About

The Rome Foundation Working Team on Food and Diet in DGBI is pleased to have its research work published in a special edition of The American Journal of Gastroenterology.

William D. Chey, MD, and Jan Tack, MD, PhD, both Rome Foundation Board members, were co-chairs of the RF Team that worked with an international group of experts to address the role of dietary therapies in DGBIs.

The Team’s research presents new data that supports dietary therapies and behavioral considerations, updating previous findings published ten years ago by the prior Rome Foundation Working Team.

Article titles in this special edition include:

  • Evidence-Based and Emerging Diet Recommendations for Small Bowel Disorders
  • Pediatric Aspects of Nutrition Interventions for Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction
  • Psychological Considerations in the Dietary Management of Patients With DGBI
  • Evidence-Based and Emerging Dietary Approaches to Upper Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction
  • The Role of Food in the Treatment of Bowel Disorders: Focus on Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Functional Constipation
  • Mechanisms Underlying Food-Triggered Symptoms in Disorders of Gut-Brain Interactions
  • Optimal Design of Clinical Trials of Dietary Interventions in Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction
