Key Points: Twenty percent of patients with systemic sclerosis met diagnostic criteria for irritable bowel syndrome or functional dyspepsia, the two most common disorders of gut–brain interaction. The presence of symptoms consistent with disorders of gut–brain interaction is associated with more severe systemic sclerosis gastrointestinal disease and poorer quality of life. Effective management strategies have been used to treat disorders of gut brain interaction that could be tested in those patients with systemic sclerosis and co-morbid disorders of gut brain interaction to reduce symptom burden and improve quality of life.
