Abstract
Although obesity and non-communicable disease (NCD) prevention efforts to-date have focused mainly on individual level factors, the social and physical environments in which people live are now widely recognized as important social determinants of health. Obesogenic environments promote higher dietary energy intakes and sedentary behaviors, thus contributing to the obesity/NCD burden. To develop quality indicators (QIs) for measuring food and physical activity (PA)-built environments in municipalities. A literature review was conducted. Based on the best practices identified from this review, a draft set of candidate QI was retrieved. The initial 67 QIs were then evaluated by a modified Delphi panel of multidisciplinary health professionals (n = 40) to determine their relevance, validity, and feasibility in 3 rounds of voting and threaded discussion using a modified RAND/University of California, Los Angeles Appropriateness Methodology. Response rate for the panel was 89.4%. All final 42 QIs were rated as highly relevant, valid, and feasible (median rating ≥ 7 on a 1-9 scale), with no significant disagreement. The final QI set addresses for the PA domain: (i) promotion of PA; and (ii) improvements in the environment to strengthen the practice of PA; and for Food environment domain: (i) promotion of healthy eating; (ii) access to healthy foods; and (iii) promotion of responsible advertising. We generated a set of indicators to evaluate the PA and food built environment, which can be adapted for use in Latin American and other low- and middle-income countries.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown the influence of the physical and social environments on the development of obesity and non-communicable diseases (NCD). An obesogenic environment promotes higher dietary energy intakes and sedentary behaviors while limiting opportunities or incentives for active living. This paper presents a dataset with key attributes of the food and physical activity built environment, including green spaces, quality of streets and sidewalks, and different types of food retail outlets in four cities of the Southern Cone of Latin America. A total of 139 representative neighborhoods randomly selected from: Marcos Paz and Bariloche (Argentina), Temuco (Chile) and Canelones-Barros Blancos (Uruguay) were evaluated, where standardized community walks were conducted for direct observation of the built environment. This dataset will contribute valuable data to the evaluation of obesogenic environments in the region, and could be linked to additional ecological information about risk factors for NCDs and socio-economic features from other sources. Understanding environmental influences on cardiovascular risk factors and individual habits may help explain NCD outcomes and plan urban policies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To evaluate the clinical outcomes in patients with IBD after switching from Remicade® to CT-P13 in comparison with patients who maintain Remicade®. METHODS Patients under Remicade® who were in clinical remission with standard dosage at study entry were included. The 'switch cohort' [SC] comprised patients who made the switch from Remicade® to CT-P13, and the 'non-switch' cohort [NC] patients remained under Remicade®. RESULTS A total of 476 patients were included: 199 [42%] in the SC and 277 [58%] in the NC. The median follow-up was 18 months in the SC and 23 months in the NC [p < 0.01]. Twenty-four out of 277 patients relapsed in the NC; the incidence of relapse was 5% per patient-year. The cumulative incidence of relapse was 2% at 6 months and 10% at 24 months in this group. Thirty-eight out of 199 patients relapsed in the SC; the incidence rate of relapse was 14% per patient-year. The cumulative incidence of relapse was 5% at 6 months and 28% at 24 months. In the multivariate analysis, the switch to CT-P13 was associated with a higher risk of relapse (HR = 3.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2-6). Thirteen percent of patients had adverse events in the NC, compared with 6% in the SC [p < 0.05]. CONCLUSIONS Switching from Remicade® to CT-P13 might be associated with a higher risk of clinical relapse, although this fact was not supported in our study by an increase in objective markers of inflammation. The nocebo effect might have influenced this result. Switching from Remicade® to CT-P13 was safe.

Abstract
Abstract
Current guidelines recommend sacubitril/valsartan (S/V) for patients (p.) with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) but there is lack of evidence of its efficacy and safety in p. with cancer and heart failure. Our aim was to analyze the potential benefit of S/V in specific cardio-oncology clinics.
Methods
We performed a retrospective multicenter registry (HF-COH) in six Spanish hospitals with cardio-oncology clinics including all p. treated with S/V. Clinical and echocardiographic data, NYHA functional class, type of neoplasms and anti-tumoral treatment were described. Median follow-up was 7.2 [7.9] months.
Results
Sixty-one p. were included (median age was 64 [21] years old; 64%women, 43% hypertensive, 54% dyslipidemics and 28% diabetics). Most of p. (97%) had cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRD) with a median time from anti-cancer therapy to CTRD of 40 [132] months. Breast (46%) and hematological (38%) cancers were the most frequent neoplasms, 31% of p. had metastatic disease and 71% had been treated with anthracyclines. In 5% S/V was initiated at CTRCD diagnosis while in 95% S/V was started to improve clinical status in p. already treated with ACE inhibitors or ARBs. 87% were on beta-blocker therapy and 74% on mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists.Maximal S/V titration dose was achieved in 8.2% of p. (24/26mg: 43%; 49/51mg: 33%) S/V was discontinued in 4 p. (reasons: 2 hypotension; 1: renal failure; 1: pruritus)
Baseline NT-proBNP levels, functional class, and LVEF improved at the end of follow-up in p. who continued with S/V (all p values ≤0.01). No statistical differences were found in creatinine clearance or potassium serum levels. Table
Patient parameters before and after S/V Before S/V After S/V P value LVEF (%) 33 [7] 39.5 [15] <0.001 Creatinine (mg/dl) 0.9 [0.4] 0.9 [0.5] 0.15 Creatinine clearance (ml/min) 73 [30] 75 [37] 0.22 Potassium serum levels (mg/dl) 4.5 [0.5] 4.5 [0.6] 0.42 Systolic arterial pressure (mmHg) 116 [23] 112 [27] 0.025 Diastolic arterial pressure (mmHg) 70 [13] 68 [10] 0.498 NT-proBNP (pg/ml) 1831 [3132] 842 [1919] 0.007 NYHA 2.2±0.6 1.6±0.62 <0.001 Values are median [interquartile range] or mean ± standard derivation; S/V: sacubitril-valsartan; LVEF: left ventricle ejection fraction.
Conclusions
Our experience suggests that S/V is well tolerated and improves functional class and left ventricular function parameters in patients with CTRCD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of fatigue in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], to identify the factors associated with fatigue and its severity, to assess the impact of fatigue on quality of life [QoL], and to evaluate the relationship between fatigue and sleep disorders. METHODS This was a prospective multicentre study conducted at 22 Spanish centres. Consecutive patients followed at IBD Units were included. Fatigue was evaluated with the Fatigue Severity Scale [FSS] and the Fatigue Impact Scale [FIS]. Quality of life and sleep quality were assessed using the IBD Questionnaire-Short Form [IBDQ-9] and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI], respectively. RESULTS A total of 544 consecutive adult IBD patients were included [50% women, mean age 44 years, 61% Crohn's disease]. The prevalence of fatigue was 41% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 37-45%). The variables associated with an increased risk of fatigue were: anxiety [OR = 2.5, 95% CI = 1.6-3.7], depression [OR = 2.4, 95% CI = 1.4-3.8], presence of extraintestinal manifestations [EIMs] [OR = 1.7, 95% CI = 1.1-2.6], and treatment with systemic steroids [OR = 2.8, 95% CI = 1.4-5.7]. The presence of EIMs [regression coefficient, RC = 8.2, 95% CI = 2.3-14.2], anxiety [RC = 25.8, 95% CI = 20.0-31.5], depression [RC = 30.6, 95% CI = 24.3-37.0], and sleep disturbances [RC = 15.0, 95% CI = 9.3-20.8] were associated with severity of fatigue. Patients with fatigue had a significantly decreased IBDQ-9 score [p < 0.001]. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of fatigue in IBD patients is remarkably high and has a negative impact on QoL. Therapy with systemic steroids is associated with an increased risk of fatigue. The severity of fatigue is associated with anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, and the presence of EIMs. Fatigue was not associated with anaemia, disease activity or anti-TNF therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent cluster randomized trial evaluating a multicomponent intervention showed significant reductions in blood pressure in low-income hypertensive subjects in Argentina. OBJECTIVES To assess the cost-effectiveness of this intervention. METHODS A total of 1432 hypertensive participants were recruited from 18 primary health care centers. The intervention included home visits led by community health workers, physician education, and