RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcome and to identify predictors for survival and enteral autonomy in neonatal intestinal failure (IF). METHODS: A retrospective observational study in a Swedish tertiary centre of children born between 1995 and 2016 with neonatal IF, defined as dependency on parenteral nutrition (PN) ≥60 days, starting with PN before the age of 44 gestational weeks. Data were extracted from medical records and predictors for survival and enteral autonomy were identified by the Cox regression model. Time to death and weaning off PN analysis were performed with Kaplan-Meier curves including log rank test. RESULTS: In total, 105 children were included. Median gestational age was 28 weeks (22-42), 50% were born extremely preterm (<28 gestational weeks). PN started at a median age of 2 days (0-147) with a median duration of 196 days (60-3091). Necrotizing enterocolitis was the dominating cause of IF (61%). Overall survival was 88%, 5 children died of sepsis and 4 of intestinal failure-associated liver disease. Survival increased from 75% during 1995 to 2008 to 96% during 2009 to 2016 (P = 0.0040). Age-adjusted small bowel length of >50% and birth 2009 to 2016 were predictors for survival. Enteral autonomy was achieved in 87%, with positive prediction by small bowel length of >25% of expected for gestational age and remaining ileocecal valve. CONCLUSIONS: Preterm neonates with IF, at high risk of IF-associated morbidity, showed a high overall survival rate. Small-bowel length and being born 2009 to 2016 were predictors for survival and remaining ICV and small-bowel length were predictors for enteral autonomy.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of granulocyte and monocyte apheresis (GMA) with mesalazine for induction of remission in pediatric patients with newly onset chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) colitis. METHODS: Thirteen pediatric patients with newly onset extensive IBD colitis were investigated per the ECCO/ESPGHAN IBD protocol. Of these 13, 12 received 10 treatments with Adacolumn (ADA) during a median of 6.25 weeks in combination with low-to-moderate doses of mesalazine, which was continued after apheresis. A control colonoscopy was performed 12 to 16 weeks after GMA treatment. Primary outcomes were mucosal healing (Mayo endoscopic score) and histopathologic grading of biopsies. A secondary outcome was disease activity as measured by the Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index. RESULTS: Twelve children (6 girls) with a median age of 14.6 years and a median duration of symptoms at diagnosis of 3.2 months received all planned 10 treatment sessions with ADA. Ten of 12 patients had pancolitis and 2 of 12 extensive colitis. A final diagnosis, however, indicated ulcerative colitis in 10 children and Crohn disease in 2 children. At control colonoscopy, 8 of 12 children were in clinical remission and the Mayo endoscopic score showed significant improvement in 9 of 12 patients (P = 0.006). Complete microscopic remission, according to the Geboes score, was observed in 2 patients. CONCLUSIONS: In this small study GMA for induction of remission of newly onset pediatric IBD colitis was effective in 8 of 12 patients. Further controlled studies are warranted to confirm the efficacy of this treatment model.

RESUMEN

Granulocyte/monocyte apheresis (GMA) selectively removes circulating granulocytes and monocytes; important producers of proinflammatory cytokines. Seven children with new-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) colitis were treated with GMA together with mesalazine, and had significant decreases in Pediatric UC Activity Index (P = 0.018) and Mayo endoscopic score (P = 0.013). We investigated the colonic mucosal cytokine profiles (analyzed with real-time polymerase chain reaction), before and after induction treatment, and in 6 non-IBD controls. Significant decreases were seen in Colony Stimulating Factor 2 (P = 0.018), tumor necrosis factor-α (P = 0.028), interleukin (IL)-23α (P = 0.043), IL-1ß (P = 0.028), IL-36γ (P = 0.018), IL-10 (P = 0.028), and transforming growth factor beta 1 (P = 0.043) after treatment. In 6 non-IBD controls there were significantly lower levels of IL-12ß (P = 0.023) and IL-23α (P = 0.046) compared to the patients with IBD at onset, and IL-22 (P = 0.088) and IL-36γ (P = 0.062) showed lower values without reaching significant differences. We speculate that the decreases in colonic mucosal cytokine profiles after treatment may explain the observed clinical efficacy in the GMA-treated children with IBD.

