Endoscopy in Paediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract, which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).

A synonym for inflammatory bowel disease that is abbreviated the same way is ‘irritable bowel disease’. Affected dogs may be presented with a history of vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss or a combination of these signs. There is a great deal of variation in the severity, du...

Heart Rate Recovery Is Impaired in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Active Disease versus Remission

The authors suggested that the chronic inflammation present in patients with chronic inflammatory bowel disease might have a role in the deterioration of the autonomic function. Proinflammatory responses have been associated with an impaired autonomic response and heart rate variability in a previous study [4] . Recently, Efe et al. [5] found an independent association between IBD and interatri...
