Abstract

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder associated with stress, which may appear by an educational context, given that students are exposed to demands in the academic environment during their education process that may lead to developing diseases. This study reports on the relationship between the IBS and academic stress and compares results of men and women.

Methods: A random survey was made of 561 medicine students at a public university in Mexico. The ROMA III criteria were used for the IBS and the Academic Stress Inventory for academic stress. A multiple regression analysis was made.

Results: The results showed that students with academic overload and lack of time are at risk for developing the IBS.

Conclusions: Therefore, the recommendation is to implement educational programs aiming at self-care as well as gaining knowledge about academic stress-related factors and the physical responses that may result in repercussions with serious consequences for student life such as pain, disease and dropping out of school.

墨西哥一所公立大学医学院学生学业压力与肠易激综合征的预测研究。

背景:肠易激综合征(IBS)是一种与压力相关的功能性胃肠道疾病，由于学生在教育过程中受到学术环境的要求，可能导致疾病的发生，因此可能会出现在教育环境中。这项研究报告了肠易激综合症和学业压力之间的关系，并比较了男性和女性的结果。方法:对墨西哥某公立大学医学院561名学生进行随机调查。IBS采用ROMA III标准，学业压力量表采用学业压力量表。进行多元回归分析。结果:研究结果表明，学业负担过重和缺乏时间的学生有发生肠易激综合征的风险。结论:因此，建议实施旨在自我保健的教育计划，并获得有关学业压力相关因素和身体反应的知识，这些因素和身体反应可能会对学生生活造成严重后果，如疼痛，疾病和辍学。

期刊介绍： Libyan Journal of Medicine (LJM) is a peer-reviewed, Open Access, international medical journal aiming to promote heath and health education by publishing high-quality medical research in the different disciplines of medicine. LJM was founded in 2006 by a group of enthusiastic Libyan medical scientists who looked at the contribution of Libyan publications to the international medical literature and saw that a publication outlet was missing. To fill this gap they launched LJM as a tool for transferring current medical knowledge to and from colleagues in developing countries, particularly African countries, as well as internationally.The journal is still led by a group of Libyan physicians inside and outside Libya, but it also enjoys support and recognition from the international medical community.
