Abstract
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a known extraintestinal complication in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, since the prevalence of SpA is lower in Japan than in Europe, some patients may be inaccurately diagnosed and treated. Although non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) remain the mainstay treatment for IBD-related SpA, anti-tumor necrosis factor-α antibody and ustekinumab have demonstrated efficacy in patients with SpA refractory to NSAIDs. We report here a case of Crohn’s disease with SpA, as an extraintestinal manifestation, in which ustekinumab proved extremely effective, not only for alleviating the arthritis but also against skin manifestations and scleritis. Only a few studies have documented the therapeutic effects of ustekinumab against SpA associated with IBD; therefore, its efficacy remains unclear.

Systematic review with meta-analysis: association between acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and risk of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis exacerbation. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2018; 47:1428-1439. [PMID: 29620794 PMCID: PMC5992031 DOI: 10.1111/apt.14606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2017] [Revised: 11/06/2017] [Accepted: 02/18/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Unlike acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have generally been thought to be associated with increased risk of IBD exacerbation. AIM To carry out a systematic review and meta-analysis of previous studies examining the association between acetaminophen and NSAIDs including cyclooxygenase (COX-2) inhibitors use, and risk of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) exacerbation. METHODS We identified published manuscripts and abstracts through 1 March 2017 by systematic search of Medline, Embase, Cochrane and other trial registries. Quality assessment was done using Newcastle-Ottawa scale and random-effect meta-analysis using pooled relative risks (RRs) and 95% CIs were calculated. RESULTS Eighteen publications between years 1983 and 2016 were identified. For the meta-analysis, pooled RRs of disease exacerbation with NSAIDs use were (1.42, 95% CI, 0.65-3.09), I2 = 60.3% for CD, and (1.52, 95% CI, 0.87-2.63), I2 = 56.1% for UC. The corresponding values for acetaminophen use were (1.40, 95% CI, 0.96-2.04), I2 = 45.6% for UC, and (1.56, 95% CI, 1.22-1.99), I2 = 0.0% for IBD. Sensitivity analyses limited to studies with low risk of bias showed a significantly increased risk of CD exacerbation (1.53, 95% CI, 1.08-2.16) but not UC (0.94, 95% CI, 0.36-2.42) with NSAIDs use. CONCLUSIONS Contrary to generally accepted belief, we did not find a consistent association between NSAIDs use and risk of CD and UC exacerbation. There was also no consistent evidence for association with acetaminophen although further studies are needed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION More than half of the patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) experience at least one extra-intestinal manifestation (EIM). The most common EIM in patients with IBD is spondyloarthritis (SpA). Microscopic intestinal inflammation is documented in almost 50% of the patients with SpA. Areas covered: We give an overview of the classification, the epidemiology and the diagnosis of IBD and SpA. The treatment goals, the pharmacologic management options and the available treatment guidelines in IBD patients with SpA are discussed. Expert commentary: The coexistence of IBD and SpA generates challenges and opportunities for both the gastroenterologist and the rheumatologist. The potential of drugs with a gut-specific mode of action in the treatment of IBD-related arthritis warrants further exploration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis (SpA). METHODS A core group led the development of the recommendations, starting with the treatment questions. A literature review group conducted systematic literature reviews of studies that addressed 57 specific treatment questions, based on searches conducted in OVID Medline (1946-2014), PubMed (1966-2014), and the Cochrane Library. We assessed the quality of evidence using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) method. A separate voting group reviewed the evidence and voted on recommendations for each question using the GRADE framework. RESULTS In patients with active AS, the strong recommendations included use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), use of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) when activity persists despite NSAID treatment, not to use systemic glucocorticoids, use of physical therapy, and use of hip arthroplasty for patients with advanced hip arthritis. Among the conditional recommendations was that no particular TNFi was preferred except in patients with concomitant inflammatory bowel disease or recurrent iritis, in whom TNFi monoclonal antibodies should be used. In patients with active nonradiographic axial SpA despite treatment with NSAIDs, we conditionally recommend treatment with TNFi. Other recommendations for patients with nonradiographic axial SpA were based on indirect evidence and were the same as for patients with AS. CONCLUSION These recommendations provide guidance for the management of common clinical questions in AS and nonradiographic axial SpA. Additional research on optimal medication management over time, disease monitoring, and preventive care is needed to help establish best practices in these areas.

