RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of hydrogen sulfide breath test(SBT) for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).Methods:College students were enrolled to complete gastrointestinal symptom scale, food frequency questionnaire, lactulose hydrogen- methane breath test (LHMBT) and SBT. Based on the correlation between hydrogen sulfide(H 2S) and hydrogen or methane gas,the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of H 2S was drawn and diagnostic criteria of SBT was defined. Results:A total of 300 subjects including 84 males and 216 females with age 17-32 (21.6±2.4) years were enrolled from April 2019 to December 2019 and divided into two groups.Two hundred and three patients reported SIBO discomforts with 99 (48.8%) LHMBT positive, while 38 (39.2%) were LHMBT positive in 97 health controls. Rise of H 2S at 90 min was positively related with that of hydrogen ( r=0.516, P<0.01), and H 2S levels at 90 min were positively correlated with methane ( r=0.632, P<0.01). A rise in H 2S of ≥25.0 ppb or H 2S levels ≥62.5 ppb at 90 min during lactulose breath test was considered positive for SIBO, that sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 66.4%,79.1% and 73.3% respectively. H 2S levels were significantly related to the amount of Vitamin B 12 intake ( P=0.011). H 2S-positive subjects exhibited a constipation-predominant pattern. Conclusion:SBT is consistent with LHMBT, especially in constipation-predominant patients, which may provide a reference to the diagnosis of SIBO.
RESUMO
Inflammatory Bowel Disease ( IBD) comprises of ulcerative colitis ( UC) and Crohn′s disease ( CD ) , is lack of gold standard for diagnosis by now . To distinguish UC and CD requires comprehensive clinical manifestations , laboratory tests, radiological examinations , endoscopic characteristics and biopsies, etc.Taking the advantages of convenience , noninvasion, efficiency and economic, laboratory examinations especially great progress made in the research of anti-microbial antibodies , have a great value in diagnosis , differential diagnosis , therapeutic effect evaluation and prognosis judgment of IBD .
RESUMO
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.
RESUMO
Objective To estimate the prevalence and risk factors for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in China.Methods Cross-sectional studies relevant to IBS conducted among Chinese were identified through the databases including PubMed,Web of Science,the Cochrane Library,CBM,CNKI,Wanfang data and VIP.Quality of studies was assessed according to the criteria for cross-sectional studies recommended by Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality(AHRQ).Analysis of data,publication bias and sensitivity were performed with Stata (Version 12.0).Results A total of twenty-three studies were extracted.No obvious publication bias was detected in all analysis except the effect of depression on IBS prevalence.Pooled prevalence of IBS in China was 6.5％.IBS was more common in women than in men (8.1％ vs 6.8％;OR=1.23,95％CI 1.09-1.38) and high rate in age group between 30 to 59 years (6.9％ ; OR =1.22,95％ CI 1.12-1.32).Intestinal infection history(OR =2.39,95％ CI 1.69-3.38),anxiety (OR =2.95,95 ％ CI 1.94-4.49),depression (OR =1.85,95 ％ CI 1.11-3.09),food allergy (OR =2.80,95％ CI 2.12-3.67) and alcohol consumption (OR =1.15,95％ CI 1.07-1.24) might increase the risk for IBS.There were no significant difference of IBS prevalence between urban and rural areas (OR =0.97,95％ CI 0.72-1.29),neither in different education classes (OR =0.85,95％ CI 0.70-1.03).Sub-group analysis showed IBS prevalence varied apparently with different diagnostic criteria:prevalence defined by Manning was 11.8％ and by Rome Ⅱ and Rome Ⅲ prevalence values were 4.4％ and 8.9％ respectively.Conclusions Pooled prevalence of IBS in China was 6.5％.IBS is more common in age group between 30 to 59 years.Female,history of intestinal infection,anxiety,depression,food allergy and alcohol consumption were risk factors for IBS in Chinese population.
