09/01/2017 - "For irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), there are multiple applications that provide dietary advice, for example, a low FODMAP (Fermentable Oligo, Mono, Disaccharides And Polyols) diet. "
05/30/2011 - "At the first consultation it is possible by simple means to evaluate the child for common causes and screen for the more severe ones: infection, food allergy, disaccharide malabsorption, general malabsorption (celiac disease and cystic fibrosis), inflammatory bowel disease, and functional disorders (toddler's diarrhoea and irritable colon syndrome). "
01/02/2020 - "To evaluate the effectiveness of a low FODMAP (fermentable oligosaccharides, monosaccharaides, disaccharides and polyols) diet in the relief of symptoms and an improvement of the quality of life in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome in comparison to a standard diet according to the British Dietetic Association's guidelines. "
01/01/2017 - "We searched in ISI Web of Knowledge, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar using the following keywords: "FODMAP" OR "oligosaccharides" OR "disaccharides" OR "Monosaccharaides" in combination with "irritable bowel syndrome" or "IBS" or "Gastrointestinal Disease." The reference lists of the relevant papers were also examined to avoid missing any publication. "
03/01/2019 - "The low FODMAP diet (fermentable oligosaccharides, monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polyols) has shown to be effective in adult patients with irritable bowel syndrome, but there are few studies on paediatric patients. "