Other recommendations for patients with nonradiographic axial SpA were based on indirect evidence and were the same as for patients with AS. CONCLUSION These recommendations provide guidance for the management of common clinical questions in AS and nonradiographic axial SpA. Additional research on optimal medication management over time, disease monitoring, and preventive care is needed to help establish best practices in these areas.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often have associated conditions, for which anti-inflammatory medication with cyclo-oxygenase (COX) inhibitors may be helpful. The current evidence is conflicting regarding the role of COX-inhibitors in causing relapse in IBD. This case-control study examined the association between the use of COX inhibitors and relapse of IBD. Logistic regression was used to analyse the relationship between COX-inhibitors and IBD relapse. Overall COX inhibitor use (combined non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and selective COX-2 agents) had a negative association with relapse of IBD (adjusted OR 0.26, 95% CI 0.09–0.80). This negative association was confined to ulcerative colitis (UC) (adjusted OR = 0.06, 95% CI 0.01–0.50) and no association was found in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients (adjusted OR 1.25, 95% CI 0.18–7.46). The significant negative association between UC relapse and medication use was also seen with non-specific NSAIDs. Selective COX-2 inhibitor use was rare but non-significantly more common in stable patients. There was no association between low-dose aspirin or paracetamol use and relapse of CD or UC. We conclude that COX-inhibitor use was not associated with an increased risk of relapse in UC or CD, and may be protective in UC. Where indicated, NSAIDs should not be withheld from IBD patients.

Abstract
Geranylgeranylacetone (GGA), an isoprenoid compound, is an anti-ulcer drug developed in Japan. GGA protects a variety of cells and tissues against numerous stresses via induction of heat shock protein (HSP) 70, and it has recently been reported to protect mice from experimental ulcerative colitis (UC). However, it is unknown whether GGA exhibits a preventive effect on UC-associated neoplasia. In the present study, we evaluated the preventive effects of GGA on colitis-related carcinogenesis in the mouse colon. Mice were administered 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) subcutaneously three times within a week, followed by 2 cycles of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) (each cycle, 3% DSS for 7 days and then distilled water for 14 days) and they were sacrificed 28 days after the completion of the 2 cycles. The mice were divided into the following groups according to the diet received during the experiment: group A, which received a standard diet and served as a disease control; group B, which received a diet mixed with 0.25% GGA; group C, which received a diet mixed with 0.5% GGA; group D, which received a diet mixed with 1.0% GGA; group E, which received a diet mixed with 2.0% GGA; and group F, which received a diet containing no agents, including DSS and served as a normal control. The incidence of neoplasia was assessed. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was also determined. In addition, the expression of HSP70 in the colon tissues was determined by immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis. The mean number of tumors was 16.6, 11.0, 9.4, 5.8, 5.4 and 0 in groups A-F, respectively. GGA significantly suppressed the occurrence of neoplasia in a dose-dependent manner. GGA treatment enhanced the expression of HSP70 and suppressed the oxidative damage in the background mucosa (i.e. lesion-free colon). These results suggest that GGA could be useful in the prevention of UC-associated neoplasia.

Abstract
Apart from local inflammation and defects in secretion, central mechanisms are important for pain etiology in chronic pancreatitis. Therefore, centrally acting co-analgetic agents can be used in addition to classical pain medications. Endoscopic interventions are preferred in patients with obvious dilation of the pancreatic duct. Surgical interventions are generally more effective although they are usually reserved for patients with prior failure of conservative treatment. Diverse surgical options with different efficacies and morbidities are used in individual patients.One of the main problems in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases is abdominal pain. Primarily the underlying disease needs to be adequately treated. Symptomatic pain management will most likely include treatment with acetaminophen and tramadol as well as occasionally principles of a multimodal pain regimen. For the treatment of arthralgia as well as enteropathy-associated arthritis the same treatment options are available as for other spondyloarthritic disorders.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritides (SpA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are chronic, idiopathic inflammatory disorders of the axial and peripheral joints and the intestinal tract, respectively, affecting up to 1 % of the population. There is clinical and genetic evidence supporting some degree of overlap between the pathogenesis of these two entities. Nevertheless, their treatment is at times conflicting. NSAIDs, although useful in SpA, are considered to be possible risk factors for flares in IBD. Moreover, etanercept, a soluble TNF receptor blocker used in SpA, is ineffective in IBD. As patients with SpA often develop microscopic gut inflammation, it is important to understand the impact on disease progression or even therapeutic response. Further research is mandatory in this regard.

