Brief Summary:
Constipation is one of the most common causes of patient visits to pediatric clinics Prevalence of constipation is estimated between 19-272 in the USA Rasquin et al 2006
In children aged 18 years its prevalence was about 07-296 Untreated constipation may cause fecal impaction and fecal soiling5 which are seen in about 1-3 of children Bulloch and Tenenbein 2002
Constipation may cause gastrointestinal problems such as abdominal pain anal pruritus rectal bleeding and anorexia or non-gastrointestinal complications such as urinary problems Dehghani et al 2015
Functional constipation is defined as constipation without an organic etiology and is diagnosed according to the Rome criteria1-3 The symptom- based Rome criteria were first developed for adults in 1989 during a consensus meeting of experts in the field of functional gastrointestinal disorders These criteria have been updated several times and are now internationally acknowledged and used for both research and clinical purposes The revised Rome IV criteria- for childhood and adult functional constipation were published in 2016 Benninga et al 2016 Hyams et al 2016 Lacy et al 2016
Functional constipation a common disorder in all age groups shows some similarities in children and adults but important differences exist regarding epidemiology symptomatology pathophysiology diagnostic workup and therapeutic management In this research we hypothesized that serum vitamin D deficiency could be associated with chronic functional constipation in children secondary to delayed transit intestinal time and consequently we will investigate this relationship and the related psychological aspects
