<p>Animal model of intestinal inflammation is of paramount significance that aids in discerning the pathologies underlying ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, the two clinical presentations of inflammatory bowel disease. The 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) colitis model represents one such intestinal inflammation-prototype that is generated in susceptible strains of mice through intra-rectal instillation of compound TNBS. In this paper, we demonstrate the experimental induction of TNBS-mediated colitis in a susceptible strain of ICR mice. This can be done by the following steps: a) acclimation, b) induction and c) observation. TNBS-mouse model provides the information in shortest possible time and simultaneously represents a cost effective and highly reproducible model method of studying the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.</p><p><strong>Video Clips</strong></p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/v/6MsuIGzH3uA">Acclimation and induction of TNBS</a>:          4.5 min</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/v/ya66SNwoVag">Observation and drug administration</a>:      1.5 min</p>

Annotation. At the turn of the 21st century, chronic inflammatory bowel disease (CIBD) has become a global disease with accelerating morbidity in industrialized countries with a prevalence exceeding 0.3%. These data underscore the need for research into the prevention of inflammatory bowel disease and innovations in health care systems to manage this complex and costly disease. The information from a personal anamnesis of 40 women patients with ulcerative colitis (clinical group (main). In the second group (control), 30 practically healthy pregnant women with a physiological course of gestation were included, which did not have in their history of inflammatory intestinal diseases. Statistical processing of research results was performed using the software package Statistica 6.0. The arithmetic mean (M) and the standard deviation error (± m) (p<0.05) were determined, as well as the odds ratio (OR), confidence interval (CI) at p=95%. It was found that for women with ulcerative colitis is characterized by the presence of a history of obstetric pathology, such as: spontaneous miscarriage of OR 3.33, 95% CI [1.06-10.53], p=0.04 and blood secretions of OR 3.0, 95% CI [1.00-8.98], p=0.0496; among extragenital pathology in the anamnesis: children's infectious diseases of OR 4.85, 95% CI [1.25-18.85], p=0.02, chronic bronchitis of OR 7.54, 95% CI [1,56-36, 41], p=0.01, varicose veins OR 4.33, 95% CI [1.11-16.95], p=0.035, chronic gastritis OR 6.0, 95% CI [1,23-29, 31], p=0.03, anemia of OR 15.0, 95% CI [4.53-49.68], p<0.0001, allergy history of OR 6.65, 95% CI [1.73-25.60], p=0.006; among gynecological complications – premenstrual syndrome OR 6.0, 95% CI [1.55-23.15], p=0.009, algomenorrhea OR 8.14, 95% CI [2.12-31.24], p=0.002 , salpingo-oophoritis, OR 7.54, 95% CI [1.56-36.41], p=0.01. Because CIBD during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of adverse effects on the mother and fetus, information on socio-anamnestic and clinical analysis of pregnant women with ulcerative colitis will be useful to health care providers in making decisions about CIBD during pregnancy.

BackgroundHaving a relative with inflammatory bowel disease increases the risk for Crohn’s disease but may also increase its severity in affected patients.AimsTo evaluate the influence of a family history on Crohn’s disease course and severity.Methods1316 patients followed in the same unit were studied retrospectively. Age at onset, duration of illness, site, and extent of disease were determined in patients with and without a family history. Additionally, disease severity was estimated by the need for medical therapy (steroid and immunosuppressive requirement) and the frequency and extent of excisional surgery.Results152 (12%) patients had a family history of inflammatory bowel disease. Duration of follow up was longer in patients with a family history and there were more operations for perforating complications in familial cases. However, the importance of medical therapy, and the incidence and extent of excisional surgery were similar in familial and and sporadic cases. Kaplan-Meier estimated time to prescription of immunosuppressive drugs and first intestinal resection were similar in familial and sporadic cases. When the 152 patients with familial Crohn’s disease were paired for sex, location of disease at onset, date of birth, and date of diagnosis with 152 patients with sporadic Crohn’s disease, the disease severity remained similar in the two groups of paired patients.ConclusionPatients with Crohn’s disease and a family history of inflammatory bowel disease do not have a more severe course.

A 12-year-old male with a family history of inflammatory bowel disease presented with sleep-disordered breathing and was found to have chronic, granulomatous swelling of the supraglottic larynx. His airway was managed with tracheostomy, regular interval laryngeal steroid injections, supraglottoplasty, and “pepper pot” CO2 laser resurfacing leading to eventual decannulation. Due to the non-necrotic nature of the granulomatous inflammation, as well as the patient’s family history of inflammatory bowel disease, the leading diagnosis was Crohn disease, but isolated laryngeal sarcoidosis could not be ruled out. There are only 13 reported cases of laryngeal manifestations of Crohn disease in the literature, with only 2 cases occurring in pediatric patients. This case report adds to this body of literature and discusses strategies for managing granulomatous supraglottic edema when definitive diagnosis is not fully clear.

Abstract Objective Vedolizumab (VDZ) has been incriminated in the occurrence of articular manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). The aim of this study was to describe musculoskeletal manifestations occurring in IBD patients treated by VDZ and to identify risk factors. Methods In this retrospective monocentric study, we included all consecutive patients treated by VDZ for IBD in our hospital. Incident musculoskeletal manifestations occurring during VDZ treatment were analysed and characteristics of patients with and without articular inflammatory manifestations were compared. Results Between 2013 and 2017, 112 patients were treated with VDZ for IBD: ulcerative colitis (n = 59), Crohn’s disease (n = 49) and undetermined colitis (n = 4). Four patients (3.6%) had a history of SpA, whereas 13 (11.6%) had a history of peripheral arthralgia. Some 102 (91.1%) patients had previously received anti-TNF. After a mean (S.d.) follow-up of 11.4 (8.6) months, 32 (28.6%) patients presented 35 musculoskeletal manifestations, of which 18 were mechanical and 17 inflammatory. Among the latter, 11 had axial or peripheral SpA, 5 had early reversible arthralgia and 1 had chondrocalcinosis (n = 1). Among the 11 SpA patients, only 3 (2.6%) had inactive IBD and may be considered as paradoxical SpA. The only factor associated with occurrence of inflammatory manifestations was history of inflammatory articular manifestation [7/16 (43.8%) vs 10/80 (12.5%), P = 0.007]. Conclusion Musculoskeletal manifestations occurred in almost 30% of IBD patients treated with VDZ, but only half of them were inflammatory. Since most of the patients previously received anti-TNF, occurrence of inflammatory articular manifestations might rather be linked to anti-TNF discontinuation than to VDZ itself.
