Abstract

Purpose of review: Brain-gut behavior therapies (BGBTs) comprise of several behavioral and psychological therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or gut-directed hypnotherapy that are effective at improving symptom management and quality of life for patients with a range of neurogastroenterology and motility disorders. This review highlights recent advances in BGBT approaches, including novel delivery methods to improve access to care.

Recent findings: Traditional BGBT approaches have evolved to more effectively target GI-specific psychological processes, with exposure techniques and mindfulness-based skills emerging as important elements of treatment. BGBTs are also being delivered in new ways, including digital formats, to expand access to care. Digital therapeutics show promise; however, feasibility of these tools in clinical practice remains unclear. BGBTs continue to evolve to address the complex needs of patients with Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (DGBI) and are being applied more broadly to treat the full spectrum of DGBI conditions. Novel delivery methods show promise; however, further research is needed to identify real-world effectiveness of digital treatments and to identify patients most likely to benefit.

神经胃肠病学和运动障碍的数字和传统行为疗法。

综述目的：脑-肠行为疗法（BGBTs）包括多种行为和心理疗法，如认知行为疗法或肠道导向催眠疗法，可有效改善一系列神经胃肠病和运动障碍患者的症状管理和生活质量。这篇综述强调了gbbt方法的最新进展，包括改善护理可及性的新交付方法。最近的发现：传统的BGBT方法已经发展到更有效地针对gi特定的心理过程，暴露技术和基于正念的技能成为治疗的重要元素。变性人、双性恋者和双性恋者也正在以包括数字格式在内的新方式提供服务，以扩大获得护理的机会。数字疗法大有希望；然而，这些工具在临床实践中的可行性尚不清楚。BGBTs继续发展，以满足肠脑相互作用障碍（DGBI）患者的复杂需求，并正在更广泛地应用于治疗各种DGBI病症。新颖的交付方式显示出希望；然而，需要进一步的研究来确定数字治疗在现实世界中的有效性，并确定最有可能受益的患者。

期刊介绍： As the field of gastroenterology and hepatology rapidly evolves, the wealth of published literature can be overwhelming. The aim of the journal is to help readers stay abreast of such advances by offering authoritative, systematic reviews by leading experts. We accomplish this aim by appointing Section Editors who invite international experts to contribute review articles that highlight recent developments and important papers published in the past year. Major topics in gastroenterology are covered, including pediatric gastroenterology, neuromuscular disorders, infections, nutrition, and inflammatory bowel disease. These reviews provide clear, insightful summaries of expert perspectives relevant to clinical practice. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field.
