The pathophysiology of intestinal bacterial overgrowth syndromes.
Archives of internal medicine, 1980Until recently, little attention has been given to the bacterial population of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This neglect was partly due to the relative inaccessibility of this region of the alimentary tract for study, and the limitations of culture methods to detect a flora that was normally not numerous and mostly anaerobic.

Prospective study of bacterial overgrowth syndrome in eight dogs
Veterinary Record, 2006Eight dogs with cutaneous lesions, clinical signs and cytological findings compatible with bacterial overgrowth syndrome were compared with four healthy dogs. The affected dogs were treated for 28 days with 30 mg/kg/day cephalexin.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2010In the last 3 decades, there has been a growing appreciation for the role of gut bacteria in gastrointestinal disease. Although inflammatory bowel disease and peptic ulcer disease have established a role for gut bacteria for more than 20 years, there is now increasing evidence that intestinal bacteria may play a role in irritable bowel syndrome as well.

[Bacterial overgrowth syndrome].
Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 2007Small bowel bacterial overgrowth is a syndrome caused by an abnormal number of bacteria in the upper part of the small bowel and associated with a complex array of clinical symptoms, i. e., chronic diarrhoea, steatorrhoea, macrocytic anaemia, weight loss, and less commonly, protein-losing enteropathy.

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth Syndrome
2012Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is an underrecognized cause of malabsorption in the geriatric population, characterized by the excessive growth of bacteria in the small bowel, sometimes bearing resemblance to colonic flora. Age is a predisposing factor; however additional comorbidity such as diabetes, systemic sclerosis, Parkinson’s ...

Bacterial overgrowth syndrome in myotonic muscular dystrophy is potentially treatable
Muscle & Nerve, 2010AbstractOver one third of patients with myotonic muscular dystrophy type 1 (DM1) have gastrointestinal complaints. The cause is multifactorial, and treatment options are limited. Twenty DM1 patients with gastrointestinal symptoms were screened over a 2‐year period using glucose breath hydrogen testing (GBHT) to evaluate the prevalence of small ...

Treatment for Bacterial Overgrowth in the Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Annals of Internal Medicine, 2006In this issue, Pimentel and colleagues evaluated the efficacy of a newer broad-spectrum nonabsorbable antibiotic, rifaximin, for the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), measuring clinical response for ...

Enteric bacterial flora and bacterial overgrowth syndrome.
Seminars in gastrointestinal disease, 2003Under certain conditions, colonic bacterial flora can colonize the upper small bowel in concentrations sufficient to cause mucosal damage and malabsorption of nutrients, vitamin B12, and fat-soluble vitamins. This situation, known as small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome (SBBOS) may be an under-appreciated cause of malnutrition in elderly people ...

Small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome.
Scandinavian journal of gastroenterology. Supplement, 1983Different aspects of the small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome are reviewed. Special emphasis is put on the newly recognized structural and functional abnormalities of the small intestinal mucosa, abnormalities that may not be fully reversed by effective antimicrobic therapy.
