Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Objective: This study aims to analyze sleep quality and its association with symptom severity in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).Materials and Methods: A total of 100 subjects, including 50 IBS patients and 50 healthy controls followed at our center between November 2023 and April 2024, were recruited for the study. All participants were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the results were compared between groups. Additionally, the symptom severity of the IBS group was evaluated using the IBS Symptom Severity Scale (IBS-SSS), and its correlation with the PSQI score was analyzed.Results: Of the participants, 18 (24%) were male, and the median age was 40.5 years (range: 28–52). The total PSQI score was significantly higher in the IBS group compared to controls (7.5 vs. 4, p < 0.001). A positive correlation was identified between the total PSQI score and IBS-SSS (r = 0.501, p < 0.001).Conclusion: IBS is a functional bowel disorder that negatively impacts sleep quality. Moreover, the severity of IBS symptoms is associated with poorer sleep quality.
