Patients completed the IBS symptom severity system (IBS-SSS) and short IBD quality of life questionnaire (SIBDQ) at weeks 0 and 6. The primary end-point was response rates (at least 50-point reduction) in IBS-SSS at week 6 between groups; secondary end-point was the impact on quality of life.RESULTSEighty-nine patients, 67 (75%) women, median age 40, range 20-70 years were randomised: 44 to LFD group and 45 to ND, from which 78 patients completed the study period and were included in the final analysis (37 LFD and 41 ND). There was a significantly larger proportion of responders in the LFD group (n = 30, 81%) than in the ND group (n = 19, 46%); (OR = 5.30; 95%CI: 1.81-15.55, P < 0.01). At week 6, the LFD group showed a significantly lower median IBS-SSS (median 115; inter-quartile range [IQR] 33-169) than ND group (median 170, IQR 91-288), P = 0.02. Furthermore, the LFD group had a significantly greater increase in SIBDQ (median 60, IQR 51-65) than the ND group (median 50, IQR 39-60), P < 0.01.CONCLUSIONIn a prospective study, a low-FODMAP diet reduced IBS-like symptoms and increased quality of life in patients with IBD in remission.展开更多

The questionnaires were sent and returned by regular mail and gathered information on recall of dietarytreatment, efficacy, symptoms, adherence, satisfaction, change in disease course and stool type, and quality of life. Before study enrolment all patients had to sign an informed written consent.RESULTS: One hundred and eighty patients were included, 131(73%) IBS and 49(27%) IBD patients. Median age was 43 years(range: 18-85) and 147(82%) were females. Median follow-up time was 16 mo(range: 2-80). Eighty-six percent reported either partial(54%) or full(32%) efficacy with greatest improvement of bloating(82%) and abdominal pain(71%). The proportion of patients with full efficacy tended to be greater in the IBD group than in the IBS group(42% vs 29%, P = 0.08). There was a significant reduction in patients with a chronic continuous disease course in both the IBS group(25%, P < 0.001) and IBD group(23%, P = 0.002) along with a significant increase in patients with a mild indolent disease course of 37%(P < 0.001) and 23%(P = 0.002), respectively. The proportion of patients having normal stools increased with 41% in the IBS group(P < 0.001) and 66% in the IBD group(P < 0.001). One-third of patients adhered to the diet and high adherence was associated with longer duration of dietary course(P < 0.001). Satisfaction with dietary management was seen in 83(70%) IBS patients and 24(55%) IBD patients. Eightyfour percent of patients lived on a modified LFD, where some foods rich in FODMAPs were reintroduced展开更多
