Bakomliggande dysbios kan vara orsak till vissa former av IBS. Patienter blev symtomfria efter tillförsel av mikrobiota
Sammanfattning
Two cases of post-infectious IBS were successfully treated with transplantation of an anaerobic cultivated human intestinal microbiota. This suggests that a
dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota could be the culprit at least in some cases of IBS. Resetting the gut microbiota might be a possible solution for these
patients that otherwise may face a life-long reduction in quality of life. Studies have suggested that conditions as varied as chronic constipation, metabolic
syndrome, autoimmunity, asthma, cardiovascular disease and Crohn’s disease may be caused by intestinal dysbiosis. If this is the case we would like to
suggest a new term: Dysbiotic Bowel Syndrome (DBS).
