The Rome criteria are achieved and finally issued through a consensual process, using the Delphi method (or Delphi technique). The Rome Foundation process is an international effort to create scientific data to help in the diagnosis and treatment of functional gastrointestinal disorders, also known as disorders of gut-brain interaction.

Mucosal barrier reinforcement in response to oral 5-HTP was absent in IBS compared to controls. [197] IBS/IBD individuals are less often HLA DQ2/8 positive than in upper functional gastrointestinal disease and healthy populations. [198] Efficacy of mast cell directed therapies in irritable bowel syndrome is an area of ongoing research. [199]
A high frequency of diabetes patients have anti-transglutaminase antibodies [51] along with increased levels of gluten specific T-cells in T1D patients. From an evolutionary point of view it is difficult to explain the high association of T1D and DQ2.5 given negatively selective nature of the disease in NW European population given the number ...
