Background & Aims

The effects of lactase deficiency on digestive symptoms and diet in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have not been well defined. We assessed lactose absorption and tolerance and the intake of dairy products in healthy volunteers (controls) and patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS (D-IBS).

Methods

Sixty patients diagnosed with D-IBS at the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Hangzhou, China and 60 controls were given hydrogen breath tests to detect malabsorption and intolerance after administration of 10, 20, and 40 g lactose in random order 7-14 days apart; participants and researchers were blinded to the dose. We assessed associations between the results and self-reported lactose intolerance (LI).

Results

Malabsorption of 40 g lactose was observed in 93 % of controls and 92 % of patients with D-IBS. Fewer controls than patients with D-IBS were intolerant to 10 g lactose (3 % vs 18 % ; odds ratio [OR], 6.51; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.38-30.8; P = .008), 20 g lactose (22 % vs 47 % ; OR, 3.16; 95 % CI, 1.43-7.02; P = .004), and 40 g lactose (68 % vs 85 % ; OR, 2.63; 95 % CI, 1.08-6.42; P = .03). H₂ excretion was associated with symptom score (P = .001). Patients with D-IBS self-reported LI more frequently than controls (63 % vs 22 % ; OR, 6.25; 95 % CI, 2.78-14.0; P < .001) and ate fewer dairy products (P = .040). However, self-reported LI did not correlate with results from hydrogen breath tests.

Conclusions

The risk of LI is related to the dose of lactose ingested and intestinal gas production and is increased in patients with D-IBS. Self-reported LI, but not objective results from hydrogen breath tests, was associated with avoidance of dairy products. , Number: .
