Abstract

Background and Study Aims: In various gastrointestinal system diseases, emotional dysregulation has been shown to reduce pain tolerance and increase the severity of the disease. Increased emotional dysregulation during the adolescence period causes gastrointestinal symptoms to be more frequent and severe. In this study, Child Depression Inventory (CDI) scores were investigated in patients admitted to our clinic with functional gastrointestinal disorders.
