These methods also identify metabolic pathways linked to hydrogen and hydrogen-sulfide production, offering more precise phenotyping of SIBO in SSc, although they currently remain research tools rather than routine diagnostics [66,67]
When to Consider Testing The Role of the SIBO Breath Test A SIBO breath test effectively measures gases including methane and hydrogen after consuming the test substrate
