První epidemiologickou studii nevyšetřené dyspepsie v České republice provedla naše skupina v roce 2001. V roce 2011 jsme provedli novou prospektivní multicentrickou studii stejnou metodikou. V 22 centrech bylo zařazeno 1 836 osob (ve věku 5–98 let). Celková prevalence dlouhodobou dyspepsie byla 12 %, a to 3,5 % u lidí ve věku 5–24 let, 18 % mezi 25–64letými a 15 % u lidí ≥ 65 let. Přestože v posledních 10 letech došlo k významnému poklesu prevalence infekce Helicobacter pylori, prevalence a sociodemografické determinanty dyspepsie se signifikantně nezměnily.

Epidemiology of uninvestigated dyspepsia was studied in the Czech Republic for the first time in 2001. The aim of our current multi-centre prospective study was to evaluate dyspepsia using the same methods in a representative sample of general unselected population from the same geographical areas 10 years later. A total of 22 centres entered the study. A total of 1,836 subjects (aged 5–98 years) were enrolled. The overall prevalence of dyspepsia was 12 %; namely 3.5 % in subjects aged 5–24 years, 18 % among 25–64-year-old persons and 15 % in subjects ≥ 65 years. Despite the substantial decrease of Helicobacter pylori infection in the Czech Republic over the past 10 years, the prevalence and basic socio-demographic determinants of uninvestigated dyspepsia did not change significantly.
