Filter by:Performance of diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopic procedures in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients can be challenging during a viral pandemic; the main concerns being the safety and protection of patients and health care providers (HCP). The aim of this study is to identify endoscopic practice patterns and outcomes of IBD and coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) with a worldwide survey of HCP.
A single center randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of a post-discharge mobile health application on 30-day re-admission and patient reported outcomes following elective colorectal surgery
The aim of the current study was to evaluate the knowledge of Chinese gastroenterologists on vaccinating patients with IBD under the assistance of Chinese Crohn's & Colitis Foundation. The Chinese Crohn's & Colitis Foundation (CCCF) is the first nonprofit,volunteer-driven foundation specifically for patients with IBD in China.It has been joined by IBD specialists at various hospitals in China.
Inflammatory bowel disease IBD, including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestinal tract with unknown etiology. The mechanism includes environment, genetics, intestinal microecology and immunity. In recent years, the incidence of IBD in Asian countries has continued to rise, and the incidence of CD and UC in Guangzhou has reached 1.09/10 million and 2.05/10 million respectively. The patient suffers from the disease for a long time, which greatly affects the mentality and the quality of life. However, the mentality and quality of life of IBD patients have not received the attention they deserve, and research in this area is relatively lacking. The study by Lewis et al. found that among IBD patients, up to 1/3 of depression patients and 2/3 of anxiety patients were not diagnosed in time. This study conducted an Internet questionnaire survey on IBD patients diagnosed in the Department of Gastroenterology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, to learn about the patients 'mental and psychological state, to screen the risk factors of patients'mental and psychological diseases, and to understand the impact of mental and psychological factors on the quality of life and quality of IBD patients. The impact of the disease provides a scientific basis for the optimal treatment of IBD.
People with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) can be at higher risk of developing abnormal areas in their bowel. These abnormal areas can be due to active inflammation, healed inflammation, polyps or pre-cancerous changes ("dysplasia"). It is for this reason that people with IBD are offered periodic surveillance colonoscopy procedures to identify, characterize and where necessary remove abnormal areas or lesions from the bowel. These can be difficult to characterize correctly, which is important to make the correct endoscopic diagnosis and management plan. Technical advancements in endoscopy mean that more tools are available to identify and characterize these lesions in real time during colonoscopy. Specialists regularly performing gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy ("endoscopists") will often receive special training, both during their initial postgraduate training and through continuous professional development programs. This study aims to evaluate whether an online training platform can improve the ability of endoscopists to characterize dysplasia in IBD. The goal is to support improved decision-making during IBD surveillance, reporting of dysplastic lesions, and ultimately the care and outcomes of people with IBD.
Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce symptoms of IBD and the associated inflammation in the digestive system for participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. In this study, participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease will be treated with vedolizumab according to their clinic's standard practice. Participants will receive vedolizumab as either an infusion or an injection just under the skin (subcutaneous). The main aim of the study is to observe real-world treatment patterns in participants treated with vedolizumab. The study sponsor will not be involved in how participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study.
Inflammatory bowel disease consists of either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). The main aim of this study is to describe real-world treatment patterns in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease when treated with vedolizumab. This will include the administration choices which can either be an infusion through a vein (intravenous or IV), or an injection just under the skin (subcutaneous injection, or SC). Treatment will be determined by the study doctor according to routine clinical practice.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by severe inflammation of the small bowel and/or the colon leading to recurrent diarrhea and abdominal pain. Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) is characterized by abdominal pain or discomfort, gas, loose and frequent stools. Butyrate has shown anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, providing symptomatic relief when orally supplemented in patients suffering from various colonic diseases. The investigator proposes to investigate the effect of a microencapsulated form of sodium butyrate on the fecal microbiota of patients with IBD and IBS-D.
The trial will test the hypothesis that edible structures within plant cells (ginger) will have clinically important anti-inflammatory effects on the gut lining of patients with inflammable bowel disease. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of exosomes with and without curcumin in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD); To estimate the effect of ginger exosomes or curcumin alone or combined with curcumin on the symptoms and disease score in patients with refractory IBD describe toxicities associated with ginger exosomes; to evaluate the effect of ginger exosomes on biomarkers of inflammation.
The main aim of this study is to check the disease activity in people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Participants will complete questionnaires about their disease and quality of life on Day 1 clinic visit. They will do this during a standard scheduled appointment with their doctor. Some of this study will also involve collecting information about participants from their medical records.
