Background/Aims
Data on the natural course of Chinese patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) was lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the natural history and prognosis of patients with UC in the past 15 years in China.
Methods
This cohort study included patients with UC in a tertiary hospital in southern China from 2007 to 2021 (cohort I: 2007–2011, cohort II: 2012–2016, cohort III: 2017–2021). Patients’ clinical characteristics and natural history were analyzed retrospectively.
Results
Of 1,139 included patients, 683 patients presented with proctitis or left-sided colitis at diagnosis and 38.5% of them (263/683) developed proximal disease extension. Fifty-eight percent of patients experienced relapse, chronic continuous and intermittent active course. Five patients (0.4%) developed colorectal tumors/dysplasia. The overall surgery rate was 8.6%, and the rates were 14.2%, 7.8%, and 8.0% in the 3 cohorts, respectively (P= 0.059). Average time from diagnosis to surgery decreased from cohorts I to III (144 months vs. 36 months, P< 0.001), so did the use of glucocorticoids (58.2% vs. 43.5%, P< 0.001) and immunosuppressants (14.1% vs. 13.4%, P= 0.016), and days of hospitalization (13 days vs. 9 days, P< 0.001). Biologics were used more frequently during the first year (0.8%, 2.1%, and 13.7% for cohorts I to III, respectively; P< 0.001). The rate of mucosal healing increased over time.
Conclusions
In Chinese UC patients, one-third of patients experienced proximal disease extension. The rates of malignancy and mortality were low. More biologics were used, while use of immunosuppressants and glucocorticoids were reduced over time. Early biologics use seemed to promote mucosal healing, but the rate of colectomy has not dramatically decreased.

Gut microbiome on immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy and consequent immune-related colitis: a review
Sung Wook Hwang, Min Kyu Kim, Mi-Na Kweon
Intest Res 2023;21(4):433-442.   Published online August 29, 2023

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have dramatically revolutionized the therapeutic landscape for patients with advanced malignancies. Recently, convincing evidence has shown meaningful influence of gut microbiome on human immune system. With the complex link between gut microbiome, host immunity and cancer, the variations in the gut microbiota may influence the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Indeed, some bacterial species have been reported to be predictive for cancer outcome in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors are currently proven to be an effective anti-tumor treatment, they can induce a distinct form of toxicity, termed immune-related adverse events. Immune-related colitis is one of the common toxicities from immune checkpoint inhibitors, and it might preclude the cancer therapy in severe or refractory cases. The manipulation of gut microbiome by fecal microbiota transplantation or probiotics administration has been suggested as one of the methods to enhance anti-tumor effects and decrease the risk of immune-related colitis. Here we review the role of gut microbiome on immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy and consequent immune-related colitis to provide a new insight for better anti-cancer therapy.

IBD
Performing colonoscopy before steroid induction is associated with shorter steroid use in patients with ulcerative colitis
Taku Kobayashi, Eri Udagawa, Lisa Hirose, Toshifumi Hibi
Intest Res 2023;21(2):205-215.   Published online December 15, 2022
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2021.00164
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Risks of long-term steroid use in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) outweigh the benefits, thus dosing should be tapered once a response is achieved. Colonoscopy is a key technique for assessing disease severity and optimizing treatment involving steroids. This retrospective longitudinal cohort study of patients with UC explored factors associated with the duration of systemic steroid use.
Methods
The Japan Medical Data Center database, an employer-based insurance claims database, was used to select individuals initiating prednisolone, with a prescription issued between January 1, 2010, and January 31, 2018. The study included adults with a confirmed diagnosis of UC, who had received ≥1 year of continuous treatment with 5-aminosalicylic acid, biologics, or thiopurine. Factors associated with prednisolone duration were assessed using a multivariate regression model.
Results
Median duration of prednisolone treatment was 98 days, and colonoscopy was performed ≤1 month before or at the first prescription of prednisolone (index date) in 32.8% of patients (607/1,853). Shorter durations of prednisolone treatment were associated with colonoscopy ≤1 month before or at the index date and higher prednisolone dose at index date, with incidence rate ratios (IRRs) of 0.776 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.682–0.884; P<0.001) and 0.998 (95% CI, 0.996–1.000; P=0.018), respectively. Charlson Comorbidity Index scores of 1 and ≥2 predicted longer prednisolone treatment (IRR, 1.332; 95% CI, 1.174–1.511; P<0.001 and IRR, 1.599; 95% CI, 1.357–1.885; P<0.001, respectively).
Conclusions
Performing colonoscopy before or at the time of initiating steroid was associated with a shorter duration of steroid use in patients with UC.

