Inflammatory Bowel

Since 1920, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been linked to increased incidence and mortality from colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC). Several studies have found that screening colonoscopy reduced CRC mortality and improved survival in IBD patients. However, there are little or no data about the prevalence of CRC/Dysplasia in Qatar detected by screening colonoscopy and weather the Qatar gastroenterologists adhere to the international guidelines. Thus, the focus of the present study was to examine the rate of CRC and dysplasia in IBD patients who underwent a screening colonoscopy. The sample consisted of 153 patients who were diagnosed and treated for IBD. The results of the study showed high incidence rate of CRC/Dysplasia among IBD patients and it was also found that the gastroenterologists in Qatar did not strictly adhere to the international guidelines in relation to the time of first screening colonoscopy of IBD patients.

The Relationship

Aim. To review available literature data on the relationship between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).Key findings. Current publications on IBD and IBS present different viewpoints on their relationship. Thus, researchers have noted a high incidence of IBD against the background of IBS, frequent persistence of IBS-like symptoms after achieving IBD remission, as well as the possibility of overlapping the diseases. According to literature data, IBD and IBS should be treated as different forms of the same disease. An opinion is expressed that IBS-like complaints in patients with IBD remission should be considered as a separate disease referred to as “irritated inflammatory intestinal syndrome”. Treatment of IBS-like symptoms in patients with IBD remission has thus far not been developed.Conclusion. The problem of the relationship between IBD and IBS is currently controversial, thus requiring further clarification.

Associative Link

There is mounting evidence of an associative link between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and clinical depression. In the first major treatise on the eponymous disease, Burrill Crohn himself noted that: “The number of cases of ileitis that have been rescued from institutions for the treatment of mental diseases emphasises not the personality but the end results of the drain of the disease upon the psychic constitution of the sufferer.” In the 70 years since that prescient statement, a high incidence of neuropsychiatric symptoms (depression, anxiety, cognitive fatigue, and sleep disorders) in patients with IBD has been frequently observed. Since patients with depression have significantly increased rates of relapse, surgery, hospitalisation, and suicide, recognising and treating depression is of paramount importance. In this narrative review, the authors will trace some of the biochemical connections between intestinal inflammation and neuropsychiatric symptoms and focus on strategies to manage both. Additionally, the authors offer a cautionary reflection on the extant need for widespread screening for depression among patients with IBD.

Bowel Ultrasound

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapsing disease that requires evaluation using multiple objective tools. In Europe, bowel ultrasound (US) is a widely accepted modality used for the management of patients with IBD; however, its use in North America has only recently emerged as a potential technique. Objectives: Our goal was to identify current practice patterns of pediatric gastroenterologists and radiologists using bowel US in patients with IBD and highlight perceived limitations to the widespread adoption of this modality in North America. Methods: A 14-question survey was e-mailed to the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition internet bulletin board composed of 3,058 subscribers from 51 countries; the Society of Pediatric Radiology listserv composed of 1,917 subscribers worldwide; and the Society of Chairs of Radiology at Children’s Hospitals listserv. Descriptive summary statistics was used. Results: In North America, about one-quarter of gastroenterology and radiology participants reported using bowel US for IBD; over 3-fourths expressed an interest in using US more often. Bowel US was performed more frequently for Crohn’s disease. Both groups agreed the main limitation to using bowel US was concern for inter-observer variability and operator-dependent factors; radiologists reported that other modalities are more effective to assess IBD, whereas gastroenterologists reported unfamiliarity with bowel US indications and techniques. Conclusions: Our data show there is significant interest among both radiologists and gastroenterologists in using bowel US. However, lack of education, insufficient training, and perceived high inter-observer variability among US technologists are limitations preventing the widespread adoption of US for IBD in North America.
