Regions which showed relatively more cerebral activation for the balloon distension vs rest condition in (A) irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients compared with healthy controls, (second level ANOVA, P < 0.001 uncorrected, spatial extent k = 10 voxels), (B) healthy controls compared with IBS patients, (C) constipation-predominant IBS (IBS-C) compared with diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) patients, and (D) IBS-D compared with IBS-C patients. Second level ANOVA, P < 0.01 uncorrected, spatial extent k = 10 voxels. MTG, middle temporal gyrus; Inf. OFC, inferior orbito-frontal cortex; SPL, superior parietal lobule; FG, fusiform gyri; SMA, supplementary motor area.
