Core Tip |
The sensitivity of the hydrogen breath test is higher with glucose than lactulose as the substrate. We recommend using the hydrogen breath test in this experiment for measuring intestinal flora but replacing the test substrate with glucose. We recommend that the authors clarify the relation and concept of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and gut dysbiosis. When exploring the relationship between gut dysbiosis and SIBO in cirrhosis, the etiology of SIBO should be considered. After estimating the sample size, we determined that the sample size included in the experiment was small and should be expanded. |
