Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease（IBD）is chronic relapsing and remitting disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Although the precise aetiology and pathogenesis of IBD remains elusive, epidemiological data conclusively point to be attributed to an aberrant immune response against environmental factors such as the gut microbiota in a genetically susceptible host. The bacterial microbiota plays a major role in human physiology and pathogenesis of IBD. The Fungi are often ignored in studies. Although the role of fungi has been suggested in pathogenesis of IBD, the available data are scarce. The aim of our study was to analyse and compare the faecal fungal microbiota in patients with IBD and healthy subjects (HS). Methods Our study evaluated fungal composition of the faecal microbiota of 66 patients with CD and 38 patients with UC diagnosed in West China Hospital and 39 HS by ITS2 sequencing. The Qiime pipeline was used to assess composition and diversity. Using LEfSe observed differential fungal composition between subjects. Results The faecal fungal microbiota was dominated by two phyla, basidiomycetes and ascomycetes in both IBD and HS. We observed that fungal microbiota was skewed in IBD, with an decreased basidiomycota/ascomycota ratio, a decreased proportion of Aspergillus and Saccharomyces and an increased proportion of Exophiala. Polythrincium, clonostachys, Candida compared with HS. Using LEfSe, we observed several differential fungal composition in different subject. Exophial a (p = 0.02), Agaricales (p = 0.02)species were overrepresented in UC, whereas Bulleribasidiaceae (p = 0.01), Ustilaginaceae (p = 0.007), Ustilaginales (p = 0. 007),Ustilaginomycetes (p = 0.007)species were overrepresented in HS. We then directly compared the fungal composition between subgroup of CD and UC, we observed Eurotiales（p = 0.007）, Aspergillus（p = 0.025), Thermoascus（p = 0.04）species were overrepresented in UC-remission. Ascomycota (p = 0.008) and Didymellaceae (p = 0.02)species were associated with CD-remission, whereas Saccharomyces (p = 0.03) and Xylariaceae (p = 0.006) species were associated with CD-flare. There was no significant difference in fungal Alpha diversity between IBD and HS. Beta diversity analysis showed that one subgroup of IBD samples segregated from HS whereas another subgroup overlapped with HS. Conclusion There was no significant change in fungal diversity in IBD. However, we observed fungal composition was skewed with decreased basidiomycota/ascomycota ratio on phyla level, particularly in IBD-flare group. The fungal composition was dominated by Aspergillus and Saccharomyces in HS, while the proportion of Exophiala, Polythrincium, Clonostachys, Candida was increased in IBD on genus level.

Inflammatory Bowel

A significant overlap exists between spondyloarthritis (SpA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly in the IL-23/IL-17 pathway. Shared immunologic mechanisms include aberrant innate immune responses, an excess of Th1/Th17-mediated immunity, and inadequate immune regulation. Many genetic factors associated with IBD are involved in host–pathogen interactions and intestinal barrier function, and the intestinal microbiota do appear to play an important role in disease development. Hence the current hypothesis for IBD pathogenesis is that it stems from a dysregulated immune response to intestinal microbiota in a genetically susceptible host. In SpA, evidence for a role of intestinal microbiota is less abundant, but given the overlap with IBD, it is plausible that gut microbiota are important players in SpA pathogenesis as well. However, there are significant genetic differences between these two conditions, as well as differing responses to biologic therapy.

Inflammatory Bowel

Aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is complex and probably multifactorial. Nutrition has been proposed to be an important aetiological factor for development of IBD. Several components of the diet (such as sugar, fat, fibre, fruit and vegetable, protein, fast food, preservatives etc.) were examined as possible causative agents for IBD. According to some researchers infant feeding (breast feeding) may also contribute to the development of IBD. Though the importance of environmental factors is evidenced by the increasing incidence in developed countries and in migrant population in recent decades, the aetiology of IBD remained unclear. There are many theories, but as yet no dietary approaches have been proved to reduce the risk of developing IBD. The role of nutrition in the management of IBD is better understood. The prevention and correction of malnutrition, the provision of macro- and micronutrients and vitamins and the promotion of optimal growth and development of children are key points of nutritional therapy. In active disease, the effective support of energy and nutrients is a very important part of the therapy. Natural and artificial nutrition or the combination of two can be choosen for supporting therapy of IBD. The author summarises the aetiological and therapeutic role of nutrition in IBD.

