The purpose of this study is to prove the superiority of a 48-weeks treatment with 3.2 g/day delayed-release phosphatidylcholine (LT-02) versus placebo for the maintenance of remission in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC)
The purpose of this study is to gain insights in the pharmacokinetics of golimumab in moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis after subcutaneous administration, during induction and maintenance treatment the investigators will collect blood and stool samples at different time points.
Background: Curcumin in an active phytochemical substance, used as part of the human diet, that has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties which were demonstrated in multiple experimental models of colitis including a positive effect on maintenance of remission in adult ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Objectives: To examine the effect of curcumin as complementary medication in induction and maintenance therapy in pediatric patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. Design: A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Setting: Pediatric gastroenterology centers. Participants: Children 6 year to 18 years who are diagnosed with mild to moderate UC and are planned to receive either 5-ASA or corticosteroids induction treatment. Main outcome measures: Disease activity defined by the Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI) at 2 weeks and 6 months. Secondary outcome measures: Effect of curcumin treatment on serum inflammatory markers, calprotectin and fecal microbiota. Data analysis: Data will be collected and analyzed using SPSS (version 21.0, SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Fisher's exact test will be used to explore univariate associations between primary outcomes and categorical variables. Associations of continues variables with primary outcome measures will be examined using ANOVA with repeated measures. P-values <0.05 will be considered significant.
This case-control study will screen for dysmenorrhea and assess severity of menstrual symptoms in menstruating women with CD and UC compared with healthy age-matched controls. IBD activity will be characterized using previously validated clinical disease activity indices. General and health-related quality of life will be assessed using validated measures.
This research study is about adding Black Raspberry powder to the treatment regimen of patients with ulcerative colitis who are currently in remission and doing well.
Clinical experience show limited effect of the drug Loperamide used to decrease output in stoma patients. Therefore the investigators see the need for a randomized blinded clinical trial to determine the effect of Loperamide opposite Placebo. Loperamide will be evaluated in relation to the following parameters - Change in ileostomy output in g/day in relation to oral intake - Quantification of the change in intestinal transit time using a radiopaque marker - The patient´s own assessment on which period they received Loperamide or Placebo
The presented study aims to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety in adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease and increased symptoms of anxiety and depression by using the disease specific CBT program (PASCET-PI)in order to improve quality of life and to improve the clinical course of disease.

For both induction of remission and in maintenance of remission, different doses and treatment durations are used in practice. The aim of this study is to assess how mesalazine is used in clinical practice, at which doses and for how long and how these differences impact the patient disease state and work productivity.
