Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of peptic ulcer (PU) and functional dyspepsia (FD) in patients with dyspepsia stands at 15-25% and 50-70%, respectively, in western countries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution of PU and FD in Iranian dyspeptic patients and their relation to risk factors.Methods: A total of 300 patients (160 males and 140 females) with a mean age of 35.58 and a range of 18-72 years were included in this study. After undergoing endoscopic examination, the patients completed a questionnaire concerning abdominal complaints, health, life style, diet and social status.Results: Of the 300 patients studied, 40% with a mean age of 40.1±13.6 years, and 60% with a mean age of 40.7±14.2 years were afflicted with PU and FD, respectively. Smoking and the use of NSAIDs were more common in PU patients than in FD patients (P<0.05). Tranquillizers were used more frequently by FD patients than PU patients (P=0.12). Epigastric pain was the most common symptom in both groups (P<0.05). The prevalence of all symptoms, except pyrosis (P=0.019), was the same in both groups. Past family history of dyspepsia was the same in both groups.Discussion: FD and PU constitute two different types of dyspepsia, which have common clinical manifestations and are related to such factors as sex and lifestyle (cigarette smoking and the use of NSAIDs). As suggested by the results of this study, these factors might be involved in the etiology of FD and PU.
