Effectiveness of 5-aminosalicylic acid for maintaining remission in patients with Crohn's disease: a meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVES We conducted a meta-analysis of the published randomized clinical trials to evaluate the effectiveness of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) for maintaining remission in inactive Crohn's disease. METHODS The trials were identified by standard computerized techniques for literature search. All studies included in the meta-analysis were aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of 5-ASA in co...
متن کاملAzathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine for maintenance of surgically-induced remission in Crohn's disease.
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory condition. Many patients fail to achieve remission with medical management and require surgical interventions. Purine analogues have been used to maintain surgically-induced remission in CD, but the effectiveness of these agents is unclear. OBJECTIVES The objectives were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of purine analogues...
متن کاملMesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid) induced chronic hepatitis.
BACKGROUND Treatment of ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease with sulphasalazine causes several adverse effects, including hepatitis. Sulphasalazine is cleaved by colonic bacteria into 5-aminosalicylic acid and sulphapyridine. Received wisdom was that 5-aminosalicylic acid was topically active, whereas sulphapyridine was absorbed and caused immunoallergic side effects. Mesalazine, a slow relea...
متن کاملElectrochemical Synthesis of 5-Aminosalicylic Acid from 5- Nitrosalicylic Acid in Alkaline Media
5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is currently prepared by electrochemical reduction of 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-NSA) in acidic media. In this work, electrolytic reduction of 5-NSA in alkaline media is presented. Reactionconditions and parameters such as anode and cathode electrodes, electrolyte type, reaction time, temperature,current, and the pH for isolation of product are investigated. The yiel...
متن کاملOral 4-aminosalicylic acid versus 5-aminosalicylic acid slow release tablets. Double blind, controlled pilot study in the maintenance treatment of Crohn's ileocolitis.
4-Aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA) has been suggested as an effective treatment for both active and quiescent ulcerative colitis. 5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is well accepted for the maintenance treatment of inactive ulcerative colitis. Moreover, recent studies suggest that 5-ASA may also be effective in maintaining remission in Crohn's colitis. As treatment with 4-ASA may result in less side effe...
