Research Abstract

Breath gas analysis was performed for the purpose of an establishment of new screening technique for lifestyle-related diseases. The subjects of this study were about one thousand residents of Iwaki area, Hirosaki city, Aomori prefecture. As a result, the association between irritable bowel syndrome and concentration of breath hydrogen. Recently, differential diagnosis between irritable bowel syndrome and abnormal multiplication of intestinal flora has been argued. From the results of this study, the establishment of new screening technique for irritable bowel syndrome was expected.
