PBAD is not associated with a defect of BA absorption but the mechanism has been suggested to be a primary defect in feedback inhibition of hepatic BA synthesis, consequent to impairment in fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) secretion by the ileum. PBAD has been identified in excess of 25% of patients with diarrhoea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome and may have a prevalence of up to 1% in the population. Type 2 is the primary form (PBAD) in patients with a histologically normal ileum and type 3 is heterogeneous group of patients with BAD and another gastrointestinal diagnosis, most commonly cholecystectomy. Type 1 occurs secondary to BA malabsorption in the terminal ileum due to inflammation or surgical resection, as commonly seen in Crohn’s disease and is termed secondary bile acid diarrhoea (SBAD). 1 BAD has been categorised into three types that reflect the contribution of other gastrointestinal diseases. BAD was not significantly associated with colonic adenoma/carcinoma or with microscopic colitis.īile acid diarrhoea (BAD) is a common disorder characterised by chronic watery diarrhoea and is a consequence of increased delivery of bile acids (BAs) to the colonic lumen. Overall, BAD had an OR of 2.0 for gallstones/cholecystectomy (p<0.05). The median SeHCAT values were lower in those with gallstones (3.8%, p<0.0001), or gallstones/cholecystectomy (7.2%, p<0.001), compared with normal gallbladder imaging (14%). In 176 subjects with gallbladder imaging, 27% had gallstones, 7% had a prior cholecystectomy and 34% either of these. Of 578 patients, 303 (52%) had BAD, defined as a SeHCAT 7d retention value 31 ng/mL with imaging showing fatty liver (p40 IU/L.