RESUMEN

The role of trough serum infliximab (s-IFX) and antibodies toward IFX (ATI) during maintenance treatment remains unclear in children. The aim of the present study was to investigate trough s-IFX and ATI to identify any correlation with inflammatory activity and clinical response in a pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) cohort. We investigated the s-IFX trough levels in pediatric IBD patients (n = 45) on maintenance IFX treatment. Ninety-three blood samples were collected and demographics, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and albumin were recorded. The mean s-IFX trough level was 5.2 µg/mL. The mean trough s-IFX level was significantly higher in the samples taken during remission (7.2 µg/mL) compared to active disease (4.5 µg/mL, p < 0.05). The trough s-IFX levels correlated with ESR, CRP, and albumin. S-IFX was undetectable in eight of the patients, all with positive ATI and active disease. Surprisingly, clinical and biochemical remission was observed at only 26 of the 93 visits. The correlation between dose variations and changes in trough s-IFX was not evident. In line with studies in adults, the s-IFX trough levels correlated with response to infliximab.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Childhood onset Crohn's disease (CD) is considered more aggressive than adult onset disease. Epithelioid cell granulomas in intestinal biopsies are one, non-obligate, criterion of CD. We investigated granulomas as markers of CD severity in children followed to adulthood. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Forty-five individuals with childhood onset CD were studied from diagnosis until attainment of final height, with data on disease location, medical and surgical management and with detailed growth data analyses. A blinded review of diagnostic biopsies was also performed. RESULTS: We found granulomas in 22/45 (49%) children at diagnosis, altogether in 28/45 (62%) patients during the disease course (median overall follow-up - 12.3 years, range 9.3-18). Granulomas were found in 9/11 (82%) with upper gastrointestinal involvement (cumulatively 17/20, 85%) (p = 0.017 and p = 0.006, respectively). The time from diagnosis to initiating immune modulating treatment (median 4.5 months, range 0-75) was shorter in the granuloma-positive group (16/22) compared to the granuloma-negative group (18/23) (median 33 months, range 2-105; p = 0.01). The median standard deviation score height at diagnosis and final adult height (both adjusted for target height) did not correlate to findings of granulomas. CONCLUSIONS: Epithelioid cell granulomas were associated with a shorter time to initiating immune modulating drugs, as a possible sign of more severe disease, but growth was not affected.

