Chapter 1: Burden of Digestive Disorders
Dyspepsia
Burden estimates for dyspepsia are not separately specified within the GBD 2019 database,
however previous systematic reviews on the subject have been published, including a recent
systematic review by Barberio et al.68 investigating the global prevalence of uninvestigated
dyspepsia among adults, according to the Rome criteria.
Table 5 shows the results of the population-based studies identified and extracted by
Barberio et al.,68 conducted in UEG member countries. Amongst these studies prevalence
estimates vary considerably, ranging from 13.9% in Sweden to 37.5% in Russia when Rome I
criteria were used, 2% in Spain to 35.8% in Sweden when Rome II criteria were used, 4% in
France to 40.4% in Portugal when Rome III criteria were used, and finally 1.1% in Turkey to
12.3% in Egypt when Rome IV criteria were used. The many methodological differences
between the studies (such as the method of data collection, the diagnostic criteria used and
how the diagnostic criteria are applied) likely contribute to variation in prevalence estimates,
however it has also been suggested that risk varies between populations, although further
research is needed to identify specific explanations for this.68 69 70 Nonetheless, the results of
these studies suggest dyspepsia is a common disorder.
