Inflammatory bowel disease roughly doubles the chances of pregnancy complications, reveals research published ahead of print in Gut. view more (2006-12-21)
C-diff infection 4 times more likely to kill patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Clostridium difficile infection is four times more likely to kill patients with inflammatory bowel disease, suggests research published ahead of print in the journal Gut. view more (2007-09-27)
Appendix removal delays onset of inflammatory bowel disease and lessens symptoms
Appendix removal delays the onset of inflammatory bowel disease and lessens the symptoms, especially if done before the age of 20, finds research in Gut. view more (2002-11-12)
Improved diagnostic technology for Crohn's disease
The diagnostic value of CT enteroclysis is superior to conventional enteroclysis, previously considered the gold standard, as an imaging method for the evaluation of the small bowel in patients with Crohn's disease, a new study shows. view more (2006-01-31)
Biochip for detection of inflammatory bowel disease
At the III International Symposium on Advanced Therapy for Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease, held in Madrid, the biotechnological company, Progenika, presented a DNA-chip the purpose of which is the optimisation of the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease and Ulcerous Colitis). view more (2005-01-26)
Inflammatory bowel disease is a risk factor for thrombosis
People with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are more than three times as likely to develop blood clots in their veins (venous thromboembolism), finds new research in Gut. Thromboembolism is a serious and potentially life threatening event. For many years, patients with IBD were thought to be at increased risk, but the evidence has been... view more... (2004-03-09)
Carbon monoxide soothes inflammatory bowel disease
Doctors have long known that smokers rarely suffer from a common form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) called ulcerative colitis, but they didn't know why. view more (2005-12-19)
High salicylic acid content in fruits and vegetables may explain protection from heart disease among vegetarians
The high salicylic acid content of fruits and vegetables may explain why vegetarians suffer less heart disease and bowel cancer than meat-eaters, suggests research in the Journal of Clinical Pathology. Salicylic acid is the main anti-inflammatory component of aspirin, which is widely prescribed to reduce the risk of heart attacks. Research also... view more... (2001-06-26)
Gaps in intestinal barrier could cause Crohn's disease
Scientists at the University of Liverpool believe gaps in the intestinal barrier could be a cause of inflammatory diseases of the gut such as Crohn's Disease. view more (2005-09-16)
No evidence that MMR vaccine is associated with autism or bowel disease
There is no evidence that MMR or single measles vaccines are associated with autism or inflammatory bowel disease, researchers announced today. Their conclusion follows the most in-depth analysis of the scientific literature to date, and provides clear reassurance for parents and health professionals regarding the safety of MMR vaccination. Their... view more... (2002-06-11)
Left handers at twice the risk of inflammatory bowel disease
Left handers seem to be at twice the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, suggests research in Gut. The research focused on two national groups of people born in 1958 and 1970 in Great Britain, who were monitored by questionnaire at the ages of 26 and 33. Handedness was determined from hand... view more... (2001-07-11)
Prevention is the best option: fighting autoimmune diseases
Centenary scientist Associate Professor Barbara Fazekas de St. Groth, a leader in inflammatory bowel disease research, has demonstrated for the first time the important role of T cells in the prevention of autoimmune diseases in humans. view more (2006-07-07)
Early onset gene for inflammatory bowel diseases identified
A study of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis in children has identified a gene that influences whether children get these diseases early in life, and points to a potential new target for treatment. view more (2008-09-03)
Discovery of genetic defect may lead to better treatments for common gut diseases
New findings related to an uncommon genetic disorder may impact the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the most common chronic gastrointestinal illness in children and teens. Two million Americans have IBD which involves inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. view more (2009-10-09)
A Jekyll and Hyde of cytokines: IL-25 both promotes and limits inflammatory diseases
The same signal responsible for promoting the type of immune responses that cause asthma and allergy can also limit the type of inflammation associated with debilitating diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis and multiple sclerosis. view more (2006-04-10)
A rare case of collagenous colitis presenting as protein-losing enteropathy
Since the first report in 1976, collagenous colitis has been associated with a variety of conditions, including use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and proton pump inhibitors. view more (2008-11-03)
Revolutionary approach for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease
Ghent scientists at VIB (the Flanders Interuniversity Institute for Biotechnology) are developing what could be a revolutionary new approach for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): dairy bacteria that produce a natural anti-inflammatory therapeutic substance in the intestine. The results of this research are being published this... view more... (2000-08-31)
Researchers identify molecular basis of inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, severely impair the lives of more than four million people worldwide. The development of effective therapies against these diseases requires an understanding of their underlying molecular mechanisms. Researchers from the Universities of Cologne and Mainz in Germany, the... view more... (2007-03-15)
Do patients with inflammatory bowel disease receive optimal care?
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic recurrent gastrointestinal disease. The disease has a relatively higher morbidity in young adults, in whom growth, education, employment and wellbeing all are adversely influenced. view more (2008-02-25)
Screening for bowel cancer must include general population, not just those at risk
If screening for bowel cancer is to get the go-ahead, it must include everyone, not just those with a family history, who are known to be at increased risk, reports research in the Journal of Medical Screening. The government is known to be considering setting up a nationwide screening programme for bowel cancer, and pilot studies are already... view more... (2001-06-29)