RESUMEN

Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN) is the first-line treatment in children with Crohn's disease (CD) for induction of remission. However, the mode of action remains conjectural. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the effect of EEN is paralleled by changes in the mucosal cytokine profiles (MCP). Twelve children with new onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) received induction treatment with a polymeric EEN. We assessed clinical, endoscopic and histologic scoring before and after EEN. Twelve colonic cytokines were analyzed by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in six of the IBD patients at onset and after EEN as well as in six non-IBD control children at the diagnostic colonoscopy. Twelve children completed 6 weeks of EEN, except from one child who completed 4 weeks. At the control colonoscopy, 83% were in complete clinical remission. Changes were found in the MCPs of individual patients after EEN. In particular, children with IBD showed significantly higher values of Interleukin (IL)-12ß (p = 0.008) and IL-23α (p = 0.02) compared to non-IBD controls at the diagnostic colonoscopy. Furthermore, an overall change in proinflammatory cytokines was noted in the IBD-group after treatment. Further studies are warranted to understand the role of EEN in MCP.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The protein calprotectin (S100 A8/A9) is present in neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages. Colorectal inflammation can be detected by increased excretion of fecal calprotectin (FC). The aim of this study was to evaluate FC as a quantitative marker of inflammatory activity in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-nine children with IBD delivered a fecal spot sample and underwent colonoscopy. The samples were examined with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for FC (Calprest, Eurospital, Trieste, Italy). The concentrations were correlated to macroscopic and microscopic assessments of extent and severity of inflammation in 8 colonic segments for each patient. RESULTS: FC correlated significantly to the macroscopic extent (Spearman rho = 0.61) and the severity (Spearman rho = 0.52) of colonic inflammation and to a macroscopic, combined extent and severity score (Spearman rho = 0.65). Significant correlations also were found to the microscopic extent (Spearman rho = 0.71) and severity (Spearman rho = 0.72) of colonic inflammation and to a microscopic, combined extent and severity score (Spearman rho = 0.75). The median FC was 392 mug/g (95% confidence interval [CI], 278-440) in children with clinical IBD symptoms (n = 23) and 32.9 mug/g (95% CI, 9.4-237) in asymptomatic IBD patients (n = 16). Of the asymptomatic children, 56% had a complete microscopic mucosal healing, and their median FC was 9.9 mug/g (95% CI, 5.9-41.9). CONCLUSIONS: FC can be used as a surrogate marker for estimation of colonic inflammation in pediatric IBD. Normalized FC concentration seems to indicate complete mucosal healing. FC is simple to obtain and analyze; this should facilitate objective assessment and monitoring of IBD activity.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Lymphoid follicles (LFs) have been suggested to play a role at the early stage of Crohn's disease (CD) lesions. In the small bowel, LFs are grouped, forming Peyer's patches, which develop early in fetal life, grow in size and number until puberty, and undergo involution. In contrast, colonic LFs are isolated and undergo little change during life. As a result, if LFs play a role in the occurrence of CD lesions, the distribution of ileal and colonic lesions is expected to be altered in small children. METHODS: Medical records of 2 independent French (n = 136) and Swedish (n = 55) cohorts of consecutive pediatric CD were reviewed. Disease sites and age of onset were recorded, and the age-dependent probability to develop ileal lesions was computed. The CARD15/NOD2 genotype was also analyzed when available (n = 99). RESULTS: The curves of disease occurrence were significantly different in case of CD with or without ileal lesions (P < 0.0001). At the age of 8 years, the probability (95% confidence interval) of small bowel involvement was 0.19 (0.07-0.39). It increased until 16 years of age to 0.61 (0.54-0.68). It was slightly higher in patients carrying 1 or more CARD15/NOD2 mutations [0.75 (0.55-0.89)] than in wild-type patients [0.46 (0.34-0.58)]. CARD15 mutations also influenced the age of onset of ileal disease (P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: In children, ileal CD lesions are delayed compared with colonic lesions. This observation is in agreement with the previously proposed hypothesis of a pathophysiological role of Peyer's patches in ileal CD. The rarity of small bowel lesions should be a warning to be cautious when classifying chronic colitis in small children.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The composition of the intestinal microbiota seems to be an important factor in determining the clinical outcome in children with short bowel syndrome (SBS). Alterations in the microbiota may result in serious complications such as small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO) and intestinal mucosal inflammation that lead to prolonged parenteral nutrition (PN) dependency with subsequently increased risk of liver failure and sepsis. To date, there are no reported mappings of the intestinal microbiome in children with SBS. Here, we present the first report on the intestinal microbial community profile in children with SBS. FINDINGS: The study includes children diagnosed with SBS in the neonatal period. Healthy siblings served as controls. Fecal samples were collected, and microbial profiles were analyzed by using 16S rRNA gene sequencing on the Illumina MiSeq platform. We observed a pronounced microbial dysbiosis in children with SBS on PN treatment with an increased and totally dominating relative abundance of Enterobacteriacae in four out of five children compared to children with SBS weaned from PN and healthy siblings. CONCLUSIONS: The overall decreased bacterial diversity in children with SBS is consistent with intestinal microbiome mappings in inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants. Our findings indicate that intestinal dysbiosis in children with SBS is associated with prolonged PN dependency.

RESUMEN

Crohn's disease (CD) is a complex genetic disorder for which aetiology is unknown. Recently, genetic factors for susceptibility have been described. Several genetic loci have been mapped and partially explain the familial aggregations of the disease. However, environmental factors may also contribute to these aggregations. We considered that if the role of non-genetic factors was negligible, CD patients would be randomly distributed in sibships with multiple affected siblings. On the other hand if there was a significant environmental contribution, the siblings would be affected non-randomly over exposure status. In order to test this hypothesis, we studied 102 sibships with two or more affected siblings. A statistical test, named Cluster of Affected Sibling Test or CAST, was developed, based on the exact calculation of the probability of observing a given number of clusters of affected siblings in multiplex families. The null hypothesis of a random distribution of affected siblings was rejected (P=0.005). The observed excess of affected sibling clusters indicates that birth order influences the disease status. Considering that an adjacent order of birth is a global estimate of environmental sharing, this observation strongly suggests that environmental factors contribute to the observed familial aggregations of the disease. This observation provides evidence that familial CD is a relevant tool for further studies of environmental factors and gene-environment interaction. More generally, the CAST statistics may be widely applicable to estimate the involvement of environmental factors in the aetiology of other binary traits which may be observed in multiple members of the same sibship.

RESUMEN

Outcome after intestinal transplantation has improved dramatically since the introduction of novel immunosuppressive agents and refined surgical techniques. Small bowel transplantation is now considered to be the best treatment modality for patients with life threatening complications of intestinal failure and parenteral nutrition. We hereby review the international experience as well as the first ten cases of intestinal transplantation performed in Sweden.

