“…However, the microbial signatures of small bowel in health and disease are not well‐established due to the difficulty of sampling, especially for the distal segment. Consequently, the duodenal flora is commonly used as a “gold standard” for the diagnosis of SIBO, which considered to partially represent the proximal small intestinal microbiota . It may be hard to identify the mild SIBO with excessive bacteria only in the distal small bowel without proximal invasion.…”

“…Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth is frequently associated with GI symptoms such as bloating, distension, flatulence, abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea and weight loss and may even cause structural changes such as atrophy of small intestinal villi with subsequent alterations of small intestinal absorption. SIBO symptoms overlap with those of IBD, often making it unclear if it is the cause, consequence or an epiphenomenon in relation to the other disorder.…”
