Mashup Score: 7Quality of Life and Bidirectional Gut-Brain Interactions in Irritable Bowel Syndrome From Adolescence to Adulthood - 7 day(s) ago
Reports on cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between health-related quality of life (HRQoL), psychological distress, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in the adolescent and young adult general population are few. We aimed to describe cross-sectional associations between HRQoL and IBS in adolescence and young adulthood, and examine bidirectional gut-brain interactions in the transition from childhood to adulthood.

Adhering to a higher number of healthy lifestyle behaviors, such as not smoking, staying physically active and getting optimal sleep, was significantly associated with lower incidence of irritable bowel syndrome, according to data in Gut. “Finding a primary prevention strategy for IBS is essential for reducing its disease burden,” Fai Fai Ho, of the School of Chinese Medicine at The

Mashup Score: 10Novel Symptom Subgroups in Individuals With Irritable Bowel Syndrome Predict Disease Impact and Burden - 3 month(s) ago
Current classification systems based on bowel habit fail to capture the multidimensional nature of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We previously derived and validated a classification system, using latent class analysis, incorporating factors beyond bowel habit. We applied this in another cohort of people with IBS to assess its ability to capture the impact of IBS on the individual, the health care system, and society.

There is increasing evidence that the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), once considered a functional gastrointestinal disorder and now reframed as a disorder of gut–brain interaction,1 has an organic basis. Some patients with IBS exhibit evidence of low-grade mucosal inflammation.2 One of the most well-replicated observations over the last 20 years has been reports of mast cell activation in IBS, with degranulation and a resulting increase in mucosal tryptase and histamine,3 as well as increased proximity of mast cells to visceral nerves, which correlate with abdominal pain severity and frequency. Colonic biopsy supernatants from patients with IBS are able to excite rat nociceptive visceral sensory nerves in vitro.4 The cause of mast cell activation in this group of patients is unknown. However, evidence suggests this could relate to a break in oral tolerance to a dietary antigen, following either an acute enteric infection or a psychological stressor. In a mouse model

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common, debilitating disorder characterized by abdominal pain and disordered bowel habits. Current pharmacologic treatments often provide incomplete symptom relief and may be poorly tolerated. Furthermore, alleviation of gastrointestinal symptoms does not always translate into improved quality of life for IBS patients. Current treatment guidelines recommend brain–gut behavior therapy (BGBT) in conjunction with other IBS therapies, and, in randomized controlled trials, BGBT has been shown to improve symptoms, patient satisfaction, functioning, and quality of life.