Role of selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors in exacerbation of inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. CURRENT THERAPEUTIC RESEARCH 2014; 69:181-91.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the general population, selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors have been associated with fewer gastrointestinal adverse effects (AEs) than NSAIDs, but whether they are associated with exacerbations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains controversial. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to review published and unpublished findings to determine whether the use of COX-2 inhibitors increased the risk for IBD exacerbations relative to placebo in the treatment of IBD. METHODS A systematic search of MEDLINE (1966-July 2007), EMBASE (1980-July 2007), the Cochrane Library (2007 Issue 4), US Food and Drug Administration records, and data on file at Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, Pfizer US Pharmaceutical Group, and Merck & Co., Inc., using the search terms celecoxib, rofecoxib, valdecoxib, etoricoxib, lumiracoxib, cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and inflammatory bowel disease, was performed to identify randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 5 COX-2 inhibitors in patients with IBD. The publications were fully reviewed for quality. Data on trial design, patient characteristics, intervention drugs, dosages, and outcomes were collected using a predetermined data-extraction form. A meta-analysis was performed based on the publications that met the inclusion/exclusion criteria. RESULTS Of 588 studies identified in the electronic search, 574 were excluded after screening the titles and abstracts. Fourteen related to the use of COX-2 inhibitors in patients with IBD were reviewed. Two randomized, controlled trials comparing COX-2 inhibitors with placebo were identified. In the first trial, 82 patients were randomized to receive etoricoxib (60-120 mg/d) and 77 to receive placebo. The exacerbation rates were 10.5% (8/76) in the active-treatment group and 11.4% (8/70) in the placebo group (relative risk [RR], 0.92; 95% CI, 0.37-2.32). In the second trial, 112 patients were treated with celecoxib (200 mg BID) and 110 received placebo. The exacerbation rates were 3.7% (4/107) in the celecoxib group and 2.7% (3/110) in the placebo group (RR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.17-3.18). Of these patients, 5 were lost to follow-up because of AEs. In the meta-analysis comparing COX-2 inhibitors and placebo, the RR was 0.86 (95% CI, 0.39-1.88). No statistically significant differences in IBD relapse rates were found between COX-2 inhibitors and placebo. CONCLUSIONS The results from this meta-analysis suggest that insufficient data were available to determine the impact of COX-2 inhibitors on IBD exacerbations. The relatively smaller risk for AEs makes the short-term use of COX-2 inhibitors potentially attractive, but the long-term benefits remain unclear. Further studies with sound methodology and large sample sizes are needed to evaluate the tolerability of COX-2 inhibitors in the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aetiology of Crohn's disease (CD) has been related to nucleotide-binding oligomerisation domain containing 2 (NOD2) and ATG16L1 gene variants. The observation of bacterial DNA translocation in patients with CD led us to hypothesise that this process may be facilitated in patients with NOD2/ATG16L1-variant genotypes, affecting the efficacy of anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapies. DESIGN 179 patients with Crohn's disease were included. CD-related NOD2 and ATG16L1 variants were genotyped. Phagocytic and bactericidal activities were evaluated in blood neutrophils. Bacterial DNA, TNFα, IFNγ, IL-12p40, free serum infliximab/adalimumab levels and antidrug antibodies were measured. RESULTS Bacterial DNA was found in 44% of patients with active disease versus 23% of patients with remitting disease (p=0.01). A NOD2-variant or ATG16L1-variant genotype was associated with bacterial DNA presence (OR 4.8; 95% CI 1.1 to 13.2; p=0.001; and OR 2.4; 95% CI 1.4 to 4.7; p=0.01, respectively). This OR was 12.6 (95% CI 4.2 to 37.8; p=0.001) for patients with a double-variant genotype. Bacterial DNA was associated with disease activity (OR 2.6; 95% CI 1.3 to 5.4; p=0.005). Single and double-gene variants were not associated with disease activity (p=0.19). Patients with a NOD2-variant genotype showed decreased phagocytic and bactericidal activities in blood neutrophils, increased TNFα levels in response to bacterial DNA and decreased trough levels of free anti-TNFα. The proportion of patients on an intensified biological therapy was significantly higher in the NOD2-variant groups. CONCLUSIONS Our results characterise a subgroup of patients with CD who may require a more aggressive therapy to reduce the extent of inflammation and the risk of relapse.

