Description
Juliette De Avila and co-authors check whether a stool test can flag hidden gut swelling in people with spine arthritis. These patients lack bowel disease on paper, yet gut harm may brew in silence. Their 2024 study ran the stool test on 180 patients, with deep scope views for a fifth of them.
About a fourth of patients had raised stool marks, and a sixth had high marks. High marks tied to worse daily function and disease scores. Scope views showed lost blood vessel patterns in the small gut in most of those checked. That loss tied to raised marks, belly pain, and swelling under the microscope. Worn gut villi also tracked with high marks. The authors back the stool test as a cheap flag for gut harm.
