Vitamin D supplementation in people with IBS has no effect on symptom severity and quality of life: results of a randomised controlled trial

Claire E. Williams et al.

Summary: This study suggests that vitamin D supplementation does not improve IBS symptoms in a UK community setting. While there was an increase in vitamin D levels in the intervention group compared to the placebo group, no significant differences were found in the change of IBS symptom severity and quality of life improvement between the two trial arms.

Genetics of irritable bowel syndrome: shifting gear via biobank-scale studies

Michael Camilleri et al.

Summary: Genetic predisposition plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This review provides a comprehensive overview of genetic research in IBS and discusses new concepts in IBS genetics. While genetic research in IBS has been limited and inconclusive, the availability of large international cohorts and population-based biobanks presents unprecedented opportunities for well-powered studies. This review focuses on recent advances in identifying genes involved in digestion, ion channel function, neurotransmitters, neuronal pathways, and gut motility control.

Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Analysis Investigates Causal Associations Between Gut Microbial Genera and Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and Specificity Causal Associations in Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease

Bin Liu et al.

Summary: This study used two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses to investigate the potential causal associations between gut microbial genera and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), ulcerative colitis (UC), or Crohn's disease (CD). The results showed that six bacterial genera were associated with the risk of IBD, UC, or CD. Specifically, Eubacterium ventriosum group was associated with a lower risk of IBD and UC, whereas Coprococcus 2 was associated with a higher risk. Oxalobacter was positively associated with IBD and CD, and Ruminococcaceae UCG014 was positively associated with IBD and CD. Enterorhabdus and Lachnospiraceae UCG001 showed negative associations with IBD and CD. No reverse causation was found in the analysis.

Dominika Glabska et al.

Summary: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are associated with decreased quality of life and mental health problems. Vitamin D supplementation is considered to be effective in improving mental health in affected individuals. Studies have shown a positive effect of vitamin D supplementation on the mental health of IBD and IBS patients, but further research is needed for confirmation.

Yi-Lin Liu et al.

Summary: IBS is a common gastrointestinal disease globally, with current guidelines mainly based on western populations. China, with its large population, has a vast literature on IBS, but linguistic variations have caused these studies to be less known in western medical literature. Research on IBS in the Chinese population can benefit understanding and future studies in this area.

Effects of colon-targeted vitamins on the composition and metabolic activity of the human gut microbiome- a pilot study

Van T. Pham et al.

Summary: Recent research suggests that vitamins, particularly vitamin C, B2, and D, may modulate the human gut microbiome in terms of metabolic activity and bacterial composition. In a study involving human clinical trials and fermentation experiments, vitamin C was found to significantly increase microbial alpha diversity and fecal short-chain fatty acids compared to placebo, indicating a potential role of vitamins in regulating gut microbiota.
