The recent study published in the examines the interplay among the neuroendocrine axis, gut microbiota, inflammatory markers, and gastrointestinal symptoms in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). By integrating all these factors into a single study, this approach reflects the modern concept of functional gastrointestinal disorders as disorders of the gut-brain interaction to be approached in a multiparametric manner, also incorporating non-gastroenterological elements and extending evaluations to parameters related to the neuroendocrine axis. This invited letter to the editor summarizes the main results of the aforementioned study and highlights its multiparametric approach, including variables not strictly gastroenterological, in the study of IBS, and discusses its strengths and limitations.

Objectives: To explore how letters distributed in population bowel cancer screening programmes could be modified to increase bowel cancer screening uptake, from the perspective of screening invitees.
Methods: Sixty-three people aged 48-74 years discussed their preferences regarding letter design and content during semi-structured interviews aided by various example letters designed to notify of, or invite participants to, the Australian National Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (NBCSP). Deductive thematic analysis, informed by the Integrated Screening Action Model (I-SAM), was used to interpret participant feedback and provide recommendations for improvements to the letters in alignment with the theoretical stages of bowel cancer screening behaviour (engaging, deciding, and completing the screening kit).
