Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in one of the most frequent functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) with a prevalence in 10 to 20%, of cases in some developed countries. The Rome Foundation has drawn up Rome III criteria, diagnostic questionnaires and scoring algorithm for FGIDs, applicable in clinical practice and population studies. The aim of this research is to determine the presence of IBS in Osjecko-baranjska County and the effect of anthropometric, demographic and socioeconomic factors. 703 subjects selected in the systematic sample filled in the Rome III diagnostic questionnaire for IBS. Prevalence of IBS was recorded in 29.16%, in men in 21.39%, and in women in 36.69% of cases, anxiety and depression in 26.34% and 25.85%. Persons suffering from IBS were on average shorter, weighed less and had a lower BMI than persons not showing signs of IBS. Women have 2.101 times greater chance of risk of IBS, and with an increase in the number of members in the household the risk of IBS increases 1.139 times. Rome III survey questionnaire is an acceptable method for diagnosing IBS and identifying persons showing signs of structural changes in order to provide further treatment. |
