Irritable bowel syndrome and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth: meaningful association or unnecessary hype.

World journal of gastroenterology - 14 Mar 2014

Ghoshal Uday C, Srivastava Deepakshi

Abstract excerpt

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition characterized by abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating, and altered stool form and passage. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a condition in which there is overgrowth of bacteria in small bowel in excess of 10⁵ colony forming units per milliliter on culture of the upper gut aspirate. Frequency of SIBO varied from 4%-78% among patients with IBS...
