Resistance testing was done in a small subset of patients.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 H. pylori-positive patients who received treatment in Edmonton, Alberta were included in a mITT analysis: 334/387(86%) from 2007 to 2015 and 193/199 (97%) from 2016 to 2021. During 2016–2021, 78% (150/193) of patients underwent cumulative guideline-based treatment with a successful cure in 80% (120/150) of patients. In those who were newly diagnosed, the cure rate was 88% (52/59) versus those with previous treatment failure 75% (68/91) (P < 0.05, risk difference [RD] 14%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.7–26.3%). The most effective first-line regimens were PAMC for 14 days (87% [45/52]) in 2016–2021 and sequential therapy in 2007–2015 (83% [66/80]) (P = 0.535, RD 4%, 95% CI −8.5–16.5%). When other treatments failed, success with PAR was 50% (2/4) from 2007 to 2015 and 57% (21/37) from 2016 to 2021. Recent (2016–2021) resistance rates to clarithromycin and metronidazole are high at 78% (50/64) and 56% (29/52), respectively. From 2007 to 2015, clarithromycin and metronidazole resistance rates were 80% (36/45) and 83% (38/46), respectively.

Intestinal eosinophils play important roles in microbial defence, immune regulation, tissue regeneration and remodelling, and maintaining tissue homeostasis and metabolism; degranulation of eosinophils releases toxic granule products (e.g., major basic protein, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin) which can damage nerves.

In clinical practice there is evidence that pathologically increased intestinal eosinophils may often be overlooked. In a meta-analysis duodenal eosinophils were significantly increased in FD although there was substantial heterogeneity; degranulation of duodenal eosinophils was also significantly higher in FD without significant heterogeneity. In addition, increased duodenal permeability, systemic immune activation, and an altered mucosa-associated duodenal microbiome have been identified that may help explain why symptoms arise, often occur after food with exposure to food antigens, and typically fluctuate.

Persons with IBD are at increased risk of mental health disorders. The aim was to understand how the COVID-19 pandemic affected adults with a chronic health issue, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), using a population-based sample. Methods A survey study in Manitoba was conducted during the second COVID-19 wave in autumn 2020. We assessed proportions of health anxiety and perceived stress using validated measures, as well as stressors during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis to assess predictors of perceived stress and health anxiety. Results A total of 1,384 (47.1%) persons responded, with a mean age of 58.0, and 46.9% had Crohn’s disease. Almost three quarters (73.7%) had increased stress, with 37.7% having increased stress about their IBD, and 33.6% worried about their IBD worsening. 46.0% felt increased stress about accessing their doctor or nurse, and 56.5% felt they had good access to their gastroenterologist. Elevated stress and health anxiety were seen in 63.5% and 17.2% of respondents, respectively. Younger age and being on immune-modifying therapy (IMT) was predictive of increased health anxiety and stress. Longer IBD duration was associated with decreased stress, including those on IMT.

It will be important to determine how this evolved over time and to what extent this impacted on disease course.","PeriodicalId":17263,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology","volume":"20 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135037974","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}

Treatment includes high-dose steroids, infliximab, and salvage therapies. Unfortunately, up to 20 percent of patients may need an urgent colectomy due to treatment failure. We report our experience using tofacitinib for the treatment of six patients. Methods A retrospective review of our medical electronic records was conducted. We included every patient with ASC and treatment failure, in whom tofacitinib was used as a salvage therapy. Response, complications, and disease course were noted. Results Six patients were included with Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI) scores ranging from 65 to 85 on admission, and 35 to 85 before tofacitinib was started (P 0.07). Median response time was 72 h. A median decrease of 40 points in PUCAI was noted (P 0.00001). Mean length of stay was 18 days with discharge 9 days after tofacitinib introduction. Haemoglobin, albumin, fecal calprotectin, and CRP improved after tofacitinib (P 0.02, P 0.02, P 0.025, and P 0.01, respectively). The mean follow-up was 8.5 months, four patients achieved complete remission and only one had a recrudescence of symptoms (P 0.01). One patient had a systemic Epstein-Barr virus infection prior to tofacitinib therapy, which resolved with rituximab treatment. No other complications were noted. Conclusions Tofacitinib response is rapid and impressive in children suffering from ASC, and the safety profile appears comparable to or better than other available treatments.
