Laparoscopy for inflammatory bowel disease: pros and cons
Publication Year: 1998 Source: World J Surg PMID: 9523519 DOI: 10.1007/s002689900399
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterised by a chronic, but frequently remitting, clinical course involving significant morbidity. As medical and surgical advances have occurred, focus has shifted from merely reducing mortality to efforts on decreasing morbidity and improving health status. With this paradigm shift has come the need for qualitative …
Cytokines in inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 1998 Source: World J Surg PMID: 9523521 DOI: 10.1007/s002689900401
We have replicated the observation of McMahon et al. [1995] that there is excess maternal transmission of illness in a series of previously described unilineal Bipolar manic-depressive illness extended pedigrees [Berrettini et al., 1991]. ("Transmission" is defined for any ill person in a pedigree when father or mother has a …

Expression of interleukin 1 beta and interleukin 1 beta converting enzyme by intestinal macrophages in health and inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 1998 Source: Gut PMID: 9536946 DOI: 10.1136/gut.42.2.214
Physicians rely heavily on the presence of disease markers to support or even at times modify their clinical impression for certain diseases that can only be diagnosed clinically. Typically these markers play an important role in helping to establish a diagnosis and to evaluate the activity of a chronic disease …
Arthritic manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 1998 Source: J Korean Med Sci PMID: 9539317 DOI: 10.3346/jkms.1998.13.1.39
The aim of this study was to establish the usefulness of Tc-99m human polyclonal immunoglobulin (HIG) imaging in a group of patients who were suspected of having inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The authors performed 30 scans (15 with Tc-99m HMPAO leukocytes and 15 with Tc-99m HIG) on 15 patients with …
Fecal lysozyme in assessment of disease activity in inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 1998 Source: Dig Dis Sci PMID: 9539656 DOI: 10.1023/a:1018823426917
Management strategies in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis should be based on up-to-date information on disease distribution, extent, activity and complications. A system of structured analysis is suggested, with separate consideration of destructive ulceration, inflammatory activity and other factors. Direct investigation of gut immunity by using whole gut lavage fluid …
Evidence of linkage of the inflammatory bowel disease susceptibility locus on chromosome 16 (IBD1) to ulcerative colitis
Publication Year: 1998 Source: J Med Genet PMID: 9541106 DOI: 10.1136/jmg.35.3.218
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Health-related quality of life (HRQL) after proctocolectomy is a critical parameter for management decisions in patients with chronic pancolitis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the HRQL of patients with ileoanal pull-through and to validate new, easy-to-administer HRQL measures. METHODS: The Sickness Impact Profile (SIP), …
Multipoint quantitative-trait linkage analysis in general pedigrees
Publication Year: 1998 Source: Am J Hum Genet PMID: 9545414 DOI: 10.1086/301844
Comment in Gastroenterology. 1996 Sep;111(3):813-5. BACKGROUND & AIMS: Some families have multiple members with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Do clinical features of familial differ from sporadic cases? Is there concordance between affected family members? Do environmental factors affect familial clustering? METHODS: In 67 families, each with three or more first-degree …
Inflammatory bowel disease and pregnancy
Publication Year: 1998 Source: Gastroenterol Clin North Am PMID: 9546091 DOI: 10.1016/s0889-8553(05)70354-x
It is clinically important to distinguish idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) from other colitides, and ulcerative colitis (UC) from Crohn's disease (CD); however only a few histological criteria based on colonic biopsies have been established. We investigated 209 consecutive series of biopsies taken from 38 patients with UC, 12 with …
