Introduction: Functional gastrointestinal diseases remain one of the most
serious and incompletely resolved problems of modern medicine [10,9,1,7]. In terms
of
morbidity, they occupy a leading position in general therapeutic and
gastroenterological practice. According to the World Gastroenterology Organization,
gastrointestinal diseases occur in 30% of the adult European population, and
abdominal pain is its main cause. Approximately 20-50% of these cases are
associated with the manifestation of irritable bowel syndrome. The prevalence of
irritable bowel syndrome in the world is on average 10-20% of the general population
[10, 9].