text messaging. Resource use and quality of life data using the three-level EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire were prospectively collected. The study perspective was that of the public health care system, and the time horizon was 18 months. Intention-to-treat analysis was used to analyze cost and health outcomes (systolic blood pressure [SBP] change and quality-adjusted life-years [QALYs]). A 1 time gross domestic product per capita per QALY was used as the cost-effectiveness threshold (US $14,062). RESULTS Baseline characteristics were similar in the two arms. QALYs significantly increased by 0.06 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.04-0.09) in the intervention group, and SBP net difference favored the intervention group: 5.3 mm Hg (95% CI 0.27-10.34). Mean total costs per participant were higher in the intervention arm: US $304 in the intervention group and US $154 in the control group (adjusted difference of US $140.18; 95% CI US $75.41-US $204.94). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was $3299 per QALY (95% credible interval 1635-6099) and US $26 per mm Hg of SBP (95% credible interval 13-46). Subgroup analysis showed that the intervention was cost-effective in all prespecified subgroups (age, sex, cardiovascular risk, and body mass index). CONCLUSIONS The multicomponent intervention was cost-effective for blood pressure control among low-income hypertensive patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The gastrointestinal tract harbors the largest microbiota load in the human body, hence maintaining a delicate balance between immunity against invading pathogens and tolerance toward commensal. Such immune equilibrium, or intestinal homeostasis, is conducted by a tight regulation and cooperation of the different branches of the immune system, including the innate and the adaptive immune system. However, several factors affect this delicate equilibrium, ultimately leading to gastrointestinal disorders including inflammatory bowel disease. Therefore, here we decided to review the currently available information about innate immunity lymphocyte subsets playing a role in intestinal inflammation. RESULTS Intestinal innate lymphocytes are composed of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) and lamina propria innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). While IELs can be divided into natural or induced, ILCs can be classified into type 1, 2, or 3, resembling, respectively, the properties of TH1, TH2, or TH17 adaptive lymphocytes. Noteworthy, the phenotype and function of both IELs and ILCs are disrupted under inflammatory conditions, where they help to exacerbate intestinal immune responses. CONCLUSIONS The modulation of both IELs and ILCs to control intestinal inflammatory responses represents a major challenge, as they provide tight regulation among the epithelium, the microbiota, and the adaptive immune system. An improved understanding of the innate immunity mechanisms involved in gastrointestinal inflammation would therefore aid in the diagnosis and further treatment of gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The long-term safety of exposure to anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNFα) drugs during pregnancy has received little attention. We aimed to compare the relative risk of severe infections in children of mothers with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who were exposed to anti-TNFα drugs in utero with that of children who were not exposed to the drugs. METHODS Retrospective multicenter cohort study. Exposed cohort: children from mothers with IBD receiving anti-TNFα medication (with or without thiopurines) at any time during pregnancy or during the 3 months before conception. Non-exposed cohort: children from mothers with IBD not treated with anti-TNFα agents or thiopurines at any time during pregnancy or the 3 months before conception. The cumulative incidence of severe infections after birth was estimated using Kaplan-Meier curves, which were compared using the log-rank test. Cox-regression analysis was performed to identify potential predictive factors for severe infections in the offspring. RESULTS The study population comprised 841 children, of whom 388 (46%) had been exposed to anti-TNFα agents. Median follow-up after delivery was 47 months in the exposed group and 68 months in the non-exposed group. Both univariate and multivariate analysis showed the incidence rate of severe infections to be similar in non-exposed and exposed children (1.6% vs. 2.8% per