Chenwen Cai, Juntao Lu, Lijie Lai, Dongjuan Song, Jun Shen, Jinlu Tong, Qing Zheng, Kaichun Wu, Jiaming Qian, Zhihua Ran
Intest Res 2022;20(2):213-223.   Published online April 29, 2022
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2021.00031
AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rising in Asia recently. The study aimed to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the current status of drug therapy and monitoring for IBD in Asia.
Methods
A questionnaire investigation on drug therapy and monitoring for IBD was conducted right before the 6th Annual Meeting of Asian Organization for Crohn’s & Colitis. Questionnaires were provided to Asian physicians to fill out via emails between March and May 2018.
Results
In total, responses of 166 physicians from 129 medical centers were included for analysis. Among the surveyed regions, the most average number of IBD specialist gastroenterologists and nurses was 4.8 per center in Taiwan and 2.5 per center in Mainland China, respectively. 5-Aminosalicylic acid/sulfasalazine (99.4%) was the most preferred first-line choice for mild-moderate ulcerative colitis (UC), meanwhile corticosteroid (83.7%) was widely applied for severe UC. The first-line medication for Crohn’s disease (CD) markedly varied as corticosteroid (68.1%) was the most favored in Mainland China, Japan, and South Korea, followed by infliximab (52.4%) and azathioprine (47.0%). Step-up strategy was preferred in mild-moderate UC (96.4%), while 51.8% of the physicians selected top-down treatment for CD. Only 25.9% and 17.5% of the physicians could test blood concentration of infliximab and antibody to infliximab in their hospitals, respectively.
Conclusions
The current status of drug therapy and monitoring for IBD in Asia possesses commonalities as well as differences. Asian recommendations, IBD specialist teams and practice of therapeutic drug monitoring are required to improve IBD management in Asia.

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Is there a correlation between infliximab trough levels and the development of adverse events in patients with inflammatory bowel disease?
Eirini Theodoraki, Eleni Orfanoudaki, Kalliopi Foteinogiannopoulou, Evangelia Legaki, Maria Gazouli, Ioannis E. Koutroubakis
Intest Res 2021;19(4):461-467.   Published online August 18, 2020
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2020.00042
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
The measurement of infliximab trough levels (IFX-TLs) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is performed to optimize treatment. However, the association between the development of adverse events (AEs) and IFX-TLs has not been sufficiently studied thus far. To investigate the possible association of IFX-TLs with AEs in Greek patients with IBD receiving maintenance treatment with IFX.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of the registry data of the Gastroenterology Department of the University Hospital of Heraklion, from IBD patients with at least one available IFX-TL measurement during the years 2016 to 2017 was conducted. AEs reported 4 months before and 4 months after the measured IFX-TLs were recorded. The IFX-TLs of patients with or without AEs were compared.
Results
Of a total of 83 IBD patients (61 Crohn’s disease [73%]; 52 men [63%]; mean age ± standard deviation, 43.3 ± 16.0 years), 147 measurements of IFX-TLs were available (median 4.69 μg/ mL [1.32–9.16]), and 99 AEs (67.3%, 14 severe) were registered. The median IFX-TL of patients with AEs was 5.79 μg/mL (1.36– 10.25), higher than the median IFX-TL of patients without AEs (3.40 μg/mL [1.30–5.92]), but the difference was not significant (P= 0.97). The presence of infections or dermatologic reactions was not correlated with IFX-TLs. There was no difference in the prevalence of the total AEs (66.7% vs. 73.3%, P= 0.77) or in the analysis of AEs by group between patients with IFX-TLs ≥ 15 μg/ mL and patients with IFX-TLs < 15 μg/mL.
Conclusions
IFX-TLs are not significantly associated with the development of AEs in IBD patients receiving maintenance treatment with IFX.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Oral mesalazine is an important treatment for ulcerative colitis (UC), and non-adherence to mesalazine increases the risk of relapse. Controlled-release (CR) mesalazine has 2 formulations: tablets and granules. The relative acceptabilities of these formulations may influence patient adherence; however, they have not been compared to date. This study aimed to evaluate the acceptabilities of the 2 formulations of CR mesalazine in relation to patient adherence using a crossover questionnaire survey.
Methods
UC patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups in a 1:1 ratio. Patients in each group took either 4 g of CR mesalazine tablets or granules for 6 to 9 weeks, and then switched to 4 g of the other formulation for a further 6 to 9 weeks. The acceptability and efficacy were evaluated by questionnaires, and adherence was assessed using a visual analog scale. The difference in acceptabilities between the 2 formulations and its impact on adherence were assessed.
Results
A total of 49 patients were prospectively enrolled and 33 patients were included in the analysis. Significantly more patients found the tablets to be less acceptable than the granules (76% vs. 33%, P=0.0005). The granules were preferable to the tablets when the 2 formulations were compared directly (73% vs. 21%, P=0.004), for their portability, size, and numbers of pills. The adherence rate was slightly better among patients taking the granules (94% vs. 91%) during the observation period, but the difference was not significant (P=0.139).
Conclusions
CR mesalazine granules are more acceptable than tablets, and may therefore be a better option for long-term medication.

