Analysis of Postprandial Symptom Patterns in Subgroups of Patients With Rome III or Rome IV Functional Dyspepsia

摘要

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Among patients with functional dyspepsia (FD), there is overlap in symptoms between those in the Rome III subgroups of postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) and those with epigastric pain syndrome (EPS). The Rome IV consensus proposed to incorporate all patients with postprandial symptoms into the PDS group. We aimed to evaluate the assessment of meal-related dyspepsia symptoms in patients with FD according to the Rome III vs Rome IV subdivisions.
