Scale scores of GSRS in IBS-D patients with low (LS) and high scores (HS) of somatization (Subscale of SCL-90-R)

	LS (n = 19)	HS (n = 28)	P
Clusters
Abdominal pain syndrome	5.00 [3.00–8.00]	7.00 [4.00–9.27]	0.003
Dyspepsia syndrome	6.00 [3.00–9.95]	6.00 [3.40–9.60]	0.85
Indigestion syndrome	10.00 [4.00–12.00]	10.25 [8.00–14.55]	0.04
Diarrhoea syndrome	6.00 [4.00–9.00]	7.00 [5.00–9.50]	0.38
Total score	33.00 [18.00–38.00]	36.50 [27.90–44.55]	0.01

Data are expressed as Medians and Range. P-Value was determined by Mann–Whitney test rank-sum test; differences were considered significant at P < 0.05. LS, Low somatization level; cut-off score < 63. HS, High somatization level; cut-off score ≥ 63
