Background: Dyspepsia, characterized by symptoms in the gastroduodenal region, poses diagnostic challenges despite Rome IV criteria.
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of two underreported symptoms, Empty Stomach Sensation and Bothersome Hunger Sensation, in dyspeptic patients, and their association with the disorder of gut-brain interaction.
Methods: A cross-sectional study surveyed 1,211 individuals in northwest Mexico, assessing dyspeptic symptoms with pictograms and a 7-point Likert scale.

Background: Web-based cognitive behavioral therapy (wb-CBT) is a scalable way to reach distressed university students. Guided wb-CBT is typically superior to self-guided wb-CBT over short follow-up periods, but evidence is less clear over longer periods.
Objective: This study aimed to compare short-term (3 months) and longer-term (12 months) aggregate effects of guided and self-guided wb-CBT versus treatment as usual (TAU) in a randomized controlled trial of Colombian and Mexican university students and carry out an initially unplanned secondary analysis of the role of differential predicted compliance in explaining these differences.
