“…In the group of people with a predominance of hydrogen-producing microbiota, there are fewer men than women (30.8 % vs. 69.2 %), in the group with a predominance of methane-producing microflora, the ratio of men and women was 27.4 % vs. 72.6 %, and in the group with a predominance of hydrogen- and methane-producing microbiota, this ratio was 16.6 % vs. 83.4 %, respectively.Antibacterial therapy after confirmation of the diagnosis is carried out in accordance with national clinical guidelines; probiotics, mainly Saccharomyces boulardii, are prescribed to prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea.Conclusions. The widespread introduction of various versions of the breath test into the work of healthcare institutions will make it possible to overcome diagnostic difficulties in relation to verification of this diagnosis, substantiate and individualize the approach to prescribing antibacterial and probiotic therapy.…”
