“…Th e diagnosis is generally not suspected until a patient complains of specifi c joint pain, and it is then established by magnetic resonance imaging. Th e distribution of aff ected joints in IBD is similar to other conditions associated with osteonecrosis, with the hips being the most frequently involved ( 141 ).…”

Guidelines for clinical practice are aimed to indicate preferred approaches to medical problems as established by scientifi cally valid research. Double-blind placebo controlled studies are preferable, but compassionate-use reports and expert review articles are used in a thorough review of the literature conducted through Medline with the National Library of Medicine. When only data that will not withstand objective scrutiny are available, a recommendation is identifi ed as a consensus of experts. Guidelines are applicable to all physicians who address the subject regardless of specialty training or interests and are aimed to indicate the preferable but not necessarily the only acceptable approach to a specifi c problem. Guidelines are intended to be fl exible and must be distinguished from standards of care, which are infl exible and rarely violated. Given the wide range of specifi cs in any healthcare problem, the physician must always choose the course best suited to the individual patient and the variables in existence at the moment of decision. Guidelines are developed under the auspices of the American College of Gastroenterology and its Practice Parameters Committee and approved by the board of trustees. Each has been intensely reviewed and revised by the Committee, other experts in the fi eld, physicians who will use them, and specialists in the science of decision analysis. The recommendations of each guideline are therefore considered valid at the time of composition based on the data available. New developments in medical research and practice pertinent to each guideline will be reviewed at a time established and indicated at publication to assure continued validity. The recommendations made are based on the level of evidence found. Grade A recommendations imply that there is consistent level 1 evidence (randomized controlled trials), grade B indicates that the evidence would be level 2 or 3, which are cohort studies or case -control studies. Grade C recommendations are based on level 4 studies, meaning case series or poor-quality cohort studies, and grade D recommendations are based on level 5 evidence, meaning expert opinion.

“…More profound psychiatric problems, including depression and psychosis, may become unmasked or exacerbated by steroid therapy. Osteonecrosis, particularly of the femoral heads, can be related to corticosteroid therapy or the underlying disease [458,459].…”

In the US, H. pylori vacA shows allelic variation in the signal sequence (which may be type sla, slb or s2) and the mid-region (type ml or m2). Previous PCR-based vacA mid-region typing classified most, but not all, Asian and South American strains tested as ml or m2. We now sought to investigate vacA mid-region diversity further.MotlmodL We studied 13 Japanese, 6 Chinese, 9 Thai, and 8 Peruvian H. pylori isolates. cagA was identified by colony hybridisation (CH), vacA signal sequence was typed by PCR, and vacA mid-region was typed proximally by CH and distally by PCR. Sections of the vacA mid-region from 8 strains were PCR-amplified, sequenced, and compared with known sequences from 8 other strains.Rcuts Of the 36 Asian and South American strains studied, 35 were cagA+ (the cagA-was Peruvian) and 35 were vacA sla (1 cagA + Peruvian was slb). vacA mid-regions from the 13 Japanese strains were not PCR-amplified by ml or m2-specific primers, but hybridised weakly with an ml probe. Sequence analysis of vacA from 1 Japanese strain revealed 91% nucleotide identity with the ml probe but only 71% identity with the m2 probe. The previously equivocal Thai and Peruvian strains also had ml-like mid-region sequences. A Chinese strain was ml in the proximal mid-region and m2 distally, showing a clear crossover site. Final mid-region types were: Japanese, all 13 ml; Chinese, 1 ml, 1 ml/m2, 4 m2; Thai, 3 ml, 6 m2; Peruvian 4 ml, 4 m2. Distal mid-region sequences of 16 strains, compared over 294 bp, clustered into 2 groups, ml and m2. Nucleotide identity between ml and m2 strains ranged from 73-78%. Within groups, m2 strains were less diverse than ml strains (m2 range 94-99.7%, ml 88-99.3%, p<0.001). Sequence analysis of 7 ml and 3 m2 strains over 1.1kb proximally showed maintenance of clustering outside the 294bp region C duions These Asian and South American strains are similar in terms of cagA status and vacA sla genotype, but fall into 2 vacA midregion groups. ml sequences are more diverse than m2, and thus may be phylogenetically older. The vacA sequence of 1 Chinese strain suggests recombination in vivo between ml and m2 alleles. Introduction: H.pylori antimicrobial susceptibility is an important determinant ofthe efficacy of eradication therapies'. The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance varies within the UK and may increase given the increased use of eradication therapy. This multicentre study assesses the prevalence and possible associations ofH.pylon antimicrobial resistance. Methods: H.pylon was isolated from antral biopsies of patients undergoing routine endoscopy and cultured according to standard microbiological methods. Antimicrobial resistance was determined using "E-tests" or disc tests (tinidazole only) with breakpoints defined by previous studies. Results: H.pyloni was isolated from 32% (1222/3823) of patients and antimicrobial susceptibility determined in 90% (1077/1222) Previous case-control studies of IBD have used hospital or community derived controls. There are obvious inherent biases in both metho...

“…However, today it is recognized that IBD predispose patients to AN. Some studies suggest that IBD lowers the threshold of corticosteroids (lower doses per day and for shorter time) needed to induce AN (2,5). Also, AN may occur in patients with IBD who have not received any corticosteroid therapy (1) suggesting that other pathogenic factors must be involved, such as hypercoagulability (5) or parenteral nutrition with infused lipids (7).…”
