Active clinical trials for "Intestinal Diseases"

The goal of the proposed study is to assess the prevalence of intestinal parasitic diseases in adults and children. These invasions are included to "dirty hand diseases" (per os invasions), therefore it applies mainly preschool children.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the sensitivity and specificity of the BÜHLMANN fCAL™ ELISA as an aid in diagnosis to differentiate between Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD; Crohn's Disease (CD), Ulcerative Colitis (UC), or indeterminate colitis) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). To estimate the predictive value of a positive test (positive predictive value (PPV)) and the predictive value of a negative test (Negative Predictive Value (NPV)) using the proposed test outcomes for BÜHLMANN Calprotectin Test results when used in patients referred for diagnostic evaluation with signs and symptoms suggestive of either IBS or IBD. To confirm the inter-laboratory consistency of test results for the BÜHLMANN fCAL™ ELISA. To provide exploratory observations of test results in patients between the age of 2 and 21 years. To provide a sample set from normal subjects with no symptoms or signs of gastrointestinal disease for use in Expected Value Testing.

Background: The immunologic response to stress is regulated by the cytokines. Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-α agents are antibodies directed against a key cytokine in the process angiogenesis and collagen synthesis. It is not known whether they intervene with surgical stress response increasing the rate of postoperative complications. Method: Un-blinded prospective, non-interventional cohort single centre study including all the patients with Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis undergoing abdominal surgery. Immunological and endocrinological parameters will measured in blood samples taken from these patients before and after surgery. Power calculations showed that 17 patients in each arm are needed.

Compare changes in bowel function before, 6 months and one year after Robotic-assisted laparoscopic sacral colpopexy. Compare objective anatomic outcomes before, 6 months and one year after Robotic-assisted laparoscopic sacral colpopexy.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the treatment patterns associated with biologics agents use or non-biological therapy in participants with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD).

An ileostomy is a surgical opening established by bringing the end or a loop of the ileum to discharge directly outside the body. This is typically done when part or the entire colon is removed because of IBD, cancer, or familial adenomatous polyposis. Reversal of this procedure, an ileostomy closure, may be done if possible. Ileostomy closure involves reconnecting the ileum to the remaining colon, allowing normal bowel movements again. This study will look at the outcomes of these surgeries in patients who were seen and operated on by the investigators.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the development of anti-drug antibody to biosimilar CT-P13 and to assess the change of drug concentration for 1 year in patients with moderately to severe inflammatory bowel disease.

Malnutrition and growth retardation are major extraintestinal presentations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood and are especially prevalent among those with Crohn's disease. We aimed to evaluate nutritional status of children with IBD at the time of diagnosis.

The main aim of this study is to check the disease activity in people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Participants will complete questionnaires about their disease and quality of life on Day 1 clinic visit. They will do this during a standard scheduled appointment with their doctor. Some of this study will also involve collecting information about participants from their medical records.

To find out what adaptations have been made by Inflammatory bowel disease physicians and patients in relation to therapies in flaring IBD patients during severe acute respiratory syndrome 2-COV and what the impact of these is on IBD patients with no symptomatic COVID-19 and in suspected/confirmed COVID-19. Also whether there any IBD related factors impacting the outcome of patients with COVID-19 symptoms or COVID-19 disease
