Sacral Nerve Modulation Has No Effect on the Postprandial Response in Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:Irritable bowel syndrome is a common gastrointestinal disorder with a global prevalence of approximately 11%. Onset or worsening of symptoms following digestion is one of the characteristics of the condition. The present study aimed at evaluating the postprandial sensory and motor response before and after treatment with sacral nerve modulation. Patients and Methods:Twenty-one irritable bowel syndrome patients, 12 diarrhea-predominant and 9 mixed, were eligible for a 6-week sacral nerve modulation test period. Patients were investigated with multimodal impedance planimetry including a standardized meal at baseline and at the end of 2 weeks of suprasensory stimulation embedded in the 6-week sacral nerve modulation period. Results:There was no statistical significant difference in the sensory response to heat or cold before and after sacral nerve modulation, p>0.05. At baseline, wall tension increased after the meal (mean 124.79 [range 82.5 to 237.3] mmHg.mm before the meal, mean 207.76 [range, 143.5 to 429] mmHg.mm after the meal), p=0.048 indicating a postprandial response. During sacral nerve modulation, the postprandial increase in wall tension did not reach statistical significance (mean 86.79 [range 28.8 to 204.5] mmHg.mm before the meal, mean 159.71 [range 71.3 to 270.8] mmHg.mm after the meal), p=0.277. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the postprandial wall tension at baseline and during sacral nerve modulation, p=0.489. Likewise, we found no difference between pressure or stretch ratio at baseline and during sacral nerve modulation, p>0.05. Conclusion:Sacral nerve modulation does not exert its positive treatments effects in diarrhea-predominant and mixed irritable bowel syndrome through a modulation of the postprandial response.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Increased concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) can be detected in the systemic circulation after a meal and may be involved in the physiological control of gastrointestinal motility. Abnormalities of 5-HT release after a meal might explain some of the postprandial symptoms associated with the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). AIM: To investigate the effect of a standard meal on plasma 5-HT and urinary 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) concentrations in patients with diarrhoea predominant IBS and in healthy volunteers. METHODS: After an overnight fast, six volunteers and five patients with IBS were given a carbohydrate-rich meal. Blood and urine samples were taken before and for four hours after the meal. Platelet-poor plasma 5-HT and urinary 5-HIAA were analysed by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography with fluorometric detection. 5-HIAA was expressed as a ratio with urinary creatinine concentration, which was measured by spectrophotometry. RESULTS: During the four hour postprandial period, 5-HT concentrations were significantly higher in patients with IBS than in healthy volunteers at 0.5 hours (p < 0.05), 2 hours (p < 0.05) and 2.5 hours (p < 0.05). 5-HT was not detected in the plasma in the fasting state in patients or volunteers. Median peak 5-HT in patients with IBS (359 (198-796) nmol/l) was significantly greater than volunteers (83 (7-190)) (p < 0.05). "Area under the curve" for 5-HT detection was greater for patients with IBS (317 (138-771)) than for healthy volunteers (51 (4-129); p < 0.05). The duration of the 5-HT peak was significantly longer in patients with IBS (3 (1-3) hours) than in the healthy volunteers (1 (1-1) hours; p < 0.01). Postprandial urinary median 5-HIAA values in controls (5.6 (5.5-5.8) mumol/mmol creatinine) and patients with IBS (3.0 (2.5-6.8) mumol/mmol creatinine) were not significantly different from preprandial values (controls: 5.9 (5.5-6.6) mumol/mmol creatinine; patients with IBS: (6.2 (2.4-9.3) mumol/mmol creatinine). CONCLUSION: These findings indicate that there may be a difference in the way that 5-HT is released in patients with diarrhoea predominant IBS, and could suggest a possible role for 5-HT in the postprandial symptoms of these patients.

Project description:BackgroundThe intestinal microbiota is thought to be involved in the occurrence of inflammatory bowel disease in remission with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-type symptoms, but the specific distinct profile of these bacteria remains unclear. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate the fecal microbiota profiling in patients with these diseases.MethodsFecal samples from 97 subjects, including Crohn's disease patients in remission with IBS-type symptoms (CDR-IBS+) or without IBS-type symptoms (CDR-IBS-), ulcerative colitis patients in remission with IBS-type symptoms (UCR-IBS+) or without IBS-type symptoms (UCR-IBS-), IBS patients and healthy controls, were collected and applied 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) gene sequencing. The V4 hypervariable regions of 16S rDNA gene were amplified and sequenced by the Illumina MiSeq platform. The differences in the sample diversity index in groups were analyzed with R software.ResultsThe richness of the intestinal microbiota in the CDR-IBS group was markedly lower than those in the control and IBS groups based on the analysis of observed species and the Chao index (P < 0.05). The observed species index in the CDR-IBS+ group was higher than that in the CDR-IBS- group (median index: 254.8 vs 203, P = 0.036). No difference was found in alpha diversity between UCR patients with IBS-type symptoms and those without related symptoms. At the genus level, the number of Faecalibacterium in CDR patients with IBS-type symptoms increased significantly, while Fusobacterium decreased versus those without such symptoms (mean relative abundance of Faecalibacterium: 20.35% vs 5.18%, P < 0.05; Fusobacterium: 1.51% vs 5.2%, P < 0.05). However, compared with the UCR-IBS- group, the number of Faecalibacterium in the UCR-IBS+ group decreased, while the number of Streptococcus increased, but there was no significant difference in the genus structure. The abundance and composition of the microbiota of IBS patients were not distinct from those of healthy controls.ConclusionsThe IBS-type symptoms in CD patients in remission may be related to an increase in Faecalibacterium and a decrease in Fusobacterium. The IBS-type symptoms in UC patients in remission cannot be explained by changes in the abundance and structure of the intestinal microbiota.
