The purpose of this article is not only to review irritable bowel syndrome, and the role that the microbiome can play in its symptoms, but also to examine new emerging pathways that could blaze the trail for more individualized treatments.

Data analysis was carried out by two researchers according to the hermeneutic phenomenological approach. The nutritional experiences of the informants were organized under three themes, namely, First Feeding Experiences may remain, Gastrointestinal Problems, and Coping Methods. It was determined that individuals face various problems after total gastrectomy, both physical and psychological. They have developed coping methods to deal with the nutritional problems they experience.

This study aimed to identify the prevalence and risk factors of functional gastrointestinal disorders in university students. A cross-sectional study was conducted in January 2021 at two universities in a South Korean city and included 493 participants. The Rome IV criteria (for functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome) and the Korean gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (for gastroesophageal reflux disease) were used to define each disease. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multivariate logistic regression. Gastroesophageal reflux disease, functional dyspepsia, and irritable bowel syndrome prevalence was 18.5%, 7.5%, and 6.5%, respectively, in university students. In multivariate analysis, school year (fourth) (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 2.27 [0.25, 0.78]), underlying disease (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 2.92 [1.42, 6.04]), physical activity less than once weekly (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 4.84 [1.04, 22.45]), very irregular meals (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 4.02 [1.54, 10.49]), overeating more than 5 times weekly (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 3.37 [1.19, 9.56]), and academic stress (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 1.02 [1.01, 1.03]) were risk factors for functional gastrointestinal disorders.

The study was conducted in a training and research hospital in Türkiye with 258 patients who had experienced gastrointestinal symptoms and were scheduled for upper endoscopy and/or colonoscopy. The data were obtained by using an information form, the Brief Resilience Scale, the Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale, the Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale, and the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale. A statistically positive and significant relationship was found between the Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale and the Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale (r = 0.376; p < .05). It was determined that there was a statistically significant negative relationship between the mean Brief Resilience Scale and the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale scores (r = -0.150; p < .05). In addition, a positive and significant relationship was found between the mean Brief Resilience Scale and the Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale scores (r = 0.374; p < .05). Psychological factors and healthy living behaviors thus clearly affect gastrointestinal system symptoms.
