Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are two of the most significant chronic conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and affects over 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. Recently, there has been an increased understanding of the importance of sleep and sleep disruption in IBD as a potentially modifiable risk factor. We, therefore, hypothesize that intervening with morning bright light therapy (BLT) in IBD patients with CM will decrease intestinal permeability and pro-inflammatory cytokines, positively impact intestinal microbiota, and improve quality of life (QoL).
Paediatric and adolescent patients with chronic pain associated with their medical condition will be invited to participate in this study. Most patients for this study will be recruited from gastroenterology and hepatology clinics at KCH. Therefore the rationale for the study is primarily with consideration of each of these medical conditions all with the common symptom of chronic pain. Inflammatory bowel disease disorders(IBD), such as Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI) all experience chronic pain. however children with DGBI do not have an underlying specific lesion causing the pain. The chronic pain is the disease. In addition to this Chronic pancreatitis in children and adolescents can cause severe pain. All of these groups of patients suffer with chronic pain and this can result in failure to thrive and have a negative impact on quality of life. There is a need for further development of a non - pharmacological approach to support these patients with their symptoms of pain and in turn improve quality of life. This study is designed to evaluate the benefits of a complementary natural therapy for paediatric and adolescent patients registered at King's College Hospital, with a diagnosis of a disease or disorder with associated symptoms of chronic pain. The age group is 5-18 years old. The therapy to be evaluated is an energy therapy (Pranic Healing). This therapy is non -invasive, non- touch, non- pharmacological and natural. The study will assess the benefits these patients experience with their symptoms of pain after 8 weeks of weekly energy therapy sessions each session is 30 minutes and 3 visits each 4 weeks apart. Qualitative and Quantitative data will be collected and evaluated.
This is a Phase 1, single-center, randomized, double-blind, third-party open (ie, participant blind, investigator blind and sponsor open), placebo controlled study to investigate PK, safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and PD of PF 06480605 following a single subcutaneous dose of PF-06480605 450 mg and 150 mg (if needed) in Chinese healthy adult participants.
The pathogenesis of IBD is still unclear, and the disease characteristics of IBD patients are affected by genetic susceptibility genes. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relationship between genetic susceptibility genes of IBD and the pathogenesis of IBD in Chinese Han population, in order to clarify the pathogenesis of IBD and provide basis for individualized treatment of IBD.

Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (Nod2) signaling is critical for human health.To figure out the clinical relevance of NOD2 ligands, the investigators plan to evaluate the change of NOD2 ligands in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), CRC, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2 ).
This study learn how easily patients can use an educational tool that will be created for patients with melanoma and pre-existing autoimmune diseases who receive or will receive immune checkpoint inhibitor drugs. Patients will be asked their opinions about the design, accessibility, and content of the tool. Researchers will use the information collected to improve the educational materials that will help patients make future decisions about their treatment.
The investigators will be evaluating bone marrow composition via magnetic resonance imaging in newly diagnosed adolescents with Crohn disease (CD) compared to healthy, matched controls. The investigators will also be assessing their bone mineral density via other imaging modalities, including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography. This longitudinal project will focus on abnormalities in bone marrow composition, and specifically whether adolescents with newly diagnosed CD exhibit increased bone marrow fat, its association with bone mineral density (BMD) and the underlying pathophysiology, including bone turnover markers and immune cellular/molecular parameters.
68Ga-FAPI has been developed as a tumor-targeting agent as fibroblast activation protein is overexpressed in cancer-associated fibroblasts and some inflammation,such as inflammatory bowel disease. And it might be more sensitive than FDG in detecting a certain type of inflammations according to our preliminary research. Thus this prospective study is going to investigate whether 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT may be superior for diagnosis, therapy response assessment and follow-up of inflammatory bowel disease than 18F-FDG PET/CT.
