Clinical trial evaluating efficacy of bowel cleansing solutions in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
To find out what adaptations have been made by Inflammatory bowel disease physicians and patients in relation to therapies in flaring IBD patients during severe acute respiratory syndrome 2-COV and what the impact of these is on IBD patients with no symptomatic COVID-19 and in suspected/confirmed COVID-19. Also whether there any IBD related factors impacting the outcome of patients with COVID-19 symptoms or COVID-19 disease
RCT to evaluate possible pharmacokinetic differences between the two current regimes of intensified adalimumab administration.
The SBS NEEDS Study is a qualitative transversal study aiming to describe and understand the needs and knowledge of patients with Chronic Intestinal Failure as well as the representations of their practitioners Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) is the long-lasting reduction of gut function, below the minimum necessary for the absorption of macronutrients and/or water and electrolytes, such that intravenous supplementation is required to maintain health and/or growth. CIF is the rarest organ failure. Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is the primary treatment for CIF. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with patients in two nutrition unit and specialized in the small bowel diseases in two French region. 20 situations will be included. After analysing the data of the individual interviews, focus groups will be conducted with health professionals from an accredited home parenteral nutrition department.
This is a 2-arm randomized trial aimed at leveraging behavioral science principles to improve patient engagement between office visits among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Periodontal diseases are highly prevalent inflammatory diseases. It is now well known that they are correlated with numerous systemic diseases as : diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, metabolic syndrome or rheumatoid arthritis. Recently, periodontal diseases have been correlated with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). IBD include two types, Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis. It could be a significant risk factor for the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. These diseases present common features : a high prevalence worldwide, multifactorial pathogenies with common mechanisms. To date, no study has linked activity of IBD and periodontal diseases. The authors hypotheses that the prevalence of periodontal diseases could be increased in patient presenting an active IBD
Studies based on the relationship between Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) and the gastrointestinal system have been conducted in patients with constipation with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and in children with infantile cerebral palsy. For IBS patients, OMT can facilitate visceral vascularization and restore the physiological elasticity and motility of the viscera, and of the peritoneal structures around the viscera. The study also focused on the effects of OMT on women and constipated children, indicating an improvement in the stool consistency, reduction in the symptoms of constipation, the severity of the constipation, and in the use of laxative drugs. In patients with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), the secondary health disorders include the alteration of gastric acid secretion, abnormal colonic myenteric activity, and neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD). Patients with NBD present loss or absence of normal bowel function. About 80% of SCI is accompanied by NBD resulting in a lower quality of life caused by loss of independence, sense of embarrassment, mental disorder, social isolation. Conservative treatments for NBD after SCI include oral laxatives, enemas, retroanal trans-grade irrigation and digital anorectal stimulation. These treatments are mainly focused on promoting intestinal faecal evacuation and on strengthening the anal sphincter to improve bowel function. There are no studies that investigate the effects of OMT on patients with SCI, however, several studies have already showed the effects of OMT on the nervous system, on the hemodynamic system, and on visceral motility. Therefore, the starting hypothesis of this study is to use OMT in order to improve the symptoms of NBD in subjects with SCI, through a global OMT
To construct a standardized stepped nutritional treatment process for inpatients with inflammatory bowel disease, including nutritional risk screening and assessment, standardized nutritional treatment implementation, therapeutic effect follow-up and monitoring, family nutritional treatment follow-up, etc.
This study evaluates the effect of squatting on the toilet on gastric transit time and complete examination rate of capsule endoscopy.In the observation group, the patients could go to squatting on the toilet at any time as they want to after taking the capsule.
