Filter by:This study will be the first to assess the use of an electronic health records patient portal for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), have reduced quality of life, high rates of depression and anxiety, do not receive routine preventative health maintenance (such as vaccines) at the same rate as the general public, and have low adherence to medications. The investigators are seeking to understand whether an electronic health record patient portal (EPIC's MyChart), can be utilized to improve quality of life in this patient population.
It has been recently reported that EATL type 1, but not refractory coeliac disease, strongly expressed CD30 and might benefit from brentuximab vedotin. Since the safety profile of the combination brentuximab vedotin and CHP is known and since the role of etoposide as part of induction regimen is not demonstrated, the investigator will assess the efficacy and toxicity of the combination brentuximab vedotin and CHP followed by HDT/ASCT, as frontline treatment of EATL.
The primary aim of the project is to investigate whether a behavioural training programme improves troublesome bowel symptoms, that people with inflammatory bowel disease continue to have, despite their disease being controlled by medication. The other aim is to determine if there are factors which influence how well the training programme works. People attending an Inflammatory Bowel Disease clinic in a tertiary hospital, with bothersome bowel symptoms despite disease control, will be asked to join the study. This involves 2 to 6 sessions with a pelvic floor trained physiotherapist over a period of 6 months with further follow up at 12 months..

The aim of the AMBER trial is to determine the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of abdominal massage as part of the adjunct to bowel care in people with Multiple Sclerosis who have problems with their bowel i.e. faecal incontinence and/or constipation.
The main objective is to assess the effect of an 8-week daily supplementation with IbSium® (probiotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856) on the improvement gastro-intestinal disorders associated to the type C IBS (constipation predominant).
The primary objective is to obtain stool samples from subjects diagnosed with , and displaying signs and/or symptoms of IBD and/or IBS will be evaluated in this study. Eligible subjects require a diagnostic colonoscopy with possible biopsy and clinical evaluation.
This study aims to assess the use of low dose CT reconstructed with MBIR for the assessment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease who need CT to assess for disease complications.
: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) need long term treatments which can conflict with a desire of pregnancy in women. Uncontrolled IBD increases the risk of poor pregnancy outcomes [1]. Antitumor Necrosis Factor α (antiTNFα) are commonly used, off-label, in pregnancy but with the risk of treatment-related complications. Existing recommendations on the use of antiTNFα during pregnancy are conflicting and only rely on expert opinions. This study was aimed to assess appropriateness and risk to benefit ratio of antiTNFα treatment during pregnancy in women with IBD, for both the mother and the baby until the end of the first year.
In this study the investigators will evaluate patients with IBD and and at least 2 confirmed c.difficile infections who will be undergoing FMT. The investigators will assess patients before FMT and then follow patients prospectively post FMT at week 1, 8 and 12 to assess for recurrence of c.difficile infection and IBD outcomes.
