Descrizione
Genetic map of the lactase (LCT) and MCM6 gene region displays the locations of key single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with lactase persistence and non-persistence phenotypes across populations.

Figure 2
Small bowel water content and breath hydrogen concentrations after consuming glucose and fructose drinks are plotted over time, providing reference data for comparison with lactose challenge tests.

Figure 3
Prevalence of lactose malabsorption versus symptomatic lactose intolerance in IBS-D patients is compared, demonstrating that malabsorption does not invariably produce clinical symptoms.

Figure 4
Representative photomicrographs of tryptase-positive mast cells in colonic mucosa compare healthy controls with IBS-D patients, suggesting mast cell involvement in lactose intolerance symptomatology.

Figure 5
Dietary management strategies for lactose intolerance are summarized, including enzyme supplementation, dairy product selection, and gradual tolerance-building approaches.
