Barostat or syringe-assisted sensory biofeedback training for constipation with rectal hyposensitivity: A randomized controlled trial

Satish S. C. Rao et al.

Summary: Both barostat-assisted sensory training (BAST) and syringe-assisted sensory training (SAST) were effective in improving symptoms in patients with rectal hyposensitivity, with BAST showing greater efficacy. Therapists rated BAST as superior, while patients rated both techniques equally.

Constipation Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Functional Constipation Are Not Discrete Disorders: A Machine Learning Approach

James K. Ruffle et al.

Summary: Machine learning analysis of a large prospective cohort of patients with chronic constipation revealed that irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) and functional constipation (FC) only differ significantly in the presence of abdominal pain, suggesting that they may not be distinct syndromes but rather a single syndrome varying along a single clinical dimension. This has implications for patient recruitment into clinical trials, future disease classifications, and management guidelines.

Clinical Impact of Rectal Hyposensitivity: A Cross-Sectional Study of 2,876 Patients With Refractory Functional Constipation

Paul F. Vollebregt et al.

Summary: The study revealed that 25% of patients with refractory functional constipation have rectal hyposensitivity. There is a linear relationship between the number of elevated sensory thresholds and the severity of constipation, and RH is significantly associated with defecation symptoms and physiological investigations.

Understanding the physiology of human defaecation and disorders of continence and evacuation

Paul T. Heitmann et al.

Summary: Defaecation is a complex process that requires coordination of multiple physiological systems. Disorders of defaecation include constipation, faecal incontinence, and irritable bowel syndrome. Understanding the normal physiology of defaecation is crucial for the management of defaecation disorders.
