Book Dietary Therapy for Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Download or read book Dietary Therapy for Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease written by Naomi Rose Maas Schwartz and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study was to assess the potential health outcomes and economic impact of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) as a therapeutic option for pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In Aim 1, we evaluated the comparative effectiveness of the SCD as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy by using registry data to create an external control arm for an N-of-1 trial. In the full population, there was no statistically significant difference in the change in disease activity from baseline to eight weeks comparing the SCD plus pharmacotherapy to pharmacotherapy alone. In subgroup analyses limited to patients with active disease at baseline, the difference in differences in disease activity was statistically significant, but did not reach clinical significance. In Aim 2, we developed a hybrid decision tree Markov model to assess the value-based price (VBP) of the SCD for induction of remission in pediatric patients with active Crohn’s disease (CD). At an effectiveness of only 50%, we found that the VBP of the SCD at a willingness-to-pay threshold of $50,000 per quality-adjusted life year was close to $20,000, which far exceeds the likely cost of the diet. In Aim 3, we conducted a qualitative study of parents of patients with IBD treated at Seattle Children’s Hospital to assess perceived barriers to initiating and/or maintaining the SCD. We found that parents of children diagnosed with IBD primarily chose to try the SCD due to concerns about medication safety. Additionally, we identified that cost, time commitment, and psychosocial impact are three major barriers to utilizing the SCD. This work provides a foundation for further research into the population health and economic impacts of dietary therapy for IBD. Future studies are needed to assess both the direct and indirect costs of the SCD, as well as the effectiveness of the SCD as a stand-alone therapy and as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy. These data would enable more robust evaluation of the SCD as a therapeutic option, therefore providing essential information for clinicians, patients, payers, and policy-makers.

Book New Concepts in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Download or read book New Concepts in Inflammatory Bowel Disease written by Batool Mutar Mahdi and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic immune-mediated inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract of unknown origin, which includes Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and inflammatory bowel disease of unclassified type. It is associated with different intestinal and extraintestinal manifestations like different neurological and psychiatric disorders. Histology is an important tool in the diagnosis and prognosis of inflammatory bowel disease and has an increasing part in patients' management. The objective of treatment is to make and keep long-lasting remission by immunosuppressive treatment like corticosteroids, thiopurines, and monoclonal antibodies directed against tumor necrosis factor alpha. Therapeutic drug monitoring of thiopurines by measuring levels of their metabolites has been proposed as a potentially effective tool in optimizing therapy in inflammatory bowel disease. Diets and their components influence microbiota of the intestine, function of the epithelial barrier, immune response, and other factors that have an important role in development and treatment of inflammation in the gut mucosa.

Book The Personalized Diet

Download or read book The Personalized Diet written by Eran Segal and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A paradigm-shifting diet book that explains why one-size-fits-all diets don't work and helps readers customize their diet to lose weight and improve health. There are certain things we take as universal truths when it comes to dieting and health: kale is good; ice cream is bad. Until now. When Drs. Segal and Elinav published their groundbreaking research on personalized nutrition, it created a media frenzy. They had proved that individuals react differently to the same foods-a food that might be healthy for one person is unhealthy for another. In one stroke, they made all universal diet programs obsolete. The Personalized Diet helps readers understand the fascinating science behind their work, gives them the tools to create an individualized diet and lifestyle plan (based on their reactions to favorite foods) and puts them on the path to losing weight, feeling good, and preventing disease by eating in the way that's right for them.
