Abstract

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional disorder that causes chronic abdominal pain without a known cause. It is a common, chronic gastrointestinal (GI) motility disorder with bothersome symptoms that often lower quality of life and activity. In addition, Patients and healthcare facilities also face significant financial costs. COVID-19 directly damages the digestive system and alters the complex interaction of physical, mental, and social factors that cause digestive problems. SARS-CoV-2 survivors in personal isolation will be examined for IBS prevalence. The dates of this descriptive cross-sectional study are January through April 2023. Rome IV criteria and an online questionnaire were used to confirm the diagnosis of IBS. The principal location where polls have been sent is East Java, Indonesia. The 96 COVID-19 survivors aged 18–60 of both genders was included during self-quarantine. There were 59 females (61.46%) and 37 males (38.54%). The prevalence of IBS was discovered to be 19 (19.79%) among a total of 96 patients. This could be because self-quarantined people have more stable living conditions than hospitalized people. Based on these findings, it is suggested that future research consider gender as the primary proxy for identifying irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Abstract

Background: Cancer is a chronic disease that can cause various complications, decrease the immune system, reduce quality of life, and even lead to death. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic in various countries has had a significant adverse impact on patients. This study analyzed the impact of various antitumor treatments on cancer patients with COVID-19. Methods: This meta-analysis was conducted according to the PRISMA – P pathway. Source searches were conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Research Gate, and Science Direct in cancer patients with COVID-19 receiving various types of antitumor treatment. Analysis was performed using RevMan V.5.3 software with the outcome of mortality rate and severe COVID-19. Results: Twenty-five observational studies met the inclusion criteria with a total of 21,940 patients. There was no significant difference in mortality rate (OR 1.08, 95% CI 0.99 – 1.18, p = 0.09), but there was a significant difference in severe COVID-19 (OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.02 – 1.39, p = 0.02). Immunotherapy provided the most significant worsening of both mortality rate (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.17 – 1.64, p = 0.0001) and severe COVID-19 (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.23 – 2.71, p = 0.003). There were no significant differences in other antitumor treatments. Conclusions: Antitumor treatment does not have a significant impact on mortality rate, but has a significant impact on worsening the degree of COVID-19. Among all the antitumor therapies that provide the highest potential for worsening is immunotherapy.
