Proton pump inhibitor therapy did not increase the prevalence of small-bowel injury: A propensity-matched analysis.

Previous studies have reported that the suppression of acid secretion by using proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) results in dysbiosis of the small-bowel microbiota, leading to exacerbated small-bowel injuries, including erosions and ulcers.
