Inflammatory Bowel Disease III: Diagnostic Studies and Management I-Nutritional Therapy

337
Various diagnostic tests are employed in the diagnostic process for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), particularly to differentiate between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
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...

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones01:20

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones

4.6K
Low blood levels of the thyroid hormones — triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) — signal the hypothalamus to release the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH then reaches the pituitary gland and stimulates the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) into the bloodstream.
Upon reaching the thyroid gland, TSH stimulates the follicular cells' active uptake of iodide ions from the blood. The ions diffuse to the apical surface of the cells and are oxidized to iodine. The...

Functions of Thyroid Hormones

2.8K
The thyroid hormone (TH) plays a pivotal role in the intricate orchestration of physiological processes, exerting profound effects on development, metabolism, and homeostasis throughout different life stages.
TH is indispensable for the normal development and maturation of the skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems during fetal and childhood growth. It facilitates bone mineral turnover and regulates protein synthesis in developing tissues, contributing significantly to overall growth and...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease

256
Introduction
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...

Inflammatory Response01:28

Inflammatory Response

2.0K
An inflammatory response is a localized, nonspecific immune reaction that occurs when a tissue is injured. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which are commonly called the cardinal signs and symptoms of inflammation. Inflammation can sometimes result in a loss of function.
Inflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, such as impact, abrasion, chemical irritation, infections, and extreme hot or cold temperatures. These can damage cells and connective tissue fibers,...

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Immunomodulatory Agents

168
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder marked by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. Various treatment strategies for Crohn's disease are employed, such as immunomodulatory agents, glucocorticoids, and biologics or anti-TNF therapy. Azathioprine (Imuran), a commonly used immunomodulatory drug for Crohn's disease, is converted in the body to mercaptopurine, which inhibits purine biosynthesis and cell proliferation. Both are utilized in severe cases of Inflammatory Bowel...

Summary

A pro-inflammatory diet is linked to higher thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and total thyroxine (T4) levels in Hashimoto thyroiditis patients. Controlling dietary inflammation may help prevent hypothyroidism in this population.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Nutrition Science
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Thyroid function changes are linked to inflammation in Hashimoto thyroiditis.
  • Dietary factors can influence autoantibody levels in Hashimoto thyroiditis.
  • The impact of dietary inflammation on thyroid function in Hashimoto thyroiditis is not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the association between dietary inflammation and thyroid function in Hashimoto thyroiditis patients.
  • To utilize data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Main Methods:

  • Weighted multivariable linear regression analysis.
  • Subgroup analyses and interaction analyses were performed.
  • Examined the relationship between the dietary inflammatory index and thyroid function markers.

Main Results:

  • A positive correlation was observed between the dietary inflammatory index and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and total thyroxine (TT4).
  • An interaction between urinary iodine concentration and free triiodothyronine (FT3) was detected, though subgroup analyses lacked statistical significance.
  • Patients with a more pro-inflammatory diet exhibited elevated TSH and TT4 levels.

Conclusions:

  • A pro-inflammatory diet is associated with altered thyroid function (higher TSH and TT4) in Hashimoto thyroiditis.
  • Managing dietary inflammation is crucial for preventing hypothyroidism in Hashimoto thyroiditis patients.
  • Further prospective cohort studies are needed to confirm causality.