person-year, hazard ratio 1.2 (95% confidence interval 0.8-1.8)). In the multivariate analysis, preterm delivery was the only variable associated with a higher risk of severe infection (2.5% (1.5-4.3)). CONCLUSIONS In utero exposure to anti-TNFα drugs does not seem to be associated with increased short-term or long-term risk of severe infections in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Despite having adopted preventive measures, tuberculosis (TB) may still occur in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF). Data on the causes and characteristics of TB cases in this scenario are lacking. Our aim was to describe the characteristics of TB in anti-TNF-treated IBD patients after the publication of the Spanish TB prevention guidelines in IBD patients and to evaluate the safety of restarting anti-TNF after a TB diagnosis. METHODS In this multicentre, retrospective, descriptive study, TB cases from Spanish hospitals were collected. Continuous variables were reported as mean and standard deviation or median and interquartile range. Categorical variables were described as absolute and relative frequencies and their confidence intervals when necessary. RESULTS We collected 50 TB cases in anti-TNF-treated IBD patients, 60% male, median age 37.3 years (interquartile range [IQR] 30.4-47). Median latency between anti-TNF initiation and first TB symptoms was 155.5 days (IQR 88-301); 34% of TB cases were disseminated and 26% extrapulmonary. In 30 patients (60%), TB cases developed despite compliance with recommended preventive measures; *not performing 2-step TST (tuberculin skin test) was the main failure in compliance with recommendations. In 17 patients (34%) anti-TNF was restarted after a median of 13 months (IQR 7.1-17.3) and there were no cases of TB reactivation. CONCLUSIONS Tuberculosis could still occur in anti-TNF-treated IBD patients despite compliance with recommended preventive measures. A significant number of cases developed when these recommendations were not followed. Restarting anti-TNF treatment in these patients seems to be safe.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The availability of a quantitative method to measure anti-infliximab (IFX) antibodies (ATI) would facilitate the implementation of therapeutic drug monitoring in clinical decision-making. Our aim was to standardize the homogeneous mobility shift assay (HMSA) used in the measure of ATI levels. METHODS In this prospective longitudinal multicenter study, 50 IFX-treated Crohn's disease (CD) patients were followed up for 54weeks. During this period 360 human serum samples were analysed. Monomeric ATI levels were measured by a quantitative HMSA-method using an anti-IFX calibrator. IFX trough levels measured by ELISA were correlated with ATI levels. RESULTS Using HMSA and a pure anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody specific for IFX (anti-IFX calibrator), we measured the levels of monomeric ATI generated in Crohn's disease patients treated with IFX. Anti-IFX calibrator allowed to quantify monomeric antibodies against IFX with a low limit of quantification (3nM). The threshold level of ATI in order to classify the immunogenicity of the patients was 10nM. We observed that 24% (12/50) of IFX-treated patients developed ATI (>10nM) during the observation period (54weeks). Serum concentration of ATI higher than 10nM dramatically increased the probability (OR=51.1; 95% CI: 20.4-128.0; p<0.0001) of presenting low levels of IFX (⩽1.5nM) in serum, as observed in some CD patients treated with standard doses of the drug. CONCLUSIONS The HMSA-method described here allows an accurate quantification of ATI concentration in international units (IU) and therefore it could be useful in the study of the relationship between ATI concentration, infliximab level and the clinical response to the drug.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To evaluate the incidence rate of relapse in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) undergoing chondroitin sulphate (CS) treatment and its effect on the concentrations of several pro-inflammatory proteins. METHODS Prospective, observational, 12-month follow-up study in patients with IBD in remission, starting CS (Condrosan®, Bioiberica S.A.) treatment for osteoarthritis (OA). Crohn's Disease Activity Index and modified Truelove-Witts severity index were calculated for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (UC) respectively. Levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFA), -C, fibroblast growth factor 2, hepatocyte growth factor, angiopoietin (Ang)-1, Ang-2, transforming growth factor beta, tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-12, IL-17, IL-23, intracellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular adhesion molecule-1, matrix metalloproteinase-3 and PGE2 were quantified by ELISA. OA joint pain was evaluated using a visual analogue scale. RESULTS A total of 37 patients (19 UC and 18 Crohn's disease) were included. The mean values for OA joint pain decreased after 12 months from 5.9 ± 2.8 to 3.0 ± 2.3 (p < 0.05). Only 1 patient (with UC) flared during follow-up. The incidence rate of relapse was 3.4% per patient-year of follow-up. Mean serum VEGFA levels increased between baseline (492 pg/ml) and 12-month treatment (799 pg/ml; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The incidence of IBD relapse in patients under CS treatment was lower than that generally reported. This treatment might modulate VEGFA. CS decreases OA-related pain in patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The discontinuation of anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) treatment in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients in remission could be considered. AIM To evaluate the factors associated with relapse of IBD after discontinuation of anti-TNF therapy. METHODS Electronic (PubMed/Embase) and manual search up to January 2015. RESULTS The overall risk of relapse after discontinuation of anti-TNFs (27 studies) was 44% for Crohn's disease (CD; follow-up range: 6-125 months) and 38% for ulcerative colitis (follow-up range: 6-24 months). Several factors were investigated to identify patients who are more likely to achieve long-lasting remission after anti-TNF discontinuation. The factors associated with a higher risk of relapse are younger age, smoking, longer disease duration, and fistulising perianal CD. Laboratory markers such as low haemoglobin levels, high C-reactive protein levels and high faecal calprotectin seem to increase the risk of relapse. On the other hand, low serum anti-TNF levels seem to be associated with a lower risk of flare-up. Mucosal healing seems to decrease the risk of relapse after anti-TNF discontinuation (overall, this risk is 26% at 1 year with mucosal healing and 42% without), although this observation has not been confirmed by some authors. In patients receiving escalated anti-TNF doses or receiving anti-TNFs for the prevention of post-operative CD recurrence, the risk of relapse after discontinuation is high (>75%). Re-administration of the drug in those who relapsed after stopping treatment is effective and safe. CONCLUSIONS A high proportion of patients with IBD relapse after discontinuation of anti-TNF treatment. As available data are insufficient to make strong recommendations on when anti-TNF therapy could be stopped, decisions should be taken on an individual basis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One-third of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) receiving anti-TNFs do not respond to treatment, and a relevant proportion experience loss of response or intolerance. AIM To investigate the efficacy and safety of a second anti-TNF agent after primary/secondary failure or intolerance to a first drug. INCLUSION CRITERIA studies evaluating the efficacy of infliximab (IFX), adalimumab (ADA) and certolizumab-pegol (CZP) as the second anti-TNF in CD or UC. SEARCH STRATEGY Bibliographical searches (PubMed/Embase). DATA SYNTHESIS percentage of response/remission; the meta-analysis was performed using the inverse variance method. RESULTS We included 46 studies (37 CD, 8 UC, 1 pouchitis). The CD studies comprised 32 switching IFX→ADA, 4 IFX→CZP and 1 ADA→IFX. Overall, the second anti-TNF after the failure of IFX in CD induced remission in 43% and response in 63% of patients. The remission rate was higher when the reason to withdraw the first anti-TNF was intolerance (61%) than after secondary (45%) or primary failure (30%); response rates were, respectively, 72%, 62% and 53%. All UC studies switched IFX→ADA, six of them reporting remission rates ranging from 0% to 50%. Adverse events rate ranged from 0% to 81% in CD, most of them mild (serious adverse event 0-21%, discontinuation rate <20%). CONCLUSIONS The efficacy of a second anti-TNF in CD patients largely depends on the cause for switching. The remission rate is higher when the reason to withdraw the first anti-TNF is intolerance (61%), compared with secondary (45%) or primary failure (30%). Further studies of switch ADA→IFX are needed to evaluate this strategy. PROSPERO-registry-number: CRD42014012943.

