Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) and symptoms have been identified as possible health consequences of intimate partner violence (IPV). However, whether specific types of abuse (i.e., psychological, physical and sexual) are associated with FGIDs and the implications of FGIDs for women’s quality of life (QOL) in the context of IPV are not well understood. This systematic review examined the association between the different types of IPV and the risk of FGIDs and symptoms among adult women and assessed the impact of FGIDs and symptoms on women’s QOL. Seven electronic databases were searched using the following criteria: English language studies of adult women (15 years or older) who had experienced IPV and reported FGIDs and symptoms; both quantitative and qualitative studies were included, and no time frame for publication was specified. A total of 15 studies (14 quantitative, 1 qualitative) conducted in 9 countries satisfied our inclusion criteria. IPV was associated with increased odds (1.6 to 2.7) of reporting a FGID. Each type of IPV (physical, sexual, psychological) was associated with FGIDs, alone or in combination. FGIDs were associated with some aspects of women’s QOL in the context of IPV (specifically seeking health care). Attention to the association between IPV and FGIDs could help strengthen health care for women who have experienced IPV and are suffering from FGIDs and inform future research to understanding this association in more depth.

功能性胃肠道疾病（FGID）和症状已被确定为亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）可能对健康造成的后果。但是，对于特定类型的虐待（即心理，身体和性虐待）是否与FGID相关联，以及在IPV背景下FGID对妇女生活质量（QOL）的影响尚不清楚。这项系统的审查研究了成年女性中IPV的不同类型与FGID和症状风险之间的关联，并评估了FGID和症状对女性生活质量的影响。使用以下标准搜索了七个电子数据库：成年女性（15岁或15岁以上）经历过IPV并报告了FGID和症状的英语研究；定量和定性研究都包括在内，并且没有规定发表的时间范围。在9个国家/地区进行的总共15项研究（14项定量，1项定性）满足了我们的纳入标准。IPV与报告FGID的几率增加（1.6到2.7）相关。IPV的每种类型（身体的，性的，心理的）单独或组合与FGID相关联。在IPV（特别是寻求卫生保健）的背景下，FGID与妇女QOL的某些方面相关。
