Summary
The development of new knowledge in medicine is associated with periodical changes in frequency with which certain „interesting“ diseases are being diagnosed. Their frequency might be determined by accessibility of information as well as, to a certain extent, by “popularity” of these conditions within the society.
Key words:
fashionable disease – irritable bowel syndrome – neurocirculatory asthenia – colitis – psychological disorders – constipation – gastroesophageal reflux disease
