Treatment Summary:A total of 52 PI-IBS patients defined by Rome III criteria and 38 healthy volunteers were recruited. Those with a history of abdominal surgery (except hernia, C-section, hysterectomy, appendectomy or cholecystectomy), inflammatory bowel disease, microscopic colitis, or celiac disease were excluded. Additionally, recruited volunteers were not pregnant at the time of the study. Use of tobacco or alcohol for the duration of the study was prohibited. Following medications were prohibited 7 days prior to study participation: those affecting gastrointestinal transit, serotonergic agents, anti-cholinergic agents, antimuscarinics, narcotics, peppermint oil, antibiotics or new probiotics. Ingestion of artificial sweeteners such as SplendaTM (sucralose), Nutrasweet TM (aspartame), lactulose or mannitol was prohibited for 2 days before the start and during the study. All subjects taking part in the study were asked to complete the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and a 7-day bowel diary. All participants completed the Hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). PI-IBS patients also completed the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), IBS Symptom severity scale (IBS-SSS), IBS-quality of life (IBS-QoL) questionnaire as well as the Long Bowel Disease questionnaire (BDQ). Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board approved human studies and all participants provided a written informed consent (IRB protocol: 12-006529; ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03266068).
