Recent research suggests that gut microbiota dysbiosis, particularly small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), may play a key role in the generation of IBS symptoms. However, the vast majority of current studies have focused on fecal samples, which primarily reflect the colonic microbiota. The small intestinal microbiota, which is directly involved in nutrient digestion and absorption and more prone to dysbiosis, remains understudied due to the challenges in obtaining samples.', 'detailedDescription': 'This study aims to utilize intestinal sampling capsules to directly collect small intestinal fluid samples from both IBS patients and healthy controls. The community structure, diversity, and compositional differences of the small intestinal microbiota will be analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomic sequencing technologies, while the metabolic profiles of the small intestinal fluid will be detected via untargeted metabolomics.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The cohort included Rome IV-diagnosed IBS patients without confounding surgical or medication history, along with age- and sex-matched healthy controls.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nExperimental Group: Aged 18-65 years, male or female.
