ABSTRACT

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a more frequent disorder in the brain-gut axis interaction in the world. COVID-19 has affected the population's mental health, and its impact on clinical severity in patients with IBS is unknown. Objective: To evaluate the effect of psychosocial stress produced by the pandemic on the severity of gastrointestinal symptoms. Methodology: 54 women and three men with IBS were interviewed by telephone. Factors associated with quality of life, comorbidities, IBS subtype, and COVID-19 diagnosis were asked. Calls were developed between June 2020 to January 2021. Results: 75% had Diarrheal IBS (IBS-D), 67% had comorbidities, 47% with busy work, and 70% in person, five patients (9%) were diagnosed with COVID-19. Of the total, 88% referred to change in gastrointestinal symptoms, 56% increased abdominal pain, and 95% bloating. Abdominal pain was negatively associated with quality of life (p < 0.036), and the incomplete evacuation's sensation positively with difficulty sleeping (p < 0.034). Conclusion: In this study, IBS patients interviewed by telephone reported higher abdominal pain and subjective bloating associated with the pandemic by SARS-CoV-2. Keywords: Irritable


El Síndrome de Intestino Irritable (SII) es uno de los trastornos en la interacción cerebrointestino más frecuentes en el mundo. La pandemia COVID-19 ha afectado la salud mental de la población, siendo desconocido su impacto en la severidad clínica en pacientes con SII. Objetivo: Evaluar el efecto del estrés psicosocial producido por la pandemia en la severidad de síntomas gastrointestinales de pacientes con SII. Metodología: 54 mujeres y 3 hombres con SII fueron entrevistados vía telefónica. Se preguntó por factores asociados a calidad de vida, comorbilidades, subtipo de SII y diagnóstico de COVID-19. Las llamadas se realizaron entre junio de 2020 hasta enero de 2021. Resultados: Un 75% presentó SII Diarreico (SII-D), el 67% comorbilidades, el 47% con trabajo activo y 70% presencial, 5 pacientes (9%) diagnosticados COVID-19. Del total, 88% refirió cambio en síntomas gastrointestinales, 56% aumentó el dolor abdominal y 95% la distensión abdominal. El dolor abdominal se asoció negativamente con la calidad de vida (p < 0,036), y la sensación de evacuación incompleta positivamente con la dificultad para dormir (p < 0,034). Conclusión: En este estudio, los pacientes con SII entrevistados vía telefónica reportaron mayor dolor y distensión abdominal subjetiva asociado a la pandemia por SARS-CoV-2.

ABSTRACT

Although inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) etiology is still unknown, genetic, environmental and immunological factors are implicated. Studies have considered quality of sleep as a risk factor in IBD course. Objective: To determine sleep quality in IBD patients, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients and healthy controls (HC). Methods: Cross sectional study assessing sleep quality in adult patients with IBD, IBS and HC. All patients answered a validated Spanish version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire in order to evaluate sleep quality. A PSQI global score > 5 is indicative of poor sleep quality. Demographic and clinical variables were assessed. Results: The study included 276 patients, 111 with IBD, 85 with IBS and 80 HC. A PSQI score > 5 was observed in 67 percent of IBD and IBS patients and 55 percent of HC. IBD and IBS patients exhibited poorer sleep quality than HC, although results did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.069 and p = 0.076, respectively). In IBD patients, an association between disease activity and sleep quality was observed (p = 0.025). However, when analyzing separately patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn ́s Disease (CD), only in UC patients sleep quality was related with disease activity. The use of sleep medications was significantly higher in IBD and IBS patients compared with healthy controls (p = 0.021 and p = 0.009, respectively). Conclusion: Sleep disturbances are frequent in IBD, IBS patients and even healthy controls. Additionally, IBD patients with active disease, particularly those with UC, exhibit worse sleep quality.


Aunque la etiología de la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII) es aún desconocida, factores genéticos, ambientales e inmunológicos estarían implicados. Estudios han considerado la calidad del sueño como un factor de riesgo en la evolución de la EII. Objetivo: Determinar la calidad del sueño en pacientes con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII), síndrome intestino irritable (SII) y controles sanos (CS). Métodos:Estudio transversal en pacientes adultos con EII, SII y CS. Se evaluó la calidad del sueño mediante el Índice de Calidad del Sueño de Pittsburgh (ICSP), siendo una puntuación global > 5 indicativa de mala calidad del sueño. Variables demográficas y clínicas fueron evaluadas. Resultados:Se incluyeron 276 pacientes, 111 con EII, 85 SII y 80 CS. ICSP > 5 fue observado en 67 por ciento de los pacientes con EII y SII, y 55 por ciento de los CS. Los pacientes con EII y SII mostraron una peor calidad del sueño comparado con CS sin alcanzar significancia estadística (p: 0,069 y p: 0,076, respectivamente). En los pacientes con EII, se observó una asociación entre actividad de la enfermedad y calidad del sueño (p: 0,025). Sin embargo, al analizar por diagnóstico específico, sólo pacientes con colitis ulcerosa (CU) presentaron esta asociación. El uso de medicamentos para dormir fue significativamente mayor en los pacientes con EII y SII comparado con CS (p: 0,021 y p: 0,009, respectivamente). Conclusión:Los trastornos del sueño son frecuentes en pacientes con EII, SII e incluso CS. Pacientes con EII activa, en particular aquellos con CU, presentaron una peor calidad del sueño.

ABSTRACT

El síndrome de intestino irritable es una entidad compleja, de etiología desconocida y fisiopatología parcialmente comprendida, de frecuente ocurrencia y con múltiples tratamientos descritos. Se ha estudiado especialmente la relación de los factores psicosociales con la génesis y presentación de la entidad. El paciente requiere un enfoque que contemple sus síntomas, la reacción ante su enfermedad y su entorno. De los múltiples tratamientos descritos, los medicamentos antidepresivos han recibido considerable atención pero su utilidad clínica no es clara. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar una revisión enfocada de la literatura sobre las bases fisiopatológicas, la presencia de comorbilidad psiquiátrica y la utilidad clínica del uso de antidepresivos en este síndrome.


Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a complex entity whose etiology is unknown and whose physiopathology is incompletely known. It occurs frequently, and many treatments for it have been described. The relation of psycho-social factors to the genesis and presentation of IBS has been studied with special attention. The approach to treating IBS patients requires contemplation of the patient’s symptoms and reactions to his or her illness and environment. Of the multiple treatments for IBS which have been described, antidepressants have received considerable attention although their clinical utility is still not clear. The objective of this work is to review the literature regarding the physiopathological basis of IBS, comorbidities with psychiatric disorders, and the clinical usefulness of antidepressants for treating irritable bowel syndrome.
