- Background/Aims
Transabdominal ultrasonography (US) helps evaluate Crohn’s disease (CD) activity. We investigated whether the US could predict subsequent adverse outcomes for patients with CD in clinical remission.
Methods This single-center retrospective study included patients with CD in clinical remission who underwent US between April 2011 and April 2021, focusing on the predictability of subsequent adverse outcomes within 5 years. We used the US-CD, which was calculated using multiple US findings. Predictive variables were assessed using Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, and the predictive value was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves.
Results Seventy-three patients were included. During a median follow-up of 1,441 days (range, 41–1,825 days), 16.4% (12/73) experienced clinical relapse, 9.6% (7/73) required endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD), 58.9% (43/73) required enhanced treatment, and 20.5% (15/73) underwent surgery. In the multivariate analysis, US-CD was significantly associated with clinical relapse (P= 0.038) and the need for enhanced treatment (P= 0.005). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting clinical relapse and the need for EBD was 0.77 and 0.81, respectively, with US-CD (cutoff value = 11), and that for requiring enhanced treatment was 0.74 with US-CD (cutoff value = 6). Patients with US-CD ≥ 11 demonstrated a significantly higher occurrence of clinical relapse (P= 0.001) and EBD (P= 0.002) within 5 years. Patients with US-CD ≥ 6 experienced a significantly higher likelihood of requiring enhanced treatment (P< 0.001) within 5 years.
Conclusions High US-CD is associated with subsequent adverse outcomes in patients with CD.

- Background/Aims
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients frequently have zinc deficiency. IBD patients with zinc deficiency have higher risks of IBD-related hospitalization, complications, and requiring surgery. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of zinc acetate hydrate (ZAH; Nobelzin) in IBD patients with zinc deficiency.
Methods IBD patients with zinc deficiency who received ZAH from March 2017 to April 2020 were registered in this 2-center, retrospective, observational study. Changes in serum zinc levels and disease activity (Crohn’s Disease Activity Index [CDAI]) before and after ZAH administration were analyzed.
Results Fifty-one patients with Crohn’s disease (CD, n = 40) or ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 11) were registered. Median serum zinc level and median CDAI scores significantly improved (55.5–91.0 μg/dL, P< 0.001; 171.5–129, P< 0.001, respectively) in CD patients 4 weeks after starting ZAH administration. Similarly, median serum zinc levels and CDAI scores significantly improved (57.0–81.0 μg/dL, P< 0.001; 177–148, P= 0.012, respectively) 20 weeks after starting ZAH administration. Similar investigations were conducted in groups where no treatment change, other than ZAH administration, was implemented; significant improvements were observed in both serum zinc level and CDAI scores. Median serum zinc levels in UC patients 4 weeks after starting ZAH administration significantly improved from 63.0 to 94.0 μg/dL (P= 0.002), but no significant changes in disease activity were observed. One patient experienced side effects of abdominal discomfort and nausea.
Conclusions ZAH administration is effective in improving zinc deficiency and may contribute to improving disease activity in IBD.
