Ebastine Versus Mebeverine in IBS Patients

IBS - Irritable Bowel SyndromeIBS

Multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial comparing ebastine and mebeverine as treatment of irritable bowel syndrome Trial rationale To perform a randomized superiority trial comparing the clinical efficacy of ebastine and mebeverine To evaluate the impact of treatment with ebastine compared to mebeverine on quality of life and quality-adjusted life years Primary objective To provide further evidence of the superiority of histamine 1 receptor antagonism as novel treatment for patients with non-constipated IBS, as compared to mebeverine, one of the spasmolytics currently used as first line treatment of IBS. Secondary objective(s) To provide evidence that the histamine 1 receptor antagonist ebastine is more effective in reducing abdominal pain compared to the commonly used antispasmodic mebeverine

Effect of Pilates Exercises on Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

purpose: to investigate the effect of pilates exercises on patients with irritable bowel syndrome. Methods fifty patients with IBS will be recruited and randomly assigned into two groups, group A and group B. Patients in both groups will receive a traditional dietary advice for IBS, but group A will receive additional pilates exercises. All patients will be evaluated pre and post treatment for Laboratory investigation for (TNFα and MDA),Bristol stool form , Irritable bowel syndrome symptoms ,quality of life, anxiety and depression and Fatigue.

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation to Relieve Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Without Constipation...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a complex multifactorial functional disorder, whose pathophysiology is largely associated to an impairment of the intestinal microbiota composition, namely dysbiosis. Thus, the modulation of the gut microbiota has been proposed as a possible therapeutic strategy for IBS patients alongside with current available drugs. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a promising strategy to restore intestinal eubiosis. In this randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial patients diagnosed with IBS without constipation are assigned with 1:1 ratio to receive FMT from healthy donor or autologous FMT (placebo group) to assess the effectiveness of FMT on IBS symptoms and quality of life, to evaluate the safety of FMT among IBS patients and to estimate any change in the gut microbiota composition of IBS patients after the FMT.

Postinfectious Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Gelsectan

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common conditions diagnosed in gastroenterology practice. Acute infectious gastroenteritis represents the strongest known risk factor for IBS development; a condition known as post-infection IBS (PI-IBS). PI-IBS patients are more likely than sporadic IBS patients to exhibit a diarrhea-predominant phenotype. The investigators plan to prospectively recruit two groups of patients: patients with diarrhea-predominant post-infectious IBSand patients with diarrhea predominant classical IBS (non PI-IBS) who will be used as controls. Patients included in the study will receive for 28 days a capsule containing Tamarind seed polysaccharide containing xyloglucan, combined with a pea protein reticulated with grape seed extractand a prebiotic, the xilooligosaccharide (Gelsectan, Devintec Sagl) twice daily.

GOS to Reduce Symptom Severity in IBS

Irritable Bowel SyndromeIrritable Bowel Syndrome - Constipation2 more

IBS is a highly prevalent bowel disorder, characterized by recurrent abdominal pain during bowel movements or a change in bowel habits. Typically, IBS patients experience constipation, diarrhoea or a mix of constipation and diarrhoea, as well as symptoms of abdominal bloating or distension. The chronic and bothersome nature of IBS symptoms negatively affects the quality of life of many patients. Because there are currently limited medical treatment options for IBS, it is important to study new treatments. IBS can (in part) be caused by an 'imbalance' of the bacteria residing in the intestinal tract. For instance, there may be a lower proportion of specific bacteria that are generally considered beneficial for a persons health. The consumption of non-digestible food ingredients, such as GOS, may stimulate the growth of these beneficial bacteria. GOS is a type of 'prebiotic', which is known to support health and wellbeing of consumers. By restoring the bacterial balance of the intestinal tract, the symptoms of IBS may be reduced after consumption of GOS. The health effects of the study product (a specific GOS) used in current study was previously investigated in a small group of patients with IBS. Use of the study product indicated a reduction in the patients' symptoms, improvement in the patients' quality of life, and changes in patients' gut bacteria. It is therefore hypothesized that GOS / a specific GOS may reduce the symptom severity of patients with IBS. This study further evaluates how GOS may improve symptoms of IBS.

Sex Differences in Effectiveness of CBT on IBS Project 3

IBS - Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the most well researched and most effective treatment for IBS targeting the brain-gut-microbiome (BGM) axis, and preliminary data show that this therapeutic effect is associated with a reduction of brainstem connectivity with other brain networks. The increased prevalence of IBS in women, the higher rate of comorbid non-GI pain conditions, as well as the higher prevalence in female IBS of increased sensitivity to a variety of internal and external stimuli (multisensory sensitivity) suggest the presence of important sex differences in some of these BGM mechanisms. Research performed by UCLA SCOR during previous funding has established an increased responsiveness of the CRF-Locus Coeruleus (LCC) system in female IBS subjects, suggesting that this central noradrenergic brainstem system plays an important role in IBS pathophysiology. In addition, the study team's earlier research has begun to identify clinical, functional and structural brain mechanisms that may underlie these sex effects. Based on the preliminary data, the overall goal of this project is to use CBT as a probe to study the relationship between specific disease-related alterations of the brain, the gut microbiome, and symptomatic outcome, and identify the role of sex differences in these relationships. Investigators will study male and female IBS patients before and after CBT using the advanced neuroimaging and microbiome technologies of the overall SCOR.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

A Double-blind randomised placebo-controlled pilot study as well as a reversed translational part To investigate whether two faecal transplantations from either allogeneic (healthy) or autologous (own) donor, administered through a nasoduodenal tube, has beneficial effects on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms such as abdominal pain frequency and severity. Secondary objective is to study microbiota changes in faeces samples.

A Personalized Approach to Abdominal Pain in Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Irritable Bowel SyndromeInflammatory Bowel Diseases4 more

Apart from its use to provide insight in IBS disease courses and in clinical research, ESM can provide patients with feedback about individual triggers of their symptoms, and thereby function as part of a personalized therapeutic strategy. This is also true for IBD-IBS. Treatment strategies in IBS and IBD-IBS are largely based on reassurance, identification and elimination of triggering factors, and in more severe cases pharmaco- and psychotherapy. The ESM approach has the potential to increase therapeutic efficacy in IBS and IBD-IBS and will assist patients in disease self-management. The Traqq application can provide more detailed information about the dietary pattern of IBS and IBD-IBS patients. Traqq in combination with ESM will give an overview of abdominal pain and associated symptoms and psychosocial factors are exposed to during the day. The insight provided using ESM and Traqq may improve patient understanding of their personal symptom dynamics and triggers, as well as the physician's insight into the symptom patters of the specific patients, which may aid treatment choice and eventually improve the outcome of any treatment provided in daily clinical care.
