Aspects on Self-Reported Symptoms in Irritable Bowel Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study
Self-reported IBS was highly prevalent in our region, with risk factors for its presence being similar to those reported in previous studies. Sleep deprivation was highly prevalent in IBS patients, albeit not leading to increased prescription of relevant therapies for aid of sleep in these patients. However, marital separation and city-dwelling seemed to confer a higher self-reported IBS status. These issues should be investigated using more robust, Rome IV criteria-centered questionnaires in the future.
