description The pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has not yet been fully elucidated. We reviewed articles addressing IBS that have been published in the last 2 years and selected papers related to IBS pathophysiology and treatment. Studies of intestinal bacteria, low-grade mucosal inflammation, and increased mucosal permeability—factors involved in the pathophysiology of IBS—have been conducted. In addition, the involvement of intestinal bacteria in IBS pathology has been clarified; many studies of treatments related to intestinal bacteria have been reported. Moreover, several studies address the effect on IBS of antidepressants and psychotherapy through the brain–gut axis. The contents of these papers are described in this narrative review.
