Methods: A retrospective data analysis was conducted on 88 patients with Crohn’s disease who underwent surgical treatment, and Logistic regression was used to explore the related factors of complications in this patient population within 30 days after surgery. Results: A total of 15 patients experienced postoperative complications, including 3 cases of intestinal obstruction, 4 cases of anastomotic leakage, 1 case of incision infection, 5 cases of abdominal infection, 1 case of abdominal abscess, and 1 case of urinary tract infection. According to Logistic multiple regression score, the preoperative nutritional status (P = 0.012, OR = 1.89, 95%CI: 1.682~2.190), C-reactive protein index (P = 0.004, OR = 2.15, 95%CI: 1.301~2.652), and preoperative CDAI score (P = 0.042, OR = 1.1051, 95%CI: 1.686~13.628) were identified as factors affecting postoperative complications in patients with Crohn’s disease. Preoperative enteral nutrition can significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. Conclusion: Preoperative malnutrition, high CRP levels, and high preoperative CDAI scores are important influencing factors for the occurrence of postoperative complications in CD patients. Therefore, these factors can serve as predictive indicators for the risk of postoperative complications in Crohn’s disease. Preoperative enteral nutrition support can help reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.展开更多

As the prevalence of CD increases, the need for a more effective and safe treatment is integral. Probiotics have been reported to be beneficial for numerous gastrointestinal diseases, providing health benefits and considering the microbial characteristics of CD’s pathogenesis. However, our knowledge of the efficacy of probiotic therapy in preventing relapse in CD is limited. How gastroenterologists have incorporated probiotics into their practice or probiotics observed implications for patients with CD has not been assessed. A quantitative survey was distributed to determine how gastroenterologists perceive and use probiotic-based therapies in CD practice. The second objective was to conduct a meta-analysis of the efficacy of probiotics for maintaining remission and preventing clinical and endoscopic relapse in CD. Performing a meta-analysis and survey will examine the role of probiotics in CD treatment. Surveyed gastroenterologists cited that probiotics have an adjunctive role and have been observed to alleviate common CD symptoms. Probiotics seem effective in reducing the relapse rate, specifically those of the multi-strain variety are more likely to be effective in maintaining CD remission. Further research with larger trials is required to replicate and solidify this efficacy. The meta-analysis only assessed the efficacy of probiotics as a maintenance treatment as measured by the risk of relapse;thus, no evidence supports probiotics’ ability to induce remission. The results of the meta-analysis and survey indicate that probiotics cannot treat CD without accompanying conventional drug therapies;nevertheless, independent of treatment capacities, probiotics still yield health benefits for CD patients.展开更多

Evidence accumulated over the past decade points that uric acid (UA) may be one such novel CVD risk factor in rheumatoid arthritis, and therefore one may hypothesize that UA may contribute to the increased CVD burden in RA. The current study attempted to correlate the levels of clinical disease activity index (CDAI), high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and uric acid in DMARD naive non-diabetic, non-hypertensive, euthyroid patients with normal lipid profile suffering from early and established Rheumatoid Arthritis before and after 3 months of DMARD therapy. It showed a positive and significant correlation among uric acid levels and CDAI and hs-CRP levels at diagnosis. There was significant reduction in the levels of CDAI, hs-CRP and UA after 3 months of DMARD therapy with significant correlation among the changes in the 3 parameters and the change in Uric Acid also correlated with the levels of CDAI and hs-CRP at diagnosis. We propose to measure uric acid both as acute phase reactant and marker for cardiovascular morbidity in patients suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis.展开更多
