No Association Between Allergic Diseases and Constipation in Japanese Ulcerative Colitis Patients : A Cross-Sectional Study
Copyright © 2024, Yagi et al..
BACKGROUND: Constipation is a common gastrointestinal symptom in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Several studies on the general population have demonstrated a link between allergic diseases and constipation. However, evidence regarding the association between allergic diseases and constipation in UC is limited. This study aims to evaluate this issue in Japanese patients with UC.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study recruited consecutive 387 patients with UC. We used a self-administered questionnaire to estimate the prevalence of physician-diagnosed allergic diseases. The definition of constipation was based on Rome I criteria and/or medication for constipation.
RESULTS: The prevalence of constipation was 12.5%. The prevalence rates of asthma, atopic dermatitis, pollen allergy, food allergy, and drug allergy were 11.8%, 9.0%, 36.3%, 6.2%, and 8.3%, respectively. Allergic diseases were not associated with constipation (adjusted odds ratio [OR] with asthma (adjusted OR 0.98 [95% confidence interval [CI] 0.27-2.80]), atopic dermatitis (adjusted OR 0.67 [95% CI 0.10-2.56]), pollen allergy (adjusted OR 0.92 [95% CI 0.41-1.97]), food allergy (adjusted OR 0.76 [95% CI 0.11-2.95]), and drug allergy (adjusted OR 1.06 [95% CI 0.28-3.24]). Additionally, the number of allergic diseases was not associated with the prevalence of constipation.
CONCLUSIONS: In Japanese UC patients, no association between allergic diseases and constipation was found.
