Lactulose treatment has long been the standard of care, which presumably acidifies stool and eradicates toxic metabolites. However a third of these
The current study is explorative with the primary aim to find and relate distinct subject metabotypes reflecting tolerance/intolerance to specific food components among IBS-patients by deducing and relating OMICs data patterns (metabolomics and gut microbiota data) to reported severity of
Definition of the sample: Patients over 18 years old admitted to the Diagnostic Unit of the Faculty of Dentistry (DUFD), Viña del Mar campus of the Universidad Nacional Andres Bello (UNAB) during 2016, with a diagnosis of moderate or severe chronic periodontitis, meeting both the inclusion and

Abdominal bloating, gas, belching, distension, and diarrhea are common gastrointestinal symptoms that are reported by at least 1/3rd of patients presenting to gastroenterology clinics. When routine endoscopic and radiological tests are negative1, most of these patients are labeled as irritable bowel
Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) is a highly prevalent but poorly understood condition with limited treatment options. Recent evidence has established small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and alterations in fecal microbiota as potential etiologies in the pathogenesis of
Recurrent gastrointestinal symptoms (bloating, constipation, abdominal pain, diarrhea and flatulence) often interfere with patients' quality of life (QoL) and daily activities. These symptoms have been noted in various diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), celiac disease (CD) and
The Investigators will consecutively enroll adult patients referred to outpatients' Clinics of 21 Centres because of persistence of relevant intestinal and extraintestinal symptoms believed by them to be caused by the ingestion of food containing even low doses of gluten. In their clinical
Up to 15 % of adults in Western society suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and it is the second leading cause, behind the common cold, of workplace absenteeism. This proposal addresses critical knowledge gaps in our understanding of IBS mechanisms. What environmental triggers cause pain
Recently it has been reported that a consistent percentage of the general population consider themselves to be suffering from problems caused by wheat and/or gluten ingestion, even though they do not have celiac disease or wheat allergy. This clinical condition has been named Non-Celiac Gluten

Hepatic encephalopathy is caused by accumulation of nitrogenous substances, primarily ammonia, in the
This project will test the effectiveness of an integrative medicine approach in treating irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Over the course of 18 months, we will recruit 85 participants with IBS in New York City. These participants will be randomized to either a 4-week group-oriented treatment

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is broadly defined as an alteration in mental status and cognitive function occurring in presence of liver failure. The clinical picture of HE arises as a complication of chronic and, more rarely, acute liver disease. HE occurs in
The concept of Colonic Adaptation(CA) to regular carbohydrates has been linked mainly to lactose disaccharide(galactose,glucose) and lactulose(galactose, fructose), a manufactured derivative of lactose. CA is achieved in both cases by short term regular consumption of the targeted sugar which is not
Despite the adoption of norms regarding enteric isolation, nosocomial infectious diarrhea is common in children(1;2). Viral pathogens, especially rotavirus are responsible for most of the cases. Depending on population, type of hospital, and standard of care, the reported incidence rate ranges from