RESUMEN

AIM: To investigate a possible genetic influence of claudin (CLDN)1, CLDN2 and CLDN4 in the etiology of inflammatory bowel disease. METHODS: Allelic association between genetic regions of CLDN1, CLDN2 or CLDN4 and patients with inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis were investigated using both a case-control study approach (one case randomly selected from each of 191 Swedish inflammatory bowel disease families and 333 controls) and a family-based study (463 non-Swedish European inflammatory bowel disease -families). A nonsynonymous coding single nucleotide polymorphism in MORC4, located on the same linkage block as CLDN2, was investigated for association, as were two novel CLDN2 single nucleotide polymorphism markers, identified by resequencing. RESULTS: A single nucleotide polymorphism marker (rs12014762) located in the genetic region of CLDN2 was significantly associated to CD (case-control allelic OR = 1.98, 95%CI: 1.17-3.35, P = 0.007). MORC4 was present on the same linkage block as this CD marker. Using the case-control approach, a significant association (case control allelic OR = 1.61, 95%CI: 1.08-2.41, P = 0.018) was found between CD and a nonsynonymous coding single nucleotide polymorphism (rs6622126) in MORC4. The association between the CLDN2 marker and CD was not replicated in the family-based study. Ulcerative colitis was not associated to any of the single nucleotide polymorphism markers. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that a variant of the CLDN2-MORC4 region predisposes to CD in a Swedish population.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Advanced ileocecal Crohn's disease (ICD) is characterized by strictures, inflammation in the enteric nervous system (myenteric plexitis), and a high frequency of NOD2 mutations. Recent findings implicate a role of NOD2 and another CD susceptibility gene, ATG16L1, in the host response against single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses. However, the role of viruses in CD is unknown. We hypothesized that human enterovirus species B (HEV-B), which are ssRNA viruses with dual tropism both for the intestinal epithelium and the nervous system, could play a role in ICD. METHODS: We used immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization to study the general presence of HEV-B and the presence of the two HEV-B subspecies, Coxsackie B virus (CBV) and Echovirus, in ileocecal resections from 9 children with advanced, stricturing ICD and 6 patients with volvulus, and in intestinal biopsies from 15 CD patients at the time of diagnosis. RESULTS: All patients with ICD had disease-associated polymorphisms in NOD2 or ATG16L1. Positive staining for HEV-B was detected both in the mucosa and in myenteric nerve ganglia in all ICD patients, but in none of the volvulus patients. Expression of the cellular receptor for CBV, CAR, was detected in nerve cell ganglia. CONCLUSIONS: The common presence of HEV-B in the mucosa and enteric nervous system of ICD patients in this small cohort is a novel finding that warrants further investigation to analyze whether HEV-B has a role in disease onset or progress. The presence of CAR in myenteric nerve cell ganglia provides a possible route of entry for CBV into the enteric nervous system.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Newborn infants with short bowel syndrome (SBS) represent a high-risk group of developing intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD), which may be fatal. However, infants have a great capacity for intestinal growth and adaptation if IFALD can be prevented or reversed. A major contributing factor to IFALD may be the soybean oil-based intravenous lipid emulsions used since the introduction of parenteral nutrition (PN) 40 years ago. METHODS: This retrospective study compares the outcome in 20 neonates with SBS treated with parenteral fish oil (Omegaven) in combination with ω-6/9 lipid emulsions (ClinOleic) with the outcome in a historical cohort of 18 patients with SBS who received a soybean oil-based intravenous lipid emulsion (Intralipid). RESULTS: Median gestational age was 26 weeks in the treatment group and 35.5 weeks in the historical group. All patients were started on PN containing Intralipid that was switched to ClinOleic/Omegaven in the treatment group at a median age of 39 gestational weeks. In the treatment group, direct bilirubin levels were reversed in all 14 survivors with cholestasis (direct bilirubin >50 umol/L). Median time to reversal was 2.9 months. Only 2 patients died of liver failure (10%). In the historical cohort, 6 patients (33%) died of liver failure, and only 2 patients showed normalization of bilirubin levels. CONCLUSIONS: Parenteral fish oil in combination with ω-6/9 lipid emulsions was associated with improved outcome in premature neonates with SBS. When used instead of traditional soybean-based emulsions, this mixed lipid emulsion may facilitate intestinal adaptation by increasing the IFALD-free period.
