Almost 80% of patients with functional dyspepsia report meal-related symptoms and are classified as having the postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) variant.

The TDA group will be recommended to eat small, regular meals and reduce the intake of caffeine/alcohol/fizzy drinks, fatty/processed/spicy foods, and fibre. The low FODMAP diet group will be advised to exclude fermentable carbohydrates, which are present in wheat-based products, many fruits/vegetables, pulses, beans, dairy, and sweeteners.\n\nQuestionnaires are to be completed during the 6-week trial, including self-reported adequate relief of dyspeptic symptoms, and the validated Leuven Postprandial Distress Scale (LPDS), Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale, and Nepean Dyspepsia Quality of Life Index.\n\nThe primary endpoint to define clinical response will be evaluated over weeks 4-6 as \\>0.5-point reduction in the PDS subscale of the LPDS (calculated as the mean scores for early satiety, postprandial fullness, and upper abdominal bloating).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '60 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Fulfil Rome IV symptoms criteria for postprandial functional dyspepsia\n* Normal upper gastrointestinal endoscopy within last 3years\n* Online access\n* English literate\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Organic gastrointestinal diseases (e.g. inflammatory bowel disease, GI cancer, coeliac disease)\n* Major abdominal surgery (except laparoscopy, appendectomy, cholecystectomy)\n* Documented H.pylori in the last 3 months\n* History of eating disorders\n* Body mass index \\<20\n* Current dietary interventions\n* Current use of opioids or anti-inflammatory drugs\n* Severe systemic disease (e.g. cardiac, renal, respiratory) necessitating frequent medical consultations)\n* Pregnant\n* Diabetes mellitus\n* Scleroderma\n* Memory impairment'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05810168', 'briefTitle': 'Traditional Dietary Advice Versus Low FODMAP Diet in Postprandial Functional Dyspepsia', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust'}, 'officialTitle': 'Randomised Trial of Traditional Dietary Advice Versus a Low FODMAP Diet in Postprandial Functional Dyspepsia', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'STH20655c'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Traditional Dietary Advice', 'description': 'Recommended to eat smaller, regular meals and reduce the intake of caffeine/alcohol/fizzy drinks, fatty/processed/spicy foods, and fibre', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Dietary modifications']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Low FODMAP diet', 'description': 'FODMAPs are fermentable carbohydrates that increase intestinal water and gas production that, in those with visceral hypersensitivity, induces gastrointestinal symptoms.