Abstract
This article outlines key recommendations for the appropriate prescription of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to patients with different musculoskeletal problems. These recommendations are based on current scientific evidence, and takes into consideration gastrointestinal and cardiovascular safety issues. The recommendations have been agreed on by experts from three scientific societies (Spanish Society of Rheumatology [SER], Spanish Association of Gastroenterology [AEG] and Spanish Society of Cardiology [SEC]), following a two-round Delphi methodology. Areas that have been taken into account encompass: efficiency, cardiovascular risk, gastrointestinal risk, liver risk, renal risk, inflammatory bowel disease, anemia, post-operative pain, and prevention strategies. We propose a patient management algorithm that summarizes the main aspects of the recommendations.

Abstract
Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory disease of diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. After proper diagnosis, treatment decisions must be made on precise clinical judgment. During the course of the disease there are variable clinical features, so each case must be managed individually. Physicians who care for patients with Crohn's disease should be prepared for treatment options in different states of the disease and possible complications of both the disease and medications. This paper will focus on the management of Crohn's disease. We aim to discuss current treatment options in different presentations of the disease and to provide algorithmic management strategy.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), but the mechanisms involved in colitis-to-cancer transition (CCT) are not well understood. CCT may involve a inflammation-dysplasia-carcinoma progression sequence compared with the better characterized adenoma-carcinoma progression sequence associated with sporadic CRC. One common thread may be activating mutations in components of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which occur commonly as early events in sporadic CRC. To examine this hypothesis, we evaluated possible associations between Wnt/β-catenin signaling and CCT based on the cancer stem cell (CSC) model. Wnt/β-catenin immunostaining indicated that UC patients have a level of Wnt-pathway-active cells that is intermediate between normal colon and CRC. These UC cells exhibiting activation of the Wnt pathway constituted a major subpopulation (52% + 7.21) of the colonic epithelial cells positive for aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), a putative marker of precursor colon CSC (pCCSC). We further fractionated this subpopulation of pCCSC using a Wnt pathway reporter assay. Over successive passages, pCCSCs with the highest Wnt activity exhibited higher clonogenic and tumorigenic potential than pCCSCs with the lowest Wnt activity, thereby establishing the key role of Wnt activity in driving CSC-like properties in these cells. Notably, 5/20 single cell injections of high-Wnt pCCSC resulted in tumor formation, suggesting a correlation with CCT. Attenuation of Wnt/β-catenin in high-Wnt pCCSC by shRNA-mediated downregulation or pharmacological inhibition significantly reduced tumor growth rates. Overall, the results of our study indicates (i) that early activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is critical for CCT and (ii) that high levels of Wnt/β-catenin signaling can further demarcate high-ALDH tumor-initiating cells in the nondysplastic epithelium of UC patients. As such, our findings offer plausible diagnostic markers and therapeutic target in the Wnt signaling pathway for early intervention in CCT.

