irritable bowel syndrome - 2024 ACF Winter

Question

The mnemonic FODMAPs refers to a set of dietary molecules that patients with this condition can avoid in the short term to improve their symptoms and identify triggering foods. For 10 points each:

[10h] Name this condition often comorbid with SIBO that can cause abdominal pain and frequent constipation or diarrhea. Unlike a similarly-named condition, imaging tests cannot diagnose this non-inflammatory syndrome.

ANSWER: irritable bowel syndrome [or IBS; reject “inflammatory bowel disease”; reject “IBD”; reject “Crohn’s disease”; reject “ulcerative colitis”]

[10e] Besides avoiding FODMAPs sugars, IBS patients might also adopt a diet low in these plant-derived compounds, which cannot be digested and help prevent constipation.

ANSWER: dietary fibers [or roughage or bulk]

[10m] IBS can be differentiated from SIBO bacterial infections using this type of test to measure hydrogen levels. Patients consume urea before one of these tests to diagnose H. pylori infections.

ANSWER: breath tests [accept hydrogen breath tests or urea breath tests]
