Abstract Background Observational studies postulated an association between atopic dermatitis (AD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unclear whether this relationship is causal. Methods To determine whether AD is causally related to IBD and vice versa, a 2-sample Mendelian randomization study was conducted. Independent genetic instruments from the largest available genome-wide association study for AD (EAGLE eczema consortium without the 23andMe study including 10,788 cases and 30,047 controls) were used to investigate the association with IBD in the UK Biobank study (7045 cases, 456,327 controls) and a second European IBD sample (12,882 cases, 21,770 controls). Results Atopic dermatitis was strongly associated with higher risk of IBD as a whole (odds ratio [OR], 1.107; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.035; 1.183; P = .003) in the UK Biobank study. The positive association was not significant in the other IBD study (OR, 1.114; 95% CI, 0.956; 1.298), but in meta-analyses of results from the 2 studies, the strong association could be confirmed (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.04; 1.18). When evaluating the causal relationship in the other direction, IBD as a whole did not show an association with AD. Subtype analyses revealed that AD was suggestively associated with ulcerative colitis (UC; OR, 1.149; 95% CI, 1.018; 1.297) but not Crohn’s disease (CD). However, there was a suggestive association between CD and AD (OR, 1.034; 95% CI, 1.004; 1.064) but not UC and AD. Conclusions This study supports a causal effect between AD and IBD—but not between IBD and AD. There seems to be considerable differences between UC and CD regarding their specific associations with AD. These findings have implications for the management of IBD and AD in clinical practice.

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are at an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer. It is well accepted that this risk increases after 8–10 years of disease duration. Patients should be offered a surveillance colonoscopy after this time. Previously, white-light endoscopy with random biopsies every 10 cm was undertaken for surveillance, but recent evidence suggests that chromoendoscopy along with targeted biopsy is superior to this and the other available methods. This article reviews the available evidence for IBD surveillance, surveillance guidelines and the evidence for chromoendoscopy. Additionally, an overview of the assessment, reporting of any visible abnormal lesions and management of subsequently proven dysplastic lesions is given.

The octapeptide long acting somatostatin analogue, SMS 201-995 promotes intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption and inhibits anion secretion. It is more potent than native somatostatin and does not exhibit tachyphylaxsis. SMS 201-995 was used to treat two patients with severe diarrhea associated with Crohn’s disease after other treatments had failed. The volume and frequency of ileostomy output in one patient and stool output in the other did not respond to therapy with SMS 201-995. ln fact, diarrhea appeared to increase in both patients while on treatment.

Cardiac Manifestations

Extraintestinal manifestations are common complications of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) whereas the association of cardiac disease with IBD is rarely reported. Cardiac manifestations may be diagnosed before, concomitantly or after the diagnosis of the specific type of inflammatory bowel disease. Pericarditis and myocarditis are potentially serious complications. This extraintestinal manifestation developed in one patient concomitantly with onset of intestinal disease. One patient had ulcerative colitis (UC), while other had Crohn’s disease (CD). Indomethacin was effective in one and the other patient required prednisone in addition. Chest symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease should be evaluated to exclude myopericardial disease.

The prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease is ten times more common in patients with celiac disease; however, studies investigating the reverse relation have contradictory findings. Many gene polymorphisms are known to be present in both diseases; furthermore, similarities observed in their pathophysiological mechanism, their family concomitance, results of the serologic analysis and their macroscopic and microscopic symptoms in the gastro-intestinal system suggest a relevant association between the two diseases. The author presents the history of four patients, of whom two had both Crohn’s and coeliac diseases. In the two other patients with inflammatory bowel disease the possible diagnosis of coeliac disease was suspected, but after additional examinations coeliac disease was excluded in one patient and seemed to be unlikely in the other patient. The author concludes that the differential diagnosis of the two diseases is not easy and if one of them is diagnosed, the possible presence of the other one should be taken into consideration. Orv.

Inflammatory Bowel

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a serious health problem around the world. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is comprised of both Crohn's disease (CD) and UC. IBD is a clinical condition referred as inflammation in the colon. So far there is no proper medication available to treat IBD. On the other hand, untreated UC can be developed as colitis associated cancer. Natural agents are diverse molecules possess many beneficial effects. Many researchers have proven that natural agents can be better option to treat UC. Natural agents such as chrysin, chelidonic acid, euphol, fish oil, diallyl trisulfide, embelin, isatin, and rutin were already reported to have anti-colitic activity. In this chapter, the authors documented the natural agents that were used as treatment for UC.

Sage and Oregano, both are well-known culinary herbs with potential medicinal uses. Sage is mostly used to cease wounds bleeding, treating sores, swelling, cough and ulcers back in the first century and was called as the fertility drug since it reduces excessive bleeding during menstruation. On the other hand Oregano was found to be effective in treating stomach discomforts, bacterial/fungal infection, inflammatory bowel disease etc. Therefore due to their therapeutic and native applications, Sage and Oregano is of high economic worth.