Abstract
AIMS Assess IBD patients starting anti-TNF for the impact of preventive measures in HBV and/or HCV, and the predictive response factors to HBV vaccination. METHODS Multicenter prospective study including 389 IBD patients. Four interventions were established: I-1) anti-HBs <100IU/L: HBV vaccination with double doses at 0-1-2months, and revaccination if titres <100IU/L (seroprotection defined as anti-HBs10-100IU/L and effective vaccination anti-HBs >100IU/L); I-2) anti-HBs >100IU/L (previous effective vaccination): monitoring levels; I-3) anti-HBc and/or HCV+: analysis every two months; I-4) HBsAg+: start anti-virals. RESULTS I-1 and I-2) For first vaccination, effective vaccination and seroprotection were obtained in 26.4% and 43.5%, and for revaccination 31.3% and 44.4%, respectively. Predictive factors of effective vaccination were age ≤30years (OR=2.2) and being vaccinated simultaneously with anti-TNF (OR=5.2) instead of late vaccination, whereas age ≤30years (OR=2.6) and anti-TNF monotherapy (OR=2.4) were predictive for seroprotection. 80.8% of patients previously vaccinated maintained titres at 29months follow-up. The only factor related to maintaining titres was previous vaccination versus achieving effective vaccination during anti-TNF (HR=2.49); I-3 and I-4) HBV-DNA + without reactivation was detected in 7% of 29 anti-HBc. No reactivation was found in the remaining HCV (n=5) or HBsAg (n=4) patients. CONCLUSIONS 1) Response to vaccination/revaccination is low in patients with anti-TNF. Young patients vaccinated at the beginning of anti-TNF and receiving it as a monotheraphy showed better response. 2) Long-lasting effective vaccination is greatest in patients previously vaccinated. 3) Following-up the established surveillance and/or preventive anti-viral therapy seems to be safe in HBV and HCV patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) have an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the magnitude of this effect is open to debate. AIM To assess the risk of CRC in UC patients by systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed up to November 2013. We selected studies describing the incidence and prevalence of CRC in patients with UC. Articles were assessed for quality using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Cumulative incidence and incidence rates of CRC were combined and analysed using the generic inverse variance method. Sub-analyses were performed to identify factors associated with an increased risk of developing CRC. RESULTS A total of 81 studies (181 923 patients) met the inclusion criteria. The incidence rate of CRC in patients with UC was 1.58 per 1000 patient-years (py) [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.39–1.76]. Results were heterogeneous (I2 = 81–89%). The incidence rate was 4.02/1000 py (95%CI = 2.74–5.31) in studies that only included patients with extensive colitis, and 1.24/1000 py (95%CI = 1.01–1.47) in population-based studies. The incidence rate was 0.91/1000 py (95%CI = 0.61–1.2) in the first decade of disease, 4.07/1000 py (95%CI = 2.58–5.56) in the second, and 4.55/1000 py (95%CI = 2.64–6.46) in the third. The incidence rate decreased from 4.29/1000 py in the studies published in the 1950s to 1.21/1000 py in studies published in the last decade. CONCLUSIONS The risk of patients with ulcerative colitis developing colorectal cancer has decreased steadily over the last six decades, but the extent and duration of the disease increase this risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elderly patients represent an increasing proportion of the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) population. AIM To critically review available data regarding the care of elderly IBD patients. METHODS Bibliographic searches (MEDLINE) up to June 2013. RESULTS Approximately 10-15% of cases of IBD are diagnosed in patients aged >60 years, and 10-30% of the IBD population are aged >60 years. In the elderly, IBD is easily confused with other more common diseases, mainly diverticular disease and ischaemic colitis. The clinical features of IBD in older patients are generally similar to those in younger patients. Crohn's disease (CD) in elderly patients is characterised by its predominantly colonic localisation and uncomplicated course. Proctitis and left-sided ulcerative colitis are more common in patients aged >60 years. Infections are associated with age and account for significant mortality in IBD patients. The treatment of IBD in the elderly is generally similar. However, the therapeutic approach in the elderly should be 'start low-go slow'. The benefit of thiopurines in older CD patients remains debatable. Although the indications for anti-tumour necrosis factors in the elderly are generally similar to those for younger patients, lower response and higher adverse events have been reported in the elderly. Surgery in elderly patients does not generally differ. Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis can be successful, provided the patient retains good anal sphincter function. CONCLUSIONS Management of the older IBD patient differs from that of younger patients; therefore, conventional practice algorithms may have to be modified to account for advanced age.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the use of health care resources and the associated costs of complex perianal Crohn's disease (CD) from the National Health System perspective. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, retrospective, observational study in which gastroenterologists from 11 hospitals in the Community of Madrid took part. Data was collected on the direct healthcare resources (pharmacological treatments, surgical procedures, laboratory/diagnostic tests, visits to specialists and emergency departments, and hospitalizations) consumed by 97 adult patients with complex perianal CD which was active at some point between January 1, 2005, and case history review. RESULTS We recorded 527 treatments: 73.1% pharmacological (32.3% antibiotic, 20.5% immunomodulator, 20.3% biological) and 26.9% surgical. Mean annual global cost was €8,289/patient, 75.3% (€6,242) of which was accounted for by pharmacological treatments (€13.44 antibiotics; €1,136 immunomodulators; €5,093 biological agents), 12.4% (€1,027) by hospitalizations and surgery, 7.7% (€640) by medical visits, 4.2% (€350) by laboratory/diagnostic tests, and 0.4% (€30) by emergency department visits. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacological therapies, and in particular biological agents, are the main cost driver in complex perianal CD; costs due to surgery and hospitalizations are much lower.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The safety of thiopurines and anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) drugs during pregnancy remains controversial, as the experience with these drugs in this situation is limited. Our aim is to assess the safety of thiopurines and anti-TNF-α drugs for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) during pregnancy. METHODS Retrospective, multicenter study in IBD patients. Pregnancies were classified according to the therapeutic regimens during pregnancy or during the 3 months before the conception: non-exposed group, pregnancies exposed to thiopurines alone (group A), and pregnancies exposed to anti-TNF-α drugs (group B). An unfavorable Global Pregnancy Outcome (GPO) was considered if pregnancy developed with obstetric complications in the mother and in the newborn. RESULTS A total of 187 pregnancies in the group A, 66 pregnancies in the group B, and 318 pregnancies in the non-exposed group were included. The rate of unfavorable GPO was different among the three groups (31.8% in non-exposed group, 21.9% in group A, and 34.8% in group B), being lower in pregnancies under thiopurines than among non-exposed (P = 0.01). The rate of pregnancy complications was similar among the three groups (27.7% in non-exposed, 20.9% in group A, and 30.3% in group B). The rate of neonatal complications was different among the three groups (23.3% in non-exposed group, 13.9% in group A, and 21.2% in group B), being lower in pregnancies under thiopurines than among non-exposed (P = 0.01). In the multivariate analysis, the treatment with thiopurines (odds ratio = 0.6; 95% confidence interval = 0.4-0.9, P = 0.02) was the only predictor of favorable GPO, whereas maternal age >35 years at conception was the only predictor of unfavorable GPO. The treatment with anti-TNF-α drugs was not associated with an unfavorable GPO. CONCLUSION The treatment with thiopurines and anti-TNF-α drugs does not seem to increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and does seem to be safe for the newborn.

