Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic disease with variable degrees of extent, severity, and activity. A proportion of patients will have disease that is refractory to licensed therapies, resulting in significant impairment in quality of life. The treatment of these patients involves a systematic approach by the entire multidisciplinary team, with particular consideration given to medical options including unlicensed therapies, surgical interventions, and dietetic and psychological support. The purpose of this review is to guide clinicians through this process and provide an accurate summary of the available evidence for different strategies.

Histological scoring plays a key role in the assessment of disease activity in ulcerative colitis [UC] and is also important in Crohn´s disease [CD]. Currently, there is no common scoring available for UC and CD. We aimed to validate the Inflammatory Bowel Disease [IBD]—Distribution [D], Chronicity [C], Activity [A] score [IBD-DCA score] for histological disease activity assessment in IBD.

Histological healing might be the ultimate therapeutic goal in ulcerative colitis [UC]. Our aim was to investigate the association between histological disease activity as measured by a validated index and long-term outcomes in patients with UC.

Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] affects all aspects of life, yet little is known about the impact of the condition on intimacy and sexuality and if such concerns should be discussed with health care professionals. This hermeneutical phenomenological study aimed to explore the experiences of people living with inflammatory bowel disease and discussing their sexuality concerns with health care professionals.

The association between smoking and inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] relies on old meta-analyses including exclusively non-Jewish White populations. Uncertainty persists regarding the role of smoking in other ethnicities.

Congenital chloride diarrhoea [CLD] is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the solute family carrier 26 member 3 [SLC26A3] gene. Patients suffer from life-long watery diarrhoea and chloride loss. Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] has been reported in individual patients with CLD and in scl26a3-deficient mice.

Dysfunction of the vitamin D receptor [VDR] contributes to the aetiology of IBD by regulating autophagy, immune response, and mucosal permeability. VDR directly controls the paracellular tight junction protein Claudin-2. Claudin-2 and Claudin-15 are unique in maintaining paracellular permeability. Interestingly, claudin-15 mRNA was downregulated in patients with ulcerative colitis. However, the exact mechanism of Claudin-15 regulation in colitis is still unknown. Here, we investigated the protective role of VDR against intestinal inflammation via upregulating Claudin-15.

Intestinal fibrosis is a common complication of Crohn’s disease [CD]. It is characterised by an accumulation of fibroblasts differentiating into myofibroblasts secreting excessive extracellular matrix. The potential role of the intestinal epithelium in this fibrotic process remains poorly defined.

Matrix metalloproteinases [MMPs] play an important role in extracellular matrix regulation during cell growth and wound healing. Increased expression of MMP-12 [human macrophage elastase] has been reported in inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] which is characterised by the loss of epithelial tight junction [TJ] barrier function and an excessive inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of MMP-12 in intestinal TJ barrier function and inflammation.

The management of colorectal stricture complicating inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] remains a challenging condition. Stricture raises concern about neoplastic complications, which cannot be fully ruled out by negative endoscopic biopsies. Also, impassable strictures restrict the endoscopic monitoring of upstream disease activity and dysplasia. Surgery remains the ‘gold standard’ treatment for colonic strictures but is associated with high morbidity. Over the past few decades, our therapeutic arsenal for IBD has been reinforced by biologics and therapeutic endoscopy. Few studies have focused on colonic strictures, and so current therapeutic strategies are based on a low level of evidence and applied by analogy with the treatment of ileal strictures. With a view to facilitating the decision making process in clinical practice, we reviewed the literature on the epidemiology, natural history, and management of colonic strictures in IBD.
