Background The impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on constipation, as mediated through gastrointestinal absorption perturbations to the intestinal microecology, remains poorly understood. Objective This study seeks explain relationship between PFAS constipation.

Our aim was to assess DGBI obese subjects comparison normal or overweight subjects, as well exploring factors associated Europe. Methods We included who completed internet‐based survey Rome Foundation Global Epidemiology study 11 European countries. Obesity defined a BMI>30 kg/m 2 and participants were divided into three classes: 1: BMI 30 <35 , 2: 35 <40 3: 40 higher. symptoms compatible reported compared between (BMI 18.5 <30 ) participants.

Obesity, particularly visceral fat, is a well-established risk factor for various gastrointestinal disorders, including constipation, possibly due to its metabolic and hormonal effects on bowel motility, though the mechanisms remain unclear. The Body Roundness Index (BRI), novel reliable anthropometric measure, has been validated as precise indicator of fat. However, relationship with constipation remains uncertain. This population-based, cross-sectional study analyzed data from 6,898 participants in National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2005-2010) assess this association. Binary logistic regression analyses, adjusted multiple covariates, revealed that higher BRI levels were significantly associated lower likelihood constipation. Participants highest quartile had 32% odds than those lowest (adjusted OR: 0.68; 95% CI: 0.54-0.86; P: 0.0013). As was study, findings indicate an association between rather causality. These results suggest could be practical accessible marker identifying individuals different susceptibility potentially aiding clinical assessment guiding preventive strategies.

The relationship between body roundness index (BRI), a metric that distinguishes heterogeneity in fat distribution, and constipation is unclear. This study the first to investigate association BRI based on National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) United States, providing new perspective mechanisms of obesity-related gastrointestinal dysfunction. cross-sectional utilized data from NHANES conducted 2005 2010. Constipation was diagnosed Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS). Weighted logistic regression models were employed assess prevalence. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) piecewise linear applied evaluate non-linear relationships constipation. Propensity score matching (PSM) implemented match constipated non-constipated populations with similar baseline characteristics. Subsequent analyses correlation A total 12,732 eligible participants included. negative observed prevalence, an adjusted odds ratio (OR) 0.87 (95% CI: 0.80, 0.95) after controlling for all covariates. When categorized into quartiles (Q1-Q4), both Q3 Q4 groups exhibited significantly reduced risk compared Q1 (OR = 0.72, 95% 0.54-0.97; OR 0.63, 0.46-0.87). RCS model revealed inverse (nonlinearity test P 0.083). Subgroup identified significant interaction effects age, alcohol consumption status, hypertension (interaction < 0.05). Post PSM, patients demonstrated higher levels than non-constipation counterparts (P 0.013). An U.S. adults, suggesting lower may correlate raised incidence. underscores critical importance maintaining optimal prevention.

However, there paucity evidence exploring relationship between NHHR bowel health, particularly diarrhea constipation. This cross-sectional study utilized data from National Health Nutrition Survey (NHANES) 2005-2010. Sociodemographic, lifestyle, health status were collected alongside blood lipid levels. Weighted multivariate logistic regression models assessed association health. restricted cubic spline (RCS) method was used explore their dose-response relationship. Subgroup analyses sensitivity conducted further validate robustness our findings. In 11,268 participants, significant positive identified elevated levels constipation in women, with highest quartile showing an adjusted OR 1.57 (95% CI: 1.21-2.03) compared lowest quartile. notably stronger among female smokers. Sensitivity excluding individuals hypercholesterolemia or inflammatory disease confirmed correlation. No associations found men. findings provide novel United States design limits ability establish causality. Additionally, reliance on self-reported may introduce inaccuracies.