Background:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), is considered as a risk factor of low bone mineral density (BMD). In fact, the prevalence of osteoporosis ranges from 17% to 41% in IBD patients. The possible contributing factors may include malabsorption, glucocorticoid treatment and coexisting comorbiditiesObjectives:The purpose of our work was to determine the frequency and the determinants of osteoporosis in patients with IBD and to assess whether there is a difference in BMD status between UC and CD.Methods:This is a retrospective study, over a period of 5 years (from January 2014 to December 2018) and including patients followed for IBD who had a measurement of BMD by DEXA. Clinical, anthropometric and densitometric data (BMD at the femoral and vertebral site) were recorded. The WHO criteria for the definition of osteoporosis and osteopenia were applied.Results:One hundred and five patients were collected; among them 45 were men and 60 were women. The average age was 45.89 years old. The average body mass index (BMI) was 25.81 kg/m2 [16.44-44.15]. CD and UC were diagnosed in respectively 57.1% and 42.9%. A personal history of fragility fracture was noted in 4.8%. Hypothyroidism was associated in one case. Early menopause was recorded in 7.6%. 46.8% patients were treated with corticosteroids. The mean BMD at the vertebral site was 1.023 g/cm3 [0.569-1.489 g/cm3]. Mean BMD at the femoral site was 0.920g/cm3 [0.553-1.286g / cm3]. The mean T-score at the femoral site and the vertebral site were -1.04 SD and -1.27 SD, respectively. Osteoporosis was found in 25.7% and osteopenia in 37.1%. Osteoporosis among CD and UC patients was found in respectively 63% and 37%. The age of the osteoporotic patients was significantly higher compared to those who were not osteoporotic (52.23 vs 43.67 years, p = 0.01). We found a significantly higher percentage of osteoporosis among men compared to women (35.6% vs 18.3%, p=0.046). The BMI was significantly lower in the osteoporotic patients (23.87 vs 26.48 kg/m2, p=0.035) and we found a significant correlation between BMI and BMD at the femoral site (p=0.01). No increase in the frequency of osteoporosis was noted in patients treated with corticosteroids (27.9% vs 21.6%, p=0.479). Comparing the UC and CD patients, no difference was found in baseline characteristics, use of steroids or history of fracture. No statistically significant difference was found between UC and CD patients for osteoporosis(p=0.478), BMD at the femoral site (p=0.529) and at the vertebral site (p=0.568).Conclusion:Osteoporosis was found in 25.7% of IBD patients without any difference between CD and UC. This decline does not seem to be related to the treatment with corticosteroids but rather to the disease itself. Hence the interest of an early screening of this silent disease.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract Background and aims The association between smoking and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) relies on old meta-analyses including exclusively non-Jewish White populations. Uncertainty persists regarding the role of smoking in other ethnicities. Methods We systematically searched Medline/PubMed, Embase and Scopus for studies examining tobacco smoking and the risk of developing IBD, i.e., Crohn’s disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC). Two authors independently extracted study data and assessed each study’s risk-of-bias. We examined heterogeneity and small-study effect, and calculated summary estimates using random-effects models. Stratified analyses and meta-regression were employed to study the association between study-level characteristics and effect estimates. The strength of epidemiological evidence was assessed through prespecified criteria. Results We synthesized 57 studies examining the smoking-related risk of developing CD and UC. Non-Jewish White smokers were at increased risk of CD (29 studies; RR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.69‒2.24; moderate evidence). No association was observed in Asian, Jewish and Latin-American populations (11 studies; RR: 0.97; 95% CI: 0.83–1.13), with no evidence of heterogeneity across these ethnicities. Smokers were at reduced risk of UC (51 studies; RR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.48–0.64; weak evidence) irrespectively of ethnicity; however, cohort studies, large studies and those recently published showed attenuated associations. Conclusions This meta-analysis did not identify any increased risk of CD in smokers in ethnicities other than non-Jewish Whites, and confirmed the protective effect of smoking on UC occurrence. Future research should characterize the genetic background of CD patients across different ethnicities to improve our understanding on the role of smoking in CD pathogenesis.
