Filter by:The study objective is aimed to describe all country, site, investigator and patient variables that lead to treatment persistence for at least 12 months among patients with rheumatologic and intestinal chronic inflammatory diseases who were switched to FK adalimumab, in order to develop a model to predict persistence at 12 months.

The purpose of this study is to explore the microflora characteristics of different ecological loci and multiple metabolic pathways in Crohn's disease patients with different disease course states.
If subjects voluntarily consent to participation in the study, those who are finally determined to be eligible for the study after whether all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are met is checked will receive the study drug. Efficacy and safety will be evaluated at baseline, baseline, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 14 weeks, 22 weeks, 30 weeks, 38 weeks, 46 weeks, and 54 weeks.
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are increasingly becoming interested in nonpharmacologic approaches to their disease. One of the most frequently asked questions of IBD patients is what they should eat. The role of diet has become very important in the prevention and treatment of IBD. Although there is a general lack of rigorous scientific evidence that demonstrates which diet is best for certain patients, several diets have become popular. Aim of the Work To assess IBD patients' knowledge about the role of nutrition in the management of their Inflammatory Bowel Disease and the dietary beliefs, behaviors, and daily dietary practices in adult IBD patients that they make to avoid exacerbation of disease symptoms or to gain more control of bowel symptoms, keeping in mind our traditional and oriental food and food habits in Egypt. Also to evaluate the role of one of the most common dietary regimens; the Paleolithic diet in active mild or moderate inflammatory bowel disease.
Dietary therapy involving the Crohn's disease exclusion diet (CDED) is an evolving strategy to target the microbiome and innate immunity in order to reduce inflammation and promote healing. The goal of the current pilot study is to evaluate the added benefit of treatment with Ustekinumab combined with CDED in anti TNF exposed patients compared to treatment with Ustekinumab alone in term of achieving remission.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic recurrent intestinal inflammation involving the whole digestive tract, with high disability rate, high surgical rate and high recurrent rate postoperatively. Preventing postoperative recurrence in CD patients is an important clinical problem needed urgent intervention. Azathioprine (AZA) and infliximab (IFX) effectively prevent postoperative recurrence in CD patients, but the postoperative recurrence rate is still as high as 41%. Oral supplement of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) owns the advantages of high compliance and low economic cost. We aim to evaluate the effect of routine treatment (AZA/IFX) combined with long-term dietary n-3PUFA on the prevention and treatment of postoperative recurrence of CD, which help optimize the treatment strategy for the prevention of postoperative recurrence.
Crohn's disease is a chronic recurrent systemic inflammatory disease. Studies have shown that meat, dairy products, fiber and vitamin D may affect the risk of Crohn's disease. The relationship between other dietary components and disease activity or recurrence in Chron's disease has not been fully studied. Although the patient's diet will affect the degree of disease activity, there is still no recognized daily diet model for CD patients. At present, the change of intestinal microbiome is considered to be one of the causes of IBD, and this change provides a theoretical basis for diet to reduce the inflammatory response in CD patients through the regulation of microbiome. Food driven inflammation may affect the activity of the disease. Brain-gut axis interaction may play an important role in CD and may have an effect on the cerebrovascular system. The investigators aim to evaluate the effects of Empirical Dietary Inflammatory Pattern (EDIP) based dietary suggestions on disease activity and cerebrovascular function as well as changes of intestinal flora and its metabolites amongst Chron's disease participants of all ages.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U), are characterised by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Over the past 50 years, the incidence of IBD has increased globally, with the highest increase in industrialised countries. During the last 25 years, the incidence of IBD has increased dramatically among teenagers in northern France, with an increase of 126% and 156% for CD and UC, respectively. Physical fitness is a set of attributes related to a person's ability to perform physical activities that require aerobic capacity, endurance, strength or flexibility and is determined by a combination of regular physical activity and genetically inherited ability. Physical fitness, widely recognised as an important health determinant, plays an important role in growth and development. Due to the evidence-based importance of physical fitness for young people's health status, attention should be paid to the assessment of physical fitness at these ages and whatever the health status. At this time, there is no study on the assessment of physical fitness in IBD pediatric patient.
Intestinal stricture is a complication of Crohn's disease (CD), which is thought to be the result of chronic transmural inflammation combined with a dysregulated wound-healing process. While inflammatory strictures may respond to anti-inflammatory treatment, fibrotic strictures are usually anti-inflammation resistant, requiring further endoscopic balloon dilation or surgical intervention. Therefore, to determinate the inflammatory or fibrotic nature of intestinal stricture is a key step in the treatment of CD. 18F-FDG is a radiotracer reflecting the glucose metabolism of disease and is usually accumulated in inflammatory disease. 68Ga-FAPI is a novel radiotracer that specifically targets fibroblast activation protein (FAP). FAP is a membrane glycoprotein expressed on activated fibroblasts, which are key cells in the process of fibrotic intestinal stricture of CD. In this study, we hypothesis that the inflammatory or fibrotic nature of intestinal stricture can be non-invasively evaluated by 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT in patients with CD.
