Small-bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO) has been implicated in chronic abdominal pain and irritable bowel syndrome in children. This was a retrospective study that aimed to assess the occurrence of SBBO by the lactulose breath hydrogen test in children referred primarily for investigation of carbohydrate malabsorption (n = 287). There were profiles indicative of SBBO in 16% (39/250) of hydrogen-producing children. This indicated that SBBO may be more common in children with gastrointestinal symptoms and apparent carbohydrate malabsorption than previously recognised.
小肠细菌过度生长 (SBBO) 与儿童慢性腹痛和肠易激综合征有关。这是一项回顾性研究，旨在通过乳果糖呼气氢试验评估主要因碳水化合物吸收不良而就诊的儿童（n = 287）中 SBBO 的发生情况。在产氢的儿童中，有 16%（39/250）存在 SBBO 的特征。这表明 SBBO 在有胃肠道症状和明显碳水化合物吸收不良的儿童中可能比以前认为的更为常见。
