,P =0.022).Conclusions About 39.8％ IBS-D patients diagnosed by Rome 11Ⅲ are combined with SIBO.SIBO may affect IBS-D patients' nutritional status.High fat diet might be one of the risk factors for IBS-D with SIBO.Proper diet structure might reduce the prevalence of IBS-D,especially for IBS-D with SIBO.

Um ensaio randomizado duplo-cego e controlado por placebo com probióticos em casos de supercrescimento bacteriano no intestino delgado em crianças tratadas com omeprazol / A double-blind placebo-controlled randomized trial on probiotics in small bowel bacterial overgrowth in children treated with omeprazole

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a incidência de SBID em crianças tratadas com omeprazol e testar se os probióticos influenciam essa incidência. MÉTODOS: Um ensaio duplo-cego controlado por placebo foi realizado em 70 crianças tratadas oralmente, durante 4 semanas, com 20 mg de omeprazol por dia. Desses, 36 indivíduos receberam diária e simultaneamente Lactobacillus rhamnosus R0011 (1,9 x 10(9) cfu) e Lactobacillus acidophillus R0052 (0,1 x 10(9) cfu) (grupo probiótico), enquanto 34 receberam placebo (grupo placebo). O diagnóstico de SBID teve como base o desenvolvimento de sintomas sugestivos em combinação com um teste respiratório com glicose positivo. RESULTADOS: Após um mês de tratamento com IBP, 30% (21/70) apresentaram um teste respiratório positivo sugerindo SBID; desses, 62% foram sintomáticos. Cinco crianças desenvolveram sintomas parecidos com os de SBID, mas apresentaram um teste respiratório negativo; 44 (63%) não apresentavam sintomas e tiveram teste respiratório negativo. Não houve diferença na incidência de testes respiratórios positivos no grupo probiótico em comparação ao grupo placebo (33% em comparação a 26,5%; p: 0,13). CONCLUSÕES: Como houve sintomas sugestivos de SBID em 26% das crianças tratadas com IBP e o teste respiratório com glicose deu resultados anormais em 72% delas, esse efeito colateral deve ser levado em consideração com mais frequência. O probiótico testado não reduziu o risco de desenvolver SBID.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the incidence of small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO) in children treated with omeprazole, and to test whether probiotics influence the incidence. METHODS: A double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was performed in 70 children treated orally during four weeks with 20 mg omeprazole per day. Lactobacillus rhamnosus R0011 (1.9 x 10(9) cfu) and Lactobacillus acidophillus R0052 (0.1 x 10(9) cfu) were simultaneously given daily to 36 subjects (probiotic group), while 34 subjects received placebo (placebo group). The diagnosis of SBBO was based on the development of suggestive symptoms, in combination with a positive glucose breath test. RESULTS: After one month of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment, 30% (21/70) had a positive breath test suggesting SBBO; of these 62% were symptomatic. Five children developed SBBO-like symptoms, but had a negative breath test; and 44 (63%) were symptom free and had a negative breath test. There was no difference in the incidence of positive breath tests in the probiotic versus the placebo group (33% vs 26.5%; p = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS: Since symptoms suggesting SBBO developed in 26% of PPI-treated children, and since the glucose breath test was abnormal in 72% of these, this side-effect should be more frequently considered. The probiotic tested did not decrease the risk to develop SBBO.

Sobrecrecimiento bacteriano como etiología de dolor cronico no oncológico visceral / Small bowel bacterial overgrowth a cause of visceral noncancer chronic pain

El dolor visceral crónico se produce por la distención de los receptores neuronales localizados en las mucosas de los distintos órganos del aparato digestivo, presentándose clínicamente como un dolor con una localización difusa, con intensidad moderada a severa, que se describe generalmente de tipo cólico.

The small bowel flora in individuals with cecoileal reflux / Estudo da flora do delgado em doentes com refluxo cecoileal

BACKGROUND: The observation of cecoileal reflux to barium enema is not rare; however, its causes and consequences have not been widely investigated. Considering that ileocecal junction exerts a function as barrier to invasion of bacteria from colon to small bowel, it seems interesting to study the intestinal microflora in subjects carrying cecoileal reflux. AIMS: This study aims at evaluating the ileal flora in individuals with cecoileal reflux. METHODS: A group of 36 subjects comprising 30 females and 6 males with a mean age of 54 years was assessed. Twenty-five individuals with cecoileal reflux and 11 without cecoileal reflux were submitted to small intestine contamination evaluation through the breath test with lactulose-H2 and measurement of the orocecal transit time by means of alternate current biosusceptometry. Small intestine bacterial overgrowth was characterized by orocecal transit time-H2 shortening. RESULTS: Comparison of basal H2, orocecal transit time-H2 and orocecal transit time-alternate current biosusceptometry measurements did not statistically differ between the groups with and without cecoileal reflux. Orocecal transit time-H2 was significantly smaller than orocecal transit time-alternate current biosusceptometry, particularly in individuals with cecoileal reflux. A significant correlation between the two methods was observed only in relation to control, not existing in relation to cecoileal reflux group. CONCLUSIONS: Smaller orocecal transit time-H2 and the loss of correlation with orocecal transit time-alternate current biosusceptometry observed in the individuals with cecoileal reflux suggest a differentiated behavior for such group relative to control, which could be associated with small intestine bacterial overgrowth.

RACIONAL: Fato de observação não rara, é o encontro de refluxo cecoileal durante realização de enema opaco. As causas e conseqüências deste achado têm sido pouco estudadas. OBJETIVOS: Sabendo que a junção ileocecal exerce função de barreira e proteção contra a invasão do delgado pela flora colônica, realizou-se o presente estudo com a finalidade de investigar se existe contaminação ileal em indivíduos com refluxo cecoileal ao enema opaco. MÉTODOS: Investigaram-se 36 indivíduos, 30 mulheres e 6 homens, idade média de 54 anos, 25 com e 11 com ausência refluxo cecoileal. Todos submetidos a pesquisa de contaminação bacteriana do delgado por intermédio de teste respiratório com lactulose-H2 e a determinação do tempo de trânsito orocecal por meio de biossusceptometria de corrente alternada. A caracterização da contaminação do delgado foi baseada no encurtamento do tempo de trânsito orocecal medido pelo teste da lactulose-H2. RESULTADOS: A comparação dos valores basais do H2, do tempo de trânsito orocecal-H2 e tempo de trânsito orocecal-biossusceptometria de corrente alternada não diferiram estatisticamente entre os grupos com e sem refluxo cecoileal. Quando comparados os tempo de trânsito orocecal-H2 e tempo de trânsito orocecal-biossusceptometria, foi observado aumento de tendência de redução do primeiro em relação ao último nos grupos com refluxo cecoileal e correlação significante entre os dois métodos apenas no grupo-controle, inexistindo nos com refluxo cecoileal. CONCLUSÃO: Encurtamento do tempo de trânsito orocecal-H2 e sua perda de correlação com o tempo de trânsito orocecal-biossusceptometria observado em indivíduos com refluxo cecoileal, sugerem comportamento diferenciado deste grupo em relação ao grupo-controle. Possível explicação para as diferenças registradas entre os grupos, seria a presença de flora anômala nos indivíduos com refluxo cecoileal.
