Gluten-free diet has been shown to improve gut symptoms in patients with celiac disease and also in adult patients with diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (Rome III criteria). Antibodies to native gliadin (AGA) have been suggested as a potential diagnostic marker of response to GFD. However, this has not been tested in a prospective study in IBS patients. Identification of predictors of a symptomatic response to GFD within the IBS population would improve the clinical management of these patients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of gluten-free diet on gastrointestinal symptoms and gut motility in patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome stratified according to their antigliadin antibodies status. Additional purposes include investigating effects gluten free diet may have on other parameters: - Improvement of mood - Quality of life and general well-being - Changes in gut microbiota
In this randomized controlled study in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) the investigators plan to compare the effects of a structured patient group education (IBS School) with structured education provided via the internet. The effects of the interventions on GI and psychological symptom severity, knowledge and quality of life will be assessed with validated questionnaires at baseline, immediately after the intervention and 3 and 6 months after the intervention.
To assess the effect of L. casei DG® (Lactobacillus paracasei CNCMI1572; Enterolactis® plus) on abdominal symptoms and gut microbiota metabolism/composition in non constipated patients with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Patients will be randomized to receive L. casei DG® capsules, b.i.d. for 12 weeks the a 4 weeks Follow Up period will follow.
Patients' fulfilling Rome III criteria for IBS with symptoms refractory to standard treatment who are referred to a specialist unit for hypnotherapy are consecutively included in the study. The patients are randomized to either individual or group treatment given by a nurse trained in hypnotherapy. The treatment consists of eight sessions of gut directed hypno therapy during twelve weeks. Effects are measured by validated questionnaires at baseline and at various time points during the treatment period as well as after the completion of the treatment.
The study will characterize the biology of FMT in the context of IBS prior to wider clinical application of the method. Given the ethical concerns of unknown and long-term adverse effects of FMT therapy, the study will include patients only with moderate to severe symptoms. IBS is a heterogenous disorder and it is important to characterize the patients, and study as homogeneous patient populations as possible. Therefore the study will only include post-infectious IBS patients after the Giardia outbreak.
The aim of the present study is to research whether subjects with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) display epigenetic/genetic changes or altered microbiota compared to a non-IBS control group. Further, we will investigate if these parameters as well as subjective IBS symptoms are affected by a 4-week long dietary intervention within the IBS patient group.
A cross-sectional study of 350 medical student Universitas Indonesia from first grade until fifth grade was done during November-December 2016. This study used stratified randomized sampling. The Rome IV criteria was used for diagnosing IBS. Questionnaire-guided interview was applied to all subjects.
The IMAGINE Cohort Study will identify and recruit a cohort of 8000 patients with IBS, IBD and healthy controls (2000 of each) who will be assessed in terms of their psychological status, dietary intake, gut microbiome, metabolomic and inflammatory markers and genotype, health-related quality of life, and health care resource use and associated costs. The cohort and healthy controls will be followed prospectively for up to 5 years after the completion of study enrolment.
The main goal of this randomized controlled clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy of an individual Ayurvedic nutritional counseling (according to tradition) compared to an individual conventional dietary advice (according to the German Nutrition Society - DGE) in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. It is to be investigated whether nutritional therapy elements, which patients can self-implement independently in the home environment, can achieve sustainable therapy effects.
