ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: la fisiopatología de los desórdenes gastrointestinales funcionales (DGF) incluye un eje intestino-cerebro alterado. Objetivo: determinar la prevalencia y posibles asociaciones de ansiedad en niños con DGF. Metodología: estudio de prevalencia realizado en ciudades colombianas en niños entre 8 y 18 años a quienes se les identificaron DGF según los Criterios de Roma III y ansiedad por medio del State Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children. Se incluyeron variables sociodemográficas y familiares. El análisis estadístico incluyó medidas de tendencia central, análisis uni- y multivariados, y regresión logística, teniendo en cuenta una p < 0,05 como significativa. Resultados: se incluyeron 1496 niños, 12,7 ± 2,1 años, 50,5 % niñas, 79,9 % con ansiedad transitoria y 51,5 % con tendencia a experimentar estados de ansiedad. Hubo predominio para el estado-ansiedad en adolescentes masculinos y para el rasgo-ansiedad en adolescentes femeninas con algún DGF. Los posibles factores de riesgo fueron la edad y el sexo para estado-ansiedad, y la edad, el sexo y los DGF para el rasgo-ansiedad. Conclusiones: cerca de la mitad de los niños tuvo tendencia a presentar estados de ansiedad, con predominio de las adolescentes femeninas y con factores de riesgo como la edad, el sexo y tener algún DGF.


Abstract Introduction: The pathophysiology of functional gastrointestinal disorders includes alteration of the gut-brain axis. Objective: This study measures prevalence and of functional gastrointestinal disorders and discusses possible associations with anxiety in children with these conditions. Methodology: This is a prevalence study of children between 8 and 18 years of age diagnosed with functional gastrointestinal disorders as defined by the Rome III Criteria and anxiety as defined by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children in several Colombian cities. Sociodemographic and family variables were included. Statistical analyses included measures of central tendency, univariate and multivariate analysis, and logistic regression, with p <0.05 established as significant. Results: The study included 1,496 children of whom 50.5% were girls. The boys average age was 12.7 ± 2.1 years, 79.9% had suffered transitory anxiety, and 51.5% had tendencies to experience states of anxiety. State/anxiety predominated in male adolescents while trait/anxiety predominated in female adolescents with functional gastrointestinal disorders. Possible risk factors for state/anxiety were age and sex. Possible risk factors for trait/anxiety were age, sex, and functional gastrointestinal disorders. Conclusions: About half of the children tended to states of anxiety. Female adolescents predominated with risk factors of age, sex, and some functional gastrointestinal disorders.
