Tuberculosis risk in patients with Crohn’s disease on biologics: a retrospective analysis of the Japanese Medical Claims Database: Koji Fujimoto, Shuhei Hosomi, Yumie Kobayashi, Rieko Nakata, Yu Nishida, Masaki Ominami, Yuji Nadatani, Shusei Fukunaga, Koji Otani, Fumio Tanaka, Satoko Ohfuji, Yasuhiro Fujiwara; Received May 27, 2024 Accepted July 17, 2024 Published online August 19, 2024; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2024.00076 [Epub ahead of print]

Abstract PDF Supplementary Material PubReader ePub: Background/Aims
Treatment using tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitors is one of the risk factors for active tuberculosis (TB) in patients with Crohn’s disease (CD). Biologics, such as ustekinumab (UST) and vedolizumab (VDZ), are less likely to cause opportunistic infections. However, large-scale studies for active TB and biologics other than TNF-α inhibitors are limited. We aimed to investigate the association between biologics and active TB utilizing a Japanese medical claims database.
Methods
We analyzed retrospectively the association of the risk of active TB development with treatment using TNF-α inhibitors and other biologics (UST and VDZ) in patients with CD using the Japanese Medical Data Vision (MDV) database between April 2008 and June 2022. The durations of each biologic and biologic-free treatment were calculated for each patient. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazards model, with the utilization of biologics considered as time-dependent covariates.
Results
We included 28,811 patients with CD in MDV database. Finally, 17,169 patients were analyzed. In total, 7,064 patients were categorized as biologic-naïve, while 10,105 were classified as biologic-experienced. Seventeen patients developed active TB, including 7 on infliximab, 5 on adalimumab, and 5 on no biologics. None of the patients treated with UST and VDZ developed active TB. Multivariate analysis suggested that TNF-α inhibitors were the risk factors for active TB (hazard ratio, 3.66; P= 0.020).
Conclusions
TNF-α inhibitors, but not UST or VDZ, are risk factors for active TB in Japanese patients with CD.

Endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early colorectal cancer: Seung Wook Hong, Jeong-Sik Byeon; Intest Res 2022;20(3):281-290. Published online July 26, 2022; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2021.00169

Abstract PDF PubReader ePub

Early colorectal cancer refers to cancer in the colorectum that is confined to the mucosa or submucosa and does not invade the muscularis propria, irrespective of lymph node or distant metastasis. As the number of persons undergoing screening colonoscopy increases, the proportion of patients diagnosed with precancerous colorectal lesions and early colorectal cancer also increases. In the last decade, innovative optical technologies for endoscopic diagnosis have been introduced and endoscopic treatment techniques such as endoscopic submucosal dissection have provided major breakthroughs in the management of early colorectal cancer. With these remarkable developments, endoscopic treatment has established itself as an alternative to surgical resection in the treatment of early colorectal cancer. This review will discuss the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early colorectal cancer. Furthermore, the unmet needs in this field and the latest research addressing those issues will be summarized.

IBD

An integrative review of physical activity in adults with inflammatory bowel disease: Suja P Davis, Patricia B. Crane, Linda P. Bolin, Lee Ann Johnson; Intest Res 2022;20(1):43-52. Published online January 22, 2021; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2020.00049

Abstract PDF Supplementary Material PubReader ePub

Adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) search for self-management strategies to manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life (QOL). Physical activity (PA) is one of the self-management strategies widely adopted by adults with IBD. This integrative review aimed to synthesize the evidence on health outcomes of PA in adults with IBD as well as to identify the barriers to engaging in PA. Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), published literature was searched to identify the articles that addressed PA in adults with IBD. Twenty-eight articles met the inclusion criteria. Many of the reviewed studies used the terms of PA and exercise interchangeably. Walking was the most common PA reported in the studies. The findings from the majority of the reviewed studies supported the benefits of moderate-intensity exercise/PA among adults with IBD. The reviewed studies noted the following positive health outcomes of PA: improvement in QOL, mental health, sleep quality, gastrointestinal symptoms, fatigue and cardiorespiratory fitness. More importantly, participation in PA reduced the risk for development of IBD and the risk for future active disease. The findings from the reviewed studies highlighted the following barriers to engage in PA: fatigue, joint pain, abdominal pain, bowel urgency, active disease and depression.

