Abstract
The diagnostic work-up of pediatric irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional abdominal pain-not otherwise specified (FAP-NOS) commonly includes invasive tests for discrimination from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). As this carries a high burden on patients, an ongoing need exists for development of noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers for IBS and FAP-NOS. Several studies have shown microbiota alterations in IBS/FAP, which are considered to be reflected by fecal volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The object of the study was to evaluate whether pediatric IBS/FAP-NOS could be discriminated from IBD and healthy controls by fecal VOC analysis. IBS/FAP-NOS was diagnosed according to the ROME IV criteria, and de novo IBD patients and healthy controls (HCs) aged 4 to 17 years were matched on age and sex. Fecal VOCs were analyzed by means of field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometry. Fecal VOCs of 15 IBS/FAP-NOS, 30 IBD (15 ulcerative colitis, 15 Crohn's disease) patients and 30 HCs were analyzed and compared. Differentiation between IBS/FAP-NOS and IBD was feasible with high accuracy (area under the curve [AUC], 0.94; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.88-1; P < 0.00001). IBS/FAP-NOS profiles could not be differentiated from HCs (AUC, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.41-0.77; P = 0.167), whereas IBD profiles could with high accuracy (AUC, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.93-1; P < 0.00001). Pediatric IBS/FAP-NOS could be differentiated from IBD by fecal VOC analysis with high accuracy, but not from healthy controls. The latter finding limits the potential of fecal VOCs to serve as a diagnostic biomarker for IBS/FAP-NOS. However, VOC could possibly serve as additional noninvasive biomarker to differentiate IBS/FAP-NOS from IBD.
