Pages

  200-206

Abstract

 BACKGROUND: The symptoms of IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME (IBS) are common in the general population. The aim of this population-based study was to determine the PREVALENCE of IBS and describe the associated factors including demographic, LIFE STYLE and health-seeking behaviors in Shiraz city, southern Iran.METHODS: From April to September 2004, 1978 subjects aged > 35 years old completed a validated and reliable questionnaire on IBS.RESULTS: The PREVALENCE rate of IBS was 10.9%, higher in females, in 35-44 years old age group and among subjects eating fast food (14.1%) but was lower in those taking more fruits and vegetables (10.5%). The occurrence of anxiety, nightmare and restlessness was also significantly higher in subjects with IBS. It had an association with psychological distress and recurrent headaches but not with drinking tea/coffee, smoking or physical activity.CONCLUSIONS: In our area, IBS was correlated with gender, age, psychological distress, recurrent headaches and consumption of fast foods that necessitate health planning programs by health policy makers.
