Post-infection irritable bowel syndrome following Coronavirus disease-19: A systematic review and meta-analysis

ConclusionsPatients with COVID-19 are more likely to develop post-COVID-19  IBS than healthy controls. The heterogeneity of studies, different criteria used by various studies to diagnose post-COVID-19 IBS and some studies not meeting the six-month follow-up duration of the Rome criteria for diagnosing IBS are limitations of this systematic review.Graphical abstract