Abstract
Joint inflammation is present in approximately 30% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Peripheral arthritis can frequently be controlled by an optimal treatment of the gut inflammation in association with short-term use of NSAIDs. Recurrent inflammation requires the use of sulfasalazine. More therapy-resistant forms and axial arthropathy can be treated with anti-TNF drugs, predominantly infliximab and adalimumab. An intensified multidisciplinary approach in research and in the clinic may help to unravel the question of why common etiopathogenic mechanisms ultimately lead to different disease phenotypes. Animal models may help to identify the most promising therapeutic strategies including in the near future modulation of adhesion molecules, costimulatory molecules and the Th17 pathway.

Abstract
Aspirin was commercialized more than a 100 years ago. Today, this compound is still widely prescribed, and new mechanisms of action and indications are being tested. Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 by aspirin or its related compounds, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), has been associated with both adverse and beneficial effects in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Inhibition of COX-1 has been linked to GI adverse effects. Adverse effects of NSAIDs and aspirin in the upper GI tract include esophagitis, peptic ulcer, peptic ulcer complications, and death. Effective preventive therapies are available that have been associated with a progressive decline in the rate of hospitalization due to upper GI complications. NSAIDs and aspirin can also damage the small bowel and the colon. NSAID enteropathy is frequent and in most cases subclinical (increased mucosal permeability, inflammation, erosion, ulcer). However, more serious clinical outcomes such as anemia, bleeding, perforation, obstruction, diverticulitis, and deaths have also been described. Prevention therapy of NSAID damage to the lower GI tract is not well defined. Inhibition of COX-2 by NSAIDs, coxibs, or aspirin seems to provide beneficial effects to the GI tract. Observational studies show that these compounds reduce the risk of both upper and lower GI cancers. Randomized controlled trials have shown that aspirin and coxibs reduce the recurrence rate of colonic polyps, and long-term cohort studies have shown that aspirin reduces the risk of colon cancer time and dose dependently. New studies will have to define the appropriate population that may benefit with these therapies.

Abstract
In addition to the upper GI tract, NSAIDs can damage the small bowel and the colon. NSAID enteropathy is frequent and may be present in more than 60% of patients taking these drugs long term. In most cases, damage is subclinical, including increased mucosal permeability, inflammation, erosions, ulceration, but other more serious clinical outcomes such as anemia, and overall bleeding, perforation, obstruction, diverticulitis and deaths have also been described. The magnitude of these serious outcomes from the lower GI tract is not well defined, but recent data suggest that they may be as frequent and severe as upper GI complications. Contrary to what happens in the upper GI tract, treatment and prevention of NSAID enteropathy is difficult, since the pathogenic mechanisms are different and not well understood. Among other options, misoprostol, antibiotics, and sulphasalazine have been proved to be effective in animal models, but they have not been properly tested in humans. Selective COX-2 inhibition is emerging as a potential alternative to tNSAIDs in the prevention of damage in the lower GI tract in rheumatologic patients. Preliminary studies in healthy volunteers have shown that these drugs are associated with no or less small bowel damage than tNSAIDs plus PPI, although their long-term effects in patients need to be properly tested. Post hoc analysis of previous outcome studies focused on complications of upper GI tract or cardiovascular events have shown contradictory results. Data from one ongoing trial comparing celecoxib versus diclofenac plus PPI and examining serious outcomes from the whole GI tract will probably provide new insights in this area.

