Early onset inflammatory bowel disease: manifestations, genetics and diagnosis
Abstract:
Moazzami B, Moazzami K, Rezaei N. Early onset inflammatory bowel disease: manifestations, genetics and diagnosis. Turk J Pediatr 2019; 61: 637-647. Crohn`s disease and ulcerative colitis are immunologically mediated chronic inflammatory conditions, collectively referred to as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). While most studies have described the condition in the adult population, recent evidences suggest that IBD in children may represent an etiologically distinct disease from the adult onset IBD. Since a significant proportion of patients diagnosed with IBD demonstrate their clinical manifestations during childhood, knowledge about the disease progression, severity and diagnosis in this particular patient population is crucial. Therefore, in the present study, the clinical manifestations, recent advancements in the genetics of early onset IBD and the clinical approach to diagnoses of IBD in children are described.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...

Diagnostic studies
A colonoscopy is the definitive screening test, distinguishing ulcerative colitis from other colon diseases with similar symptoms. During a colonoscopy test, inflamed mucosa with exudate ulcerations can be observed, and biopsies are taken to determine the histologic characteristics of the...
