Core Tip |
It is generally accepted that abdominal pain is the most predominant symptom of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and Rome IV eliminated abdominal discomfort as diagnostic criteria for IBS. Asian studies showed about one-third of IBS patients diagnosed using Rome III criteria had abdominal discomfort alone. In this study, we compared bowel symptoms, extraintestinal symptoms, IBS-quality of life, psychological status and healthcare-seeking behaviors, and efficacy between the abdominal pain and abdominal discomfort groups expecting to find a difference between the two groups but did not. We also assessed risk factors for symptom reporting for IBS patients. |
