This study provides region-specific pediatric IBD data from the Philippines, highlighting prevalence of very-early-onset disease, perianal involvement in Crohn's, and factors (diagnostic delay, wasting, pancolitis)...
Patients with Crohn's reported more relapses and are more likely to see diet as a relapse trigger; nutritional therapy (including elemental diets) is used more often in Crohn's than UC in this Japanese sample. This...
The criteria were tested specifically in patients with psoriasis, uveitis, or IBD presenting with chronic back pain—groups at higher risk of axSpA—so results inform how well the new criteria perform in these real‑world...
SpA is a frequent but underrecognized extraintestinal manifestation in people with IBD; validated screening tools can help identify patients who need rheumatology evaluation. Earlier detection may address joint symptoms...
Severe ulcerative colitis can be linked to rare cardiac rhythm disturbances; recognizing bradycardia during flares may prompt appropriate evaluation and monitoring. The case signals clinicians to consider cardiac causes...
Bowel urgency directly limits daily activities and social participation for many people with IBD. Better defining and measuring urgency could improve symptom monitoring, treatment decisions, and trial endpoints that...
Long-term safety data on biologics and thiopurines are important for people with ulcerative colitis because they help patients and clinicians weigh risks (including malignancies and pregnancy-related outcomes) when...
Cure8 found this source from Gastroenterology, but the page could not be read reliably yet. It is tagged for Ulcerative colitis, Abdominal Pain, and Pain. Open the original article for the full details.
Disability related to IBD affects daily functioning and quality of life; identifying factors linked with higher or lower disability (vitamin D status, azathioprine use, smoking) can help patients and clinicians consider...
Fatigue is a common, impactful symptom in pediatric and young-adult IBD but is poorly defined and measured, limiting the ability to design age-appropriate supports. This review highlights gaps that affect patients' daily...
Fatigue is a frequent, impactful symptom in IBD. Identifying that reduced physical fitness (rather than just lower day-to-day activity) is linked to fatigue points toward targeted fitness training as a potential way to...
The study suggests a herbal formula (H7F) may protect intestinal barrier function, modulate the gut microbiome, and suppress IL-17/NF-κB inflammation in a mouse colitis model—mechanisms relevant to IBD pathophysiology.
Sleep disturbance is common in IBD and may relate to disease risk and flares. Understanding which sleep problems are linked to onset or activity could point to new ways to support people with IBD.
Steroid dependency affects many people with ulcerative colitis and can change long-term treatment plans. This study explores clinical factors and uses an AI clustering method to visualize different risk patterns, which...
Diagnostic delays can mean a child with Crohn's disease doesn't get timely treatment. This report shows weight loss in young patients—especially girls—can be mistakenly labeled an eating disorder, so awareness and...
Many people with IBD still experience active disease, poor quality of life, work impairment, and depression even while on advanced therapies — highlighting gaps in how we measure and manage treatment success. Who this...
The study suggests quality-of-life and patient-reported measures can reveal a subgroup of UC patients in clinical remission who nevertheless have higher relapse risk, which could help personalize monitoring and care.
Fecal incontinence is a distressing symptom that lowers quality of life and appears linked to active disease in UC. Knowing which patients are at higher risk can help clinicians focus assessment and symptom support.
An infectious cause (amebic colitis) can mimic IBD on colonoscopy and imaging, even without symptoms; misdiagnosis could delay correct treatment.
The study suggests a cellular redox pathway (selenium vs thiol axis) that is altered differently in Crohn's disease versus colorectal cancer, which could point to disease vulnerabilities and possible links to treatment...
If you have IBD and joint symptoms, this study suggests your joint complaints may reflect measurable immune changes that partly overlap with spondyloarthritis, not just non-specific pain. That could mean joint symptoms...
Fatigue is a common, disabling symptom in people with IBD with unclear causes. Finding reproducible immune or infectious signatures related to fatigue could point toward new research directions and, eventually, markers...
Parasitic infection can closely mimic Crohn’s disease with ileitis and partial small-bowel obstruction; recognizing exposure history and eosinophilia may prevent misdiagnosis and lead to curative treatment.
If fecal GP2 reliably reflects UC activity and microbial changes, it could become a noninvasive marker to track inflammation or to study disease mechanisms that differ between UC and CD.
Guidelines recommend treating objective inflammation even when symptoms are mild because untreated disease can cause complications; the article describes escalation to risankizumab due to endoscopic inflammation, high...
Fear of movement was more common and more severe in people with ulcerative colitis in this study. Addressing kinesiophobia could help increase physical activity and improve function and quality of life for people with...
A patient-centered journey map identifies changing symptom, psychological, and social needs at different stages of Crohn's disease. That can help clinicians and care teams target education, mental-health support, and...
