Several muscle cutoffs for sarcopenia were recognized, with those of RA and USMI being correlated with the highest positive (84.3%) and negative (99%) predictive values, respectively.

VH treatment is difficult because the mechanism of its complication is unknown. Serotonin is mainly produced in the gut and regulates several physiological processes, such as intestinal immunity and pain. Disturbances in serotonin levels are associated with CD severity and VH. Intriguingly, we have recently observed that serotonin can covalently bind to glutamine at position 5 on histone H3 tail, leading to histone serotonylation (H3Q5ser) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Another study has demonstrated that H3Q5ser can also occur in cultured neuronal cells.

Our aim was to determine the prevalence of migraine in a cohort of IBD patients.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 We performed a cross-sectional study in a cohort of IBD patients at our IBD Unit. After informed consent, consecutive IBD patients aged 18-64 years were interviewed. Those who admitted a history of headache in the last year were asked to answer the three questions of the id-Migraine validated questionnaire. Those who answered \"yes\" to the three of them were classified as \"definite\" migraine and those who answered \"yes\" to two were classified as \"probable\" migraine. For all patients we collected demographic data, IBD subtype, disease duration, hospitalizations or surgeries and medical treatments. Migraine prevalence data of IBD patients were compared with reported local migraine prevalence data at 18-65 years of age (Cephalalgia 2011; 31: 463-70). Statistical analysis was done with SPSS®.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 We interviewed 283 consecutive IBD patients aged 20-65 years. Main characteristics of this population are described in table 1.\u0000 Headache was present in 176 (62.2%) patients. Of those, 59 (20.8%; 95% CI 16.1-25.5%) met migraine criteria either definite (n= 33; 11.7%; 95% CI 8-15.4%) or probable (n=26; 9.2%; 95% CI 5.8-12.5). When divided by gender, 12 men (9.6%; 95% CI 4.4-14.) and 47 women (29.8%; 95% CI 22.7-36.9%) met migraine criteria.\u0000 The prevalence of migraine was significantly increased in IBD patients (20.8%) versus that reported for our general population (12.6%; p= 0.0001). By sex, these differences remained significant in women (29.8% in IBD versus 17.2% in our general population; p=0.0001), but not in men (9.6% in IBD vs 8.0%; p=0.45) (Figure 1).\u0000 By IBD subtypes, there were no significant differences between CD and UC in migraine prevalence (20.7% vs 19.6% respectively; p=0.58). Regarding IBD characteristics, men with total migraine had higher biologic treatment (66.7% vs 44% p=0.032), and immune mediated inflammatory diseases or extraintestinal manifestations of IBD (33.3% vs 9.6% p=0.0016), but the number of men with migraine was low (12). These associations were not significant for women, nor overall population (p>0.05). Additionally, we did not find any significant association in total migraine patients in the use of mesalazine, disease duration, immunomodulators, surgeries or hospitalizations, neither in total number of patients nor stratified by sex.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Migraine prevalence is higher in patients with IBD than general population, which is a further example of the bidirectional gut-brain interaction. The fact that this association was stronger for women suggests an influence of sex-related factors.\u0000 ISCIII PI20/01358 and FEDER.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":15453,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Crohn's and Colitis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139632472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, during ambulatory oral EEN, a lack of routine monitoring for vitamins may occur, with a potential risk of hypervitaminosis-related toxicity, which remains unexplored. This study aims to assess the serum levels of vitamins and micronutrients in CD patients undergoing EEN and to examine its potential impact.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Complicated phenotype CD patients followed at a University Tertiary Hospital who were started on oral EEN June 2021 - June 2023 were prospectively included. EEN composition was determined and modified by an IBD nutritionist according to patients’ nutritional status and needs and laboratory values. Compliance was monitored daily, both for in- and outpatients. Patients’ weight and serum values (albumin, C-reactive protein [CRP], iron, folic acid, and vitamins B1, B6, B12, A, D, E and K) were monitored weekly.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Nine patients (median age 29 years, 55.6% female) received a median of 24 (IQR 14.5-25.0) days of EEN, for PNO of symptomatic stricturing (7, 77.8%) or abdominal penetrating disease (2, 22.2%). All patients were discharged while on EEN, which was maintained until elective surgery (4, 44.4%) or the planned start of advanced medical therapy (5, 55.6%), with EEN successfully avoiding emergent surgeries. Patients were started on a combination of hypercaloric-hyperproteic and hypercaloric-normoproteic ready-to-drink concentrated polymeric formulas, providing 30 kcal/kg/d and 1.2-1.5g/kg/d of protein. EEN daily volume ranged from 1000 to 1400mL. Compliance was 100%, requiring flavour adjustments for tolerance. Table 1 illustrates changes over time in patients' weight and serum levels of interest. Resolution of anaemia and hypoalbuminemia was achieved, while weight was maintained . Hypervitaminosis cases were remarkably detected: 5 (55.6%) for vitamin B1, 4 (44.4%) for A, 2 (22.2%) for E, and 3 (33.3%) for K, with increasing trends over time. However, no symptoms related to hypervitaminosis were reported.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Our study on PNO EEN in CD uncovered a gap in routine monitoring for essential vitamins during EEN. While achieving significant clinical improvement, our findings revealed subtle and asymptomatic cases of hypervitaminosis in short-term EEN courses. These results underscore that vitamin monitoring is advisable during EEN, especially in prolonged EEN protocols due to possible hypervitaminosis-related toxicity.\u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":15453,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Crohn's and Colitis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139632603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
