Irritable Bowel Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluation of Treatment Effect and Mechanism of Low FODMAP Diet in Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Patients
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder, affecting 15% of the population. IBS is characterized by recurrent abdominal pain/discomfort without identifiable organic lesions. The pathophysiology of IBS can be multi factors which included immune activation/inflammatory reactions, visceral hypersensitivity, gastrointestinal dysmotility, changes in gut microflora, brain-gut dysfunction and food intolerance. Many short-chain carbohydrates can induce abdominal symptoms, and these carbohydrates were called, Fermentable, Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides and Monosaccharides and Polyols (FODMAPs). Around 50- 86% of the IBS patients will have a clinically meaningful response to the low-FODMAP diet. To evaluate the efficacy of low FODMAP diet. Experimental design: Health control and patients meeting the ROME III criteria for IBS will be enrolled in this study. The basic profiles, patient characteristics, intestinal microbiota profiles and MRI images will be obtained before and after low FODMAP diet intervention.

Primary | irritable bowel syndrome Severity Scale (IBS-SS) | The primary endpoint is the variable used to assess the main objective, the efficacy of low FODMAP diet on gastrointestinal symptoms in IBS (focusing on the elimination phase) change from baseline after 6-8 weeks. The variables used will be the symptom scores of several symptom questionnaires. Ultimately, the efficacy of the diet is based on improvement of symptom scores. Improvement is defined as a 50-point drop on the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptom Severity Scale (IBS-SSS). In this questionnaire, each quesiton is scored from 0-100, with a maximum total score of 500. Patients reporting scores <50 are defined as non-IBS individuals, a score from 50-175 indicated mild disease, 175-300 moderate and >300 severe. | Baseline, end of study approximately 6 to 8 weeks ] |
