Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this observational case-control study investigators aimed to assess the serum levels of adipokines such as Apelin, Chemerin and adiponectin in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and compare it with healthy controls. Furthermore, investigators evaluated the possible correlation of these adipokines with IBS-QoL, IBSSS, GI symptoms and other clinical and psychological disorders.