Abstract
Guidelines for clinical practice are intended to suggest preferable approaches to particular medical problems as established by interpretation and collation of scientifically valid research, derived from extensive review of published literature. When data that will withstand objective scrutiny are not available, a recommendation may be made based on a consensus of experts. Guidelines are intended to apply to the clinical situation for all physicians without regard to specialty. Guidelines are intended to be flexible, not necessarily indicating the only acceptable approach, and should be distinguished from standards of care that are inflexible and rarely violated. Given the wide range of choices in any health-care problem, the physician should select the course best suited to the individual patient and the clinical situation presented. These guidelines are developed under the auspices of the American College of Gastroenterology and its Practice Parameters Committee. Expert opinion is solicited from the outset for the document. The quality of evidence upon which a specific recommendation is based is as follows: Grade A: Homogeneous evidence from multiple well-designed randomized (therapeutic) or cohort (descriptive) controlled trials, each involving a number of participants to be of sufficient statistical power. Grade B: Evidence from at least one large well-designed clinical trial with or without randomization, from cohort or case-control analytic studies, or well-designed meta-analysis. Grade C: Evidence based on clinical experience, descriptive studies, or reports of expert committees. The Committee reviews guidelines in depth, with participation from experienced clinicians and others in related fields. The final recommendations are based on the data available at the time of the production of the document and may be updated with pertinent scientific developments at a later time.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used, and a growing body of evidence suggests that they have adverse effects in the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract in addition to the well-described toxicity in the upper GI tract. Among NSAID users who develop adverse GI effects, the proportion with lower GI events is as high as 40%. Most of the available evidence is taken from case-control studies and case reports; no large, randomized, placebo-controlled study has specifically set out to determine the magnitude of NSAID toxicity on the colon. However, the data suggest that NSAIDs cause a primary macroscopic colitis, collagenous colitis, an increased risk of complicated diverticular disease, and exacerbations of preexisting inflammatory bowel disease. Treatment depends on withdrawal of the causative drug.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) exhibit an increased risk for the development of cancer of the colon and rectum. Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors are known to suppress sporadic colorectal cancer, but it is unknown whether selective COX-2 inhibitors exhibit a preventive effect in UC-associated neoplasia. This study investigated the preventive effect of nimesulide, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, on colorectal carcinogenesis in an experimental model of murine UC. METHODS Chronic colitis was induced in mice by administration of four cycles of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) (each cycle: 5% DSS for 7 days and then distilled water for 14 days). The mice were killed 120 days after the completion of the fourth cycle. The mice were divided into the following five groups: group A served as a disease control; group B received a diet mixed with 400 p.p.m. of nimesulide during the whole period; group C received nimesulide during the four cycles of DSS administration (active phase); group D received nimesulide for 120 days from the end of the fourth cycle (remission phase); group E received no agents including DSS and served as a normal control. RESULTS The incidence of dysplasia and/or cancer was 28%, 15%, 11.8%, 6.7% and 0% in groups A-E, respectively. In group D, nimesulide significantly suppressed the occurrence of dysplasia and/or cancer (P < 0.05). Strong COX-2 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry in cancer and dysplastic lesions while diffusely weak COX-2 expression was also found in the residual colon (i.e. lesion-free colon). The mucosal concentration of prostaglandin E(2) was significantly lower in groups B and D than in group A. CONCLUSIONS The administration of the selective COX-2 inhibitor nimesulide (especially during the remission phase) exerts a suppressive effect on the development of dysplasia and/or cancer in a murine model of DSS-induced colitis. These findings may have relevance to long-standing UC in humans.

Abstract
The existence of a possible link between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been repeatedly suggested. Recently, a few studies have addressed the issue of a possible, similar effect by selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors (COXIBs). The present article reviews the available scientific evidence for this controversial subject.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease remains largely unknown. AIM We performed a comprehensive assessment of potential risk factors associated with the occurrence of inflammatory bowel disease. METHODS We identified a cohort of patients 20-84 years old between 1995 and 1997 registered in the General Practitioner Research Database in the UK. A total of 444 incident cases of IBD were ascertained and validated with the general practitioner. We performed a nested case-control analysis using all cases and a random sample of 10 000 frequency-matched controls. RESULTS Incidence rates for ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and indeterminate colitis were 11, 8, and 2 cases per 100 000 person-years, respectively. Among women, we found that long-term users of oral contraceptives were at increased risk of developing UC (OR: 2.35; 95% CI: 0.89-6.22) and CD (OR: 3.15; 95% CI: 1.24-7.99). Similarly, long-term users of HRT had an increased risk of CD (OR: 2.60; 95% CI: 1.04-6.49) but not UC. Current smokers experienced a reduced risk of UC along with an increased risk of CD. Prior appendectomy was associated with a decreased the risk of UC (OR: 0.37; 95% CI: 0.14-1.00). CONCLUSIONS Our results support the hypothesis of an increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease associated with oral contraceptives use and suggest a similar effect of hormone replacement therapy on CD. We also confirmed the effects of smoking and appendectomy on inflammatory bowel disease.
