METHODSParticipants with IBS (Rome III) were randomized to two groups. Group I commenced a low FODMAP diet at baseline. At three months, group II, so far a comparator group, crossed over to a low FODMAP diet while group I started re-challenging foods. All patients completed the IBS SSS (IBS symptom severity scoring system, 0-500 points increasing with severity), IBS QoL questionnaire (0-100 increasing with QoL), a FODMAP specific food frequency questionnaire and provided a stool sample at baseline, three and six months for microbiome analysis. RESULTSFifty participants were enrolled into group I (n = 23) or group II (n = 27). Participants in both groups were similar in baseline values but with more men in group I. There was a significantly lower IBS SSS (275.6 ± 63.6 to 128.8 ± 82.5 vs 246.8 ± 71.1 to 203.6 ± 70.1) (P < 0.0002) and increased QoL (68.5 ± 18.0 to 83 ± 13.4 vs 72.9 ± 12.8 to 73.3 ± 14.4) (P < 0.0001) in group I vs group II at 3 mo. The reduced IBS SSS was sustained at 6 mo in group I (160 ± 102) and replicated in group II (124 ± 76). Fiber intake decreased on the low FODMAP diet (33 ± 17 g/d to 21 ± 8 g/d) (P < 0.01) and after re-introducing FODMAP containing foods increased again to 27 ± 9 g/d. There was no change seen in the intestinal microbiome when participants adopted a low FODMAP diet. CONCLUSIONThis study demonstrated that a reduction in FODMAPs improves symptoms in IBS and this improvement can be maintained while reintroducing FODMAPs.展开更多

文摘目的分析对肠易激综合征(Irritable Bowel Syndrome,IBS)患者用低可发酵的单糖、双糖、低聚糖和多元醇等饮食干预对胃肠道症状的影响。方法将2020年8月-2021年12月接收治疗的IBS患者78例作为观察对象,按照随机数字表法分为观察组(低FODMAP饮食)和对照组(常规饮食指导),比较两组分别干预后的病情严重程度调查表(Severity severity questionnaire,IBS-SSS)、日常生活能力量表(Activity of Daily Living Scale,ADL)、胃肠道症状改善时间(腹痛、腹泻、排便改变)。结果两组干预前的IBS-SSS比较并无统计学意义(P>0.05),干预后,观察组IBS-SSS评分(53.69±12.15)分相较对照组(85.45±11.12)分更低,对比有统计学意义(P<0.05),干预后,观察组胃肠症状改善时间包括排便(2.62±0.23)周、腹痛(1.72±0.23)周、腹泻(2.41±0.23)周时间更短,对比有统计学意义(P<0.05),两组干预前的ADL评分比较并无差异,无统计学意义(P>0.05),干预后,观察组ADL评分更高,对比有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论低FODMAP饮食对IBS患者可缩短患者胃肠道症状改善时间,提高患者日常生活质量,减轻患者病情严重程度。
