Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This systematic review and Bayesian meta-analysis compares the efficacy of face-to-face cognitive behavioral therapy against digital, telephone-delivered, and self-help modalities for treating irritable bowel syndrome in adults. The study analyzes data from 22 randomized controlled trials involving 3161 participants to assess improvements in symptom severity, quality of life, and abdominal pain intensity. It concludes that while face-to-face CBT shows similar effects to other delivery methods, the evidence certainty is moderate to low due to insufficient sample sizes and high heterogeneity.
