2022, Complementary Therapies in MedicineCitation Excerpt :IBS is the most common chronic gastrointestinal disorder (approximately 10–15% worldwide).3,4 IBS not only negatively affects patients physically, psychologically, socially, and financially,5,6 but also puts a heavy financial burden on our society – direct and indirect costs are approximately $1.35 billion7 and $20 billion,8 respectively, annually. This huge burden is mainly because of IBS’s high recurrence.9

2021, European Journal of Internal MedicineCitation Excerpt :The economic impacts of our finding are potentially substantial given the high prevalence of IBS across global societies with high direct healthcare costs [6]. In Europe, a third of IBS patients will undergo colonoscopy [27], and almost 30% of colonoscopies in the US performed in patients under 50 are performed for IBS [5]. Existing data have been mixed as to the yield of endoscopic procedures in IBS.
