The denominators above reflect the number of cases that included data on adequate treatment response (95 total). The proportion of patients with an adequate treatment response was highest with bismuth or low sulfur diet interventions (76% and 73% respectively), both of which were statistically significant (χ² p=0.012 and 0.012 respectively). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/689be7888454b4140c9bad92/14cb9704-e4b8-4e8e-8d9a-35deb665cd6e/H2S+Registry+Table+2.png Issue 1 - Hydrogen sulfide small intestinal bacterial overgrowth case registry - Make it stand out Table 2: Of the 131 total submissions, 122 provided data on the patient’s symptoms.