IBD
Medication non-adherence in inflammatory bowel diseases is associated with disability
Jonathan Perry, Andy Chen, Viraj Kariyawasam, Glen Collins, Chee Choong, Wei Ling Teh, Nikola Mitrev, Friedbert Kohler, Rupert Wing Loong Leong
Intest Res 2018;16(4):571-578.   Published online October 10, 2018
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2018.00033
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Medication non-adherence is common in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The short-term consequences of non-adherence include increased disease relapse but the long-term impact upon patients in terms of daily functional impairment are less well characterized. Identifying negative outcomes, such as disability, may encourage adherence.
Methods
Consecutive ambulatory IBD subjects completed the Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS; non-adherence defined as ≤16), Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Disability Index (IBD-DI; disability: <3.5) and Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (high necessity/concerns: ≥16). The primary outcome was the association between medication non-adherence and disability. Secondary outcomes were the predictors of these outcomes.
Results
A total of 173 subjects on IBD maintenance medications were recruited (98 Crohn’s disease, 75 ulcerative colitis: median IBD-DI, –5.0; interquartile range [IQR], –14.0 to 4.0 and median MARS, 19.0; IQR, 18 to 20) of whom 24% were non-adherent. Disability correlated significantly with medication non-adherence (r=0.38, P<0.0001). Median IBD-DI for non-adherers was significantly lower than adherers (–16.0 vs. –2.0, P<0.0001). Predictors of disability included female sex (P=0.002), previous hospitalization (P=0.023), management in a referral hospital clinic (P=0.008) and medication concerns (P<0.0001). Non-adherence was independently associated with difficulty managing bowel movements (odds ratio [OR], 3.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.50–9.16, P=0.005), rectal bleeding (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.14–6.36; P=0.024) and arthralgia/arthritis (OR, 2.56; 95% CI, 1.11–5.92; P=0.028).
Conclusions
Medication non-adherence was associated with significantly increased disability in IBD. Female gender, higher disease severity and medication concerns were additional predictors of disability.

<b>Background/Aims</b><br/>

Mesalazine is an effective drug for treating ulcerative colitis (UC), but causes allergic symptoms in a few cases. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of the drug-induced lymphocyte stimulation test (DLST) for the diagnosis of mesalazine allergy.

Methods

Patients with UC treated with mesalazine with or without a history of associated adverse events (AEs) were enrolled at Kyorin University Hospital from July 2016 to April 2017.

