Results

Among 10 000 survey responses received, functional constipation (Rome IV diagnostic criteria) was reported by 439 participants; chronic constipation (Japanese guidelines) by 3804 participants; and subjective constipation symptoms by 2563 participants. Participants with constipation/GERD overlap had poorer quality of life (P < 0.001) and worse GERD symptom scores (P < 0.001). The frequency of abnormal stools was highest (P < 0.001) in the constipation/GERD overlap group.

Baseline Characteristics

The inclusion criteria required participants to be males or females aged 20 to 69 years (inclusive), who provided informed consent for survey participation.
Exclusion criteria were previous open surgery of the abdomen (excluding appendicitis); intestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease; cancer of the GI tract; pregnancy; and inability to follow the study instructions.

Participant flow

Participants were recruited from panels of the general public held by a survey company (Rakuten Insight Co, Ltd, Osaka, Japan). Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, and 10000 individuals meeting the eligibility criteria were enrolled after adjustments to reflect the general Japanese population's prefectural and age composition.

Adverse events

None.

Outcome measures

The primary study endpoint was the frequency of overlap of constipation and GERD. The secondary endpoints for the study were the investigation of background factors affecting constipation and GERD overlap, the examination of the association between constipation and GERD overlap via each disease measure (SF-8, GSRS, CSS, and FSSG), and investigation of the association between background factors and items, including SF-8 score, GSRS score, FSSG score, Bristol stool form scale (BSFS) score, CSS score, satisfaction with bowel movement, treatment with gastric or constipation medication, and type of gastric or constipation medication.
