Our objectives were to determine the current practices in diagnosis and management of these disorders in the Asia\u2010Pacific region.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Forty\u2010three physicians and researchers in FGID who attended the first Asian Pacific Topic Conference at Tokyo in November 2010 were invited to answer a questionnaire. Twenty\u2010three Japanese doctors and twenty doctors from other Asia\u2010Pacific Societies answered the questionnaire, which consisted of 60 multiple\u2010choice questions concerning physician's preferences in diagnosis and management of FGIDs.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Overall, there were similarities in diagnostic approach, such as differential diagnosis, exclusion of organic diseases, psychophysiological assessment, medical advice or medication with psychological drugs, not only among different Asia\u2010Pacific region but also between FD and IBS. Several notable differences were seen. For example, general practitioners did not commonly use the term FD or diagnose FD by themselves, while the term IBS was widely used and frequently diagnosed. Sub\u2010categorization was more common in IBS than FD. There was also a difference between Japan and other Asia\u2010Pacific region; upper GI endoscopy and blood examination were more common in Japan, while eradication of <jats:italic>Helicobacter pylori<\/jats:italic> was more frequently done in other countries. Anti\u2010secretory drugs for FD and mild laxatives or anti\u2010diarrheal drug for IBS were frequently used, and prokinetics were used for all patients with FD or IBS. Interestingly, drugs developed in Japan and Chinese herbal medicines were more frequently prescribed in Japan.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Information obtained in this survey is useful for understanding the most common clinical approaches for FGIDs in the Asia\u2010Pacific region.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2011.06635.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,28]],"date-time":"2011-03-28T20:49:07Z","timestamp":1301345347000},"page":"2-11","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Diagnosis and treatment of functional gastrointestinal disorders in the Asia\u2010Pacific region: A survey of current practices"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Soichiro","family":"Miura","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kentaro","family":"Sugano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshikazu","family":"Kinoshita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kwong Ming","family":"Fock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Khean Lee","family":"Goh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Gibson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Members of the first Asian\u2010Pacific Topic Conference organized by the Japanese Society of Gastroenterology and Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrgastro.2010.4"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2006.03.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2005.11.059"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2005.11.061"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.45.2008.ii37"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","first-page":"1741","article-title":"BMW (Bowel Motility Workshop) club symposium: Japanese guideline for the management of irritable bowel syndrome","volume":"21","author":"Sasaki D","year":"2000","journal-title":"Ther.
