Abstract

A significant proportion of the population (14%-22%) appears to have symptoms compatible with the irritable bowel syndrome, yet only a small number seek medical aid. To explore why some people with bowel dysfunction go to the doctor and others do not, we surveyed 566 healthy subjects. Eighty-six (15%) had bowel dysfunction compatible with irritable bowel syndrome, but the majority of those affected (53 subjects or 62%) had never been to a doctor for these complaints. Although those who consulted physicians for bowel symptoms were more likely to report abdominal pain than those who did not, pain was not sufficient to explain doctor visits. Subjects with bowel dysfunction also reported more nongastrointestinal symptoms, and those with bowel dysfunction who visited physicians were more likely to see physicians for their nongastrointestinal symptoms. The reported higher prevalence of psychopathology among the patient population with irritable bowel syndrome may be due to behavioral influences that lead to health care seeking.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