Results

The DLST was performed in 104 patients with UC, of which 24 had a history of AEs due to mesalazine treatment. The control value of DLST was 337.4±296.3 counts per minute (cpm) in the AE+ group and 408.0±371.9 cpm in the AE group. The measured value of DLST was 578.8±424.7 cpm in the AE+ group and 476.5±471.8 cpm in the AE group. The stimulation index (SI) was 243.9%±291.1% in the AE+ group and 119.8%±53.0% in the AE group. The SI value and DLST positivity were significantly higher in the AE+ group than in the AE group (P=0.030 and P=0.029, respectively). The test sensitivity and specificity were 0.240 and 0.805, respectively, and the false-positive and false-negative rate was 0.195 and 0.760, respectively.

Conclusions

The DLST for mesalazine showed low sensitivity and high specificity, suggesting that it may be useful for the definitive diagnosis of allergy to mesalazine.

<b>Background/Aims</b><br/>

The use of genetic probes for the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) has been well described. However, the role of these assays in the diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis is unclear. We therefore assessed the diagnostic utility of the Xpert Mycobacterium tuberculosis/rifampicin (MTB/RIF) assay, and estimated the prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB in the Indian population.

Methods

Of 99 patients recruited, 37 had intestinal TB; two control groups comprised 43 with Crohn's disease (CD) and 19 with irritable bowel syndrome. Colonoscopy was performed before starting any therapy; mucosal biopsies were subjected to histopathology, acid-fast bacilli staining, Lowenstein-Jensen culture, and nucleic acid amplification testing using the Xpert MTB/RIF assay. Patients were followed up for 6 months to confirm the diagnosis and response to therapy. A composite reference standard was used for diagnosis of TB and assessment of the diagnostic utility of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay.

Results

Of 37 intestinal TB patients, the Xpert MTB/RIF assay was positive in three of 37 (8.1%), but none had MDR-TB. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay was 8.1%, 100%, 100%, and, 64.2%, respectively.

Conclusions

The Xpert MTB/RIF assay has low sensitivity but high specificity for intestinal TB, and may be helpful in endemic tuberculosis areas, when clinicians are faced with difficulty differentiating TB and CD. Based on the Xpert MTB/RIF assay, the prevalence of intestinal MDR-TB is low in the Indian population.

Metronidazole-induced encephalopathy in a patient with Crohn's disease
Jihye Kim, Jaeyoung Chun, Jae Yong Park, Seung Wook Hong, Joo Young Lee, Jin Woo Kang, Seongjun Hwang, Sang-Bae Ko, Jong Pil Im, Joo Sung Kim
Intest Res 2017;15(1):124-129.   Published online January 31, 2017

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub

Metronidazole is a widely used antibiotic for the treatment of anaerobic bacterial infections. Metronidazole-induced encephalopathy (MIEP) is a rare but potentially reversible disease. The mechanism of MIEP remains unclear, and differences in the neurotoxic effects of oral versus intravenous (IV) metronidazole administration have not yet been determined. We report the case of a Crohn's disease (CD) patient who experienced encephalopathy immediately after a single IV dose of metronidazole following long-term exposure to the oral form of the drug. The 64-year-old man with intractable CD experienced a sudden change in mental status, aphasia, and muscle weakness after IV administration of metronidazole. He had previously taken metronidazole orally for 13 years and received intermittent IV metronidazole treatments for CD exacerbation. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed high-intensity signals in the bilateral medial thalamus and the midbrain and pontine tegmentum on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. After discontinuation of metronidazole, the high-intensity brain MRI signals resolved and the patient's mental status dramatically improved; however, the patient exhibited mild cognitive dysfunction 2 months after the onset of encephalopathy.

Natural Product-Derived Drugs for the Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Young-Eun Joo
Intest Res 2014;12(2):103-109.   Published online April 29, 2014
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2014.12.2.103
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReader

Natural products have been used as drugs for millennia, and the therapeutic potential of natural products has been studied for more than a century. Since the mid-1880s, approximately 60% of drugs have originated from natural products. Recently, the importance of using natural products has increased, as has interest in discovering efficient new drugs. Natural drugs are desirable for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. This review discusses the discovery and development of drugs derived from natural products for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases.
