| Core Tip |
Our study represents the largest retrospective cohort to date of 932 patients evaluated for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) using the D-Xylose breath test (XBT). We found that a positive test for SIBO was seen more frequently in elderly females than males and that lower body mass index, reflux disease, ulcer disease, gastroparesis, and steroid use were more frequently seen in patients who tested positive with the XBT compared to those with a negative test. Our study did not show any association between SIBO and irritable bowel syndrome or independent narcotic or proton-pump inhibitor usage as has previously been reported by some investigators. |
