“…The multivariate analysis identified emotional exhaustion as a significant predictor of bloating and urgent need to have a bowel movement. This finding echoed that of a prior study of Cholongitas and Pipili which reported a relation between the burnout syndrome and lower GI symptoms (17) . The study also revealed that emotional exhaustion is significantly related to passing hard stool and increased bowel gas.…”

“…It showed that 70.1% of participants had burnout. Among those participants, 42% informed at least 1 monthly episode of GERD, 30% had ulcerlike pain, 28% had dyspepsia and 55% had symptoms from the lower gastrointestinal system (17) . Although there are various studies conducted to investigate burnout among physicians immediately after the COIVD-19 pandemic, few studies examined the prevalence of BOS after sufficient duration after the occurrence of this pandemic.…”

Background: Physicians appear to be particularly vulnerable to burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic. This may have significant adverse consequences for workers' well-being and health. The relationship between burnout and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms is not fully understood. Aim: We aimed to determine the prevalence rate of burnout among physicians and investigate its impact on gastrointestinal symptoms. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among physicians (n=167) in teaching hospitals in Ismailia city, Egypt. An interview questionnaire was used to collect data. The questionnaire assessed burnout syndrome using Maslach Burnout Inventory and assessed the GI symptoms through Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale. Results: More than half of studied physicians (56.3%) exhibited burnout criteria, with a prevalence rate of 74.9%, 53.9%, 5and 2.1% for emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced professional accomplishment, respectively. Emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were identified as predictors of pain or discomfort in the upper abdomen, and nausea. Only emotional exhaustion was found to be a significant predictor of heartburn, bloating, and urgent need to have a bowel movement. While burnout had a significant association with the majority of upper and lower GI symptoms. Conclusion: Burnout is highly prevalent among physicians. Burnout dimensions have significant associations with GIT symptoms. Upper GI symptoms are influenced by burnout dimensions more than lower ones. These findings highlight the importance of implementing urgent interventions that minimize both burnout among physicians and the resulting physical consequences.

“…Moreover, there has been a substantial focus on burnout and its effects on physical health conditions in recent years. Burnout has been found to be positively associated with, inter alia, the following conditions: cardiovascular condition (Melamed, Shirom, Toker, & Shapira, ), elevated cholesterol levels (Shirom, Westman, Shamai, & Carel, ), coronary heart disease (Toker, Melamed, Berliner, Zeltser, & Shapira, ), diabetes (Melamed et al, ), gastrointestinal problems (Shirom, Melamed, Toker, Berliner, & Shapira, ), hypertension (Cholongitas & Pipili, ) and atherosclerosis (Kitaoka‐Higashiguchi et al, ).…”

The purpose of the study being reported here was to investigate the relationship of job burnout and work engagement with self-reported received treatment for health conditions (cardiovascular condition, high cholesterol, depression, diabetes, hypertension and irritable bowel syndrome), while controlling for age, gender, smoking and alcohol use. The sample comprised 7895 employees from a broad range of economic sectors in the South African working population. A cross-sectional survey design was used for the study. Structural equation modelling methods were implemented with a weighted least squares approach. The results showed that job burnout had a positive relationship with self-reported received treatment for depression, diabetes, hypertension and irritable bowel syndrome. Work engagement did not have any significant negative or positive relationships with the treatment for these health conditions. The results of this study make stakeholders aware of the relationship between job burnout, work engagement and self-reported treatment for health conditions. Evidence for increased reporting of treatment for ill-health conditions due to burnout was found. Therefore, attempts should be made to manage job burnout to prevent ill-health outcomes.
