Abstract:
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), encompassing Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. Their aetiology is not fully understood but is thought to be a combination of the effect of environmental factors in a genetically susceptible person. The work presented is an examination of the phenotypic characteristics of CD in the Scottish population, and an investigation into genetic factors that may influence susceptibility and progression.

Abstract:
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes the subtypes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a common disease particularly in the Western world. IBD is characterised by inflammation of the small intestine and/or colon. The two subtypes affect different gut locations but both show an increased intestinal permeability or the 'leaky gut syndrome'. This led to the hypothesis that tight junction (TJ) proteins expressed in the epithelium may affect the intestinal permeability as a cause or effect of IBD.Initially, variants in the CARD15, IL23R and ATG16L1 genes, previously asso

Background: Not only does IBD lead to nutritional deficiencies, but also nutrients influence its pathophysiology: exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) is an effective primary treatment in Crohn's disease; and vitamin D (VitD) is involved in its pathogenesis and course. Aims: We hypothesised that nutrients impact on the course of IBD. We therefore studied the effect of EEN i) on long term clinical course in children; ii) on CD58, a costimulatory molecule at the intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) lines, iii) adults with Crohn's disease.

Crohn's Disease (CD) is a debilitating condition characterised by chronic intermittent intestinal inflammation.

Many therapeutic regimens are employed in CD treatment, but patients' responses to treatment and disease progression vary widely.

Abstract:
Detection of evolutionarily conserved pathogen motifs by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), particularly on dendritic cells (DCs), is crucial for adequate immune responses. Defects in DC function are known to be associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is the system through which exocannabinoids such as Δ<sup>9</sup>-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol signal. Regarding inflammation, cannabinoids generally exert anti-inflammatory effects, including on experimental colitis. However, most work has been performed in animal models and less is known abo

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Majoriteten av de som drabbas av inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom är kvinnor. Att drabbas vid ung ålder kan öka problematiken. Det finns luckor i forskningen om de psykosociala faktorernas inverkan. Kronisk sjukdom skapar ofta lidande och för att kunna hantera det på ett värdigt sätt krävs kunskap och förståelse. Patienternas erfarenheter om sin sjukdom genererar en bättre inblick och ökad förståelse för sjuksköterskan. Kunskapen hjälper sjuksköterskor att erbjuda god vård för att patienten ska kunna uppleva en så bra livskvalité som möjligt. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att belysa u

Abstract:
The objectives of this thesis were to synthesize existing RCT evidence and post-market observational evidence of TNF-α inhibitors in IBD. Two separate systematic reviews were performed: an overview of systematic reviews of RCTs, and a systematic review of post-market observational studies of TNF-α inhibitors in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The overview of systematic reviews included 37 studies. RCT evidence demonstrated superiority of all agents to placebo in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, with no increased risk of malignancy or serious adverse events. Network meta-analyses

Abstract:
Crohns sjukdom är en kronisk inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom av okänd orsak. Det tidigaste tecknet på Crohns sjukdom är mikroskopiska sår i det s.k. follikelassocierade epitelet (FAE) som täcker ansamlingar av immunceller i tarmen. FAE är specialiserat för att fånga innehåll från tarmen och transportera det till underliggande immunvävnad. Denna funktion är viktig för att inducera skyddande immunsvar, men den utgör också en ingångsväg för sjukdomsalstrande bakterier. Crohns sjukdom är associerat med ett kraftigt ökat immunsvar mot bakterier, och sjukdomsförloppet kan ändras av stress. Det övergripan
