Abstract Background Cholecystectomy (CCY) is one of the most frequently performed abdominal surgeries. However, the impact of CCY in clinical settings with altered gastrointestinal physiology and anatomy, such as Crohn’s disease (CD), has not been fully characterized. We sought to investigate clinical outcomes, disease severity, and quality of life of CD patients after CCY. Methods We utilized a prospective, longitudinal registry of consented CD patients followed at a tertiary center. Crohn’s disease patients that had or had not undergone CCY formed the 2 study groups. The absence or presence of gallbladder was confirmed with abdominal CT scans obtained during routine care. Multiyear clinical, biochemical, and histologic data were collected and analyzed. Results Among 834 CD patients, 151 (18%) had undergone CCY. History of CCY was associated with higher disease activity (median Harvey-Bradshaw index; P < 0.001), more years with anemia (P = 0.048), lower albumin (P = 0.001), worse quality of life (mean Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire; P < 0.001), chronic abdominal pain (P < 0.001), higher risk for incident colonic dysplasia (P = 0.011), higher rates of annual hospital admissions (P = 0.004), and opioid use (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, CCY remained associated with higher disease activity (P < 0.001), lower albumin (P = 0.008), lower quality of life (P < 0.001), and more hospital admissions (P = 0.008), whereas CD patients with diseased ileum had higher risk for colonic dysplasia (P = 0.031). Conclusions CCY in CD patients was associated with multiple markers of disease activity and worse quality of life during multiyear follow up. This data suggests that CCY in CD patients may adversely impact the long-term clinical course.

Abstract Background PROMIS Pediatric domains provide self-reported measures of physical, emotional, and social health in children with chronic conditions. We evaluated the responsiveness of the PROMIS Pediatric measures to changes in disease activity and disease-specific, health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in children with Crohn’s disease (CD). Methods IBD Partners Kids & Teens is an internet-based cohort of children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Participants age 9 to 17 report symptoms related to disease activity (short Crohn’s Disease Activity Index [sCDAI]), the IMPACT-III HRQOL measure, and 5 PROMIS Pediatric domains. We conducted longitudinal analyses using mixed linear models to examine the extent to which PROMIS Pediatric measures respond to changes in sCDAI and IMPACT-III. Results Our study sample included 544 participants with CD (mean age 13 years, 44% female). All PROMIS Pediatric domains responded to changes in sCDAI, indicating improved physical, emotional, and social health, corresponding to improved disease activity and the converse (P < 0.001). Observed effect estimates ranged from 1.8 for peer relationships to 6.8 for fatigue. Of 246 participants with 2 or more completed reports, disease activity was stable in 527, worse in 72, and improved in 67. Changes in PROMIS Pediatric scores were associated with changes in IMPACT-III (r = −0.43 for anxiety, r = −0.45 for depressive symptoms, r = −0.43 for pain interference, r = −0.59 for fatigue, and r = 0.23 for peer relationships). Conclusions This study provides evidence for the longitudinal responsiveness of the PROMIS Pediatric measures to change in disease status and HRQOL in pediatric CD patients.

Abstract Background/Aims  Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic rheumatic condition, characterised by inflammatory back pain - often associated with impaired function and mobility, sleep disturbance, fatigue, and reduced quality of life. Despite the vast advances in pharmacological treatments for axSpA over the last few decades, physical activity and rehabilitation remain vital for effective disease management. At the Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases in Bath (RNHRD), the 2-week inpatient axSpA rehabilitation programme has been integral to axSpA care since the 1970’s. Prior research has demonstrated significant short-term improvements in spinal mobility (BASMI), function (BASFI) and disease activity (BASDAI) following course attendance. However, the long-term outcomes are yet to be evaluated in this unique cohort. Methods  Since the early 1990’s, clinical measures of spinal mobility, function and disease activity have been routinely collected at the RNHRD at all clinical appointments through administration of the BASMI, BASFI and BASDAI, respectively. Dates of attending the axSpA course and standard clinical and treatment follow-up data were also collected. Multiple linear regression models were used to investigate the impact of course attendance on final reported BASMI, BASDAI and BASFI scores (final score=most recent). Length of follow-up was defined as time between first and last recorded BASMI. Results  Of the 203 patients within the Bath SPARC200 cohort, 77.8% (158/203) had attended at least one rehabilitation course throughout follow-up. 70.0% (140/203) of patients were male. The mean duration of follow-up was 13.5 years (range 0-35 years); 28.1% (57/203) of individuals with 20+ years of follow-up. Course attendance (yes versus no) significantly reduced final BASMI score by 0.84 (p = 0.001, 95%CI -1.31 to -0.37) and final BASDAI score by 0.74 (p = 0.018, 95%CI -1.34 to -0.13). Although course attendance reduced final BASFI by 0.45 (95%CI -1.17 to 0.28), this relationship did not reach significance (p = 0.225). Whilst minimally clinically important difference (MCID) is, to our knowledge, yet to be defined for BASMI, MCIDs were achieved long-term for both BASDAI and BASFI - defined by van der Heijde and colleagues in 2016 as 0.7 and 0.4 for BASDAI and BASFI, respectively. Conclusion  These results provide novel evidence to support the integral role of education, physical activity and rehabilitation in the management of axSpA. Future work should investigate additional outcomes of critical importance to patients and clinicians, such as fatigue, quality of life and work productivity. Furthermore, a greater understanding of the factors that confound these outcomes may provide insights into those patients who may most benefit from attending a 2-week rehabilitation course. In addition to facilitating identification of those patients who may require additional clinical support. Disclosure  R. Barnett: None. A. McGrogan: None. M. Young: None. C. Cavill: None. M.

The Impact

Background and Objectives: Anemia is the most frequent complication of inflammatory bowel diseases. Clinically, anemia can affect important quality-of-life (QoL) components, such as exercise capacity, cognitive function, and the ability to carry out social activities. The disease activity has a significant impact on QoL, mainly due to clinical manifestations, which are more severe during the periods of disease activity. Our aim was to estimate the impact of anemia on QoL in patients with Crohn’s disease. Material and Methods. We made a prospective study on 134 patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) in a Romanian tertiary center. The CD diagnosis was established by colonoscopy and histopathological examination. In particular cases, additional examinations were required (small bowel capsule endoscopy, computed tomography enterography, and magnetic resonance enterography). Anemia was defined according to the World Health Organization’s definition, the activity of the disease was assessed by Crohn’s disease activity index (CDAI) score, and the QoL was evaluated by Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire 32 (IBDQ 32). Results: 44.8% patient had anemia, statistically related to the activity of the disease and corticoids use. We found a strong association between QoL and disease activity on all four sub-scores: patients with more severe activity had a significantly lower IBDQ (260.38 ± 116.96 vs. 163.85 ± 87.20, p = 0.001) and the presence of anemia (127.03 vs. 148.38, p = 0.001). In multiple regression analyses, both disease activity and anemia had an impact on the QoL. Conclusions: Anemia has high prevalence in the CD in northeastern region of Romania. Anemia was more common in female patients, in patients undergoing corticosteroid treatment, and in those with active disease. Both anemia and disease activity had a strong negative and independent impact on QoL.
