Figure 1 Changes in breath hydrogen concentration during OGTT in the patient with suspicious of small bowel bacterial overgrowth.
An increase of H2 greater than 10 ppm above the baseline was found at 15 min.
Figure 2 Changes in breath hydrogen concentration during OGTT in the patient with suspicious of carbohydrate malabsorption.
Breath H2 concentration increased gradually from the beginning and reached 10 ppm over the baseline at 70 min and later.
Figure 3 Distribution of time when breath hydrogen and/or methane levels increased more than 10 ppm over baseline.