Inflammatory bowel diseases

Presentation and outcomes among inflammatory bowel disease patients with concurrent pneumatosis intestinalis: a case series and systematic review: Youran Gao, Meka Uffenheimer, Michael Ashamallah, Gregory Grimaldi, Arun Swaminath, Keith Sultan; Intest Res 2020;18(3):289-296. Published online November 4, 2019; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2019.00073

Abstract PDF PubReader ePub

Background/Aims
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involves chronic inflammation of the colon with ulcerative colitis (UC), and the colon and/or small intestine with Crohn’s disease (CD). Pneumatosis intestinalis (PI), characterized by compromise of the intestinal wall with gas-filled cysts, has rarely been reported with IBD. The presentation, best management and outcomes of PI with IBD are poorly defined.
Methods
We conducted a search for PI in all abdominal computed tomography (CT) reports at 2 large tertiary care hospitals from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2017, cross referenced to ICD codes for IBD. CT and chart review was performed to confirm PI and IBD respectively. A systematic review excluding case reports was performed for PI with IBD for comparison.
Results
Of 5,990 patients with a CT abdomen report mentioning PI, we identified 11 cases of PI with IBD, 4 UC, 6 CD, and 1 indeterminate colitis. PI was limited to the small bowel in 5 patients, the right colon in 5, and small bowel and colonic in 1. All 3 mortalities had CD, small intestinal PI and portal/mesenteric venous gas. The systematic literature search identified 9 articles describing 58 patients with IBD and PI. These cases were mostly included in larger cohorts of PI patients without extractable data on presentation or outcomes in the IBD subpopulation.
Conclusions
Ours appears to be the first reporting of presentations and outcomes, outside of case reports, for those with PI and IBD. The high mortality for those with CD and PI of the small bowel appears to define a group requiring more than supportive medical care.

Background/Aims

The past decades have seen increasing incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in China. This article aimed to summarize the current status and characteristics of surgical management for IBD in China.

Methods

We searched PubMed, Embase, and Chinese databases from January 1, 1990 to July 1, 2014 for all relevant studies on the surgical treatment IBD in China. Eligible studies with sufficient defined variables were further reviewed for primary and secondary outcome measures.

Results

A total of 74 studies comprising 2,007 subjects with Crohn's disease (CD) and 1,085 subjects with ulcerative colitis (UC) were included. The percentage of CD patients misdiagnosed before surgery, including misdiagnosis as appendicitis or UC, was 50.8%±30.9% (578/1,268). The overall postoperative complication rate was 22.3%±13.0% (267/1,501). For studies of UC, the overall postoperative complication rate was 22.2%±27.9% (176/725). In large research centers (n>50 surgical cases), the rates of emergency operations for CD (P=0.032) and in-hospital mortalities resulting from both CD and UC were much lower than those in smaller research centers (n≤50 surgical cases) (P=0.026 and P <0.001, respectively). Regarding the changes in CD and UC surgery over time, postoperative complications (P=0.045 for CD; P=0.020 for UC) and postoperative in-hospital mortality (P=0.0002 for CD; P=0.0160 for UC) both significantly improved after the year 2010.

Conclusions

The surgical management of IBD in China has improved over time. However, the rates of misdiagnosis and postoperative complications over the past two decades have remained high. Large research centers were found to have relatively better capacity for surgical management than the smaller ones. Higher quality prospective studies are needed in China.

Background/Aims

The growing volume and the diversity of clinical research has led to related laws and regulations as well as the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval process becoming more stringent. To conduct clinical research efficiently and while following regulations, information about the IRB approval process and feedback is important for investigators. This has yet to be studied.

We included 381 gastrointestinal disease research proposals (79 with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], and 302 with non-IBD) reviewed by the IRB of Severance Hospital between January 2009 and December 2013. We retrospectively analyzed research characteristics including research risk levels, results of initial reviews, frequencies of continuing review, numbers of IRB comments, frequencies of IRB comments, and durations from submission to approval.

Results

Investigators' decisions on risk level were higher in the IBD group than in the non-IBD group (P<0.05). Results of initial reviews, frequencies of continuing reviews, the numbers of IRB review comments, and durations from submission to approval were not different between the two groups, but IRB decisions on risk level were higher in the IBD group (P<0.05). In subgroup analysis, the number of IRB comments from initial review on informed consent forms and procedures as well were quest of more information were significantly higher in the IBD group than in the non-IBD group (P<0.001 and 0.01, respectively).

Conclusions

In Korea, rare diseases such as IBD require more information for the IRB process due to their distinct characteristics. IBD researchers should develop research protocols more carefully and make their research as subject-friendly as possible.