Abstract
Crohn's disease is a chronic transmural inflammatory disorder characterized by inflammation of the intestine. Anti-TNF-α drugs are used for induction and maintenance of remission in patients with this condition. Thrombocytopenia is an uncommon side effect of treatment with anti-TNF-α drugs. We report the case of a 71-year-old woman diagnosed with Crohn's disease who developed severe adalimumab-induced thrombocytopenia and who did not respond to standard therapy for thrombocytopenia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We assessed the effectiveness of hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, evaluated the impact of immunosuppressors and anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents, and assessed the effectiveness of revaccination. METHODS IBD patients were vaccinated against HBV with a quick (0, 1, and 2 months) and double-dose schedule (Engerix B). A second vaccination was administered to nonresponders. RESULTS Of 241 vaccinated patients, anti-HBs was >10 IU/l in 59% and >100 IU/l in 39%. The response rate (anti-HBs >10 IU/l) was lower among patients under anti-TNF therapy: 46% vs. 62%. In the multivariate analysis, a lower response rate was demonstrated in older patients and those receiving anti-TNFs. The response rate (anti-HBs >100 IU/l) after revaccination was 42%. CONCLUSIONS The response rate to the HBV vaccination--even with a double-dose schedule--is very low in IBD patients, mainly in those receiving anti-TNFs. However, treatment with immunosuppressors did not affect the efficacy of the vaccine. A considerable--albeit insufficient--success rate may be obtained when two consecutive vaccination courses, each with a three-dose vaccine series, are administered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The response rate to hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is low. AIM To compare two vaccination protocols-the standard dose and the double dose-in IBD patients. METHODS Patients diagnosed with IBD from three tertiary hospitals were vaccinated against HBV with two different protocols: the standard protocol (Engerix-B single dose at 0, 1 and 6 months) and the new faster protocol based on a double dose (Engerix B double dose at 0, 1 and 2 months). Anti-HBs titres were measured 1-3 months after the last dose. A multivariate analysis was performed to identify factors that were predictive of response to the vaccine. RESULTS The study sample comprised 148 patients (mean age 40 years, 69% Crohn's disease), 70% of whom were receiving immunosuppressive therapy (22% thiopurines, 23% anti-TNF and 25% both). The standard protocol was followed in 46% of patients and the double dose protocol in 54%. Considering anti-HBs >10 IU/L as a successful response to vaccination, the seroconversion rate was higher among patients vaccinated with the double dose than with the standard dose: 75% (95% CI, 65-85%) vs. 41% (95% CI, 29-54%) (P < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, vaccination with the double dose was the only factor associated with a better response to the vaccine (OR, 4; 95% CI, 2-8; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The response rate to the HBV vaccination in IBD patients is low. Administration of a double dose was associated with a higher response rate. Therefore, the double dose protocol could be a suitable option in patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The associations between clinical efficacy and infusion reactions with anti-TNF-α drug levels and the presence of antibodies against the drug have been described. However, the clinical utility of these tests in routine clinical practice remains unclear. AIMS To examine the clinical significance of the development of antibodies against anti-TNF-α drugs and the relationship between the efficacy of these drugs and their serum levels. We also studied the clinical utility of testing for anti-TNF-α antibodies and measuring drug serum levels to optimise treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) receiving these agents. METHODS A systematic review was undertaken based on electronic searches of the PubMed database from the earliest record to February 2012. The reference lists of all relevant articles and abstracts from meetings were also consulted. RESULTS We observed a close relationship between trough levels of anti-TNF-α drug and maintenance of response to these drugs. The role of antibodies in loss of response seems to be limited to their effect favouring the clearance of the drug. The risk of infusion reactions, but not of delayed hypersensitivity reactions, is higher in patients with antibodies against the anti-TNF-α drug. Testing anti-TNF-α drug and antibody levels, together with clinical and endoscopic or radiological assessment, seems useful when attempting to optimise therapy and prevent inappropriate management of IBD patients. CONCLUSION Measurement of serum anti-TNF-α trough levels and antibody titres could prove useful in therapeutic drug monitoring in IBD patients treated with anti-TNF-α agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adalimumab is an effective treatment for Crohn's disease (CD), but may also be associated with loss of response. Few reports provide insight into the durability of treatment of CD with adalimumab for periods longer than 12 months in clinical practice. AIMS To evaluate the long-term durability of adalimumab maintenance treatment and to identify predictive factors associated with loss of response. METHODS CD patients who initially responded to adalimumab were evaluated in a historical cohort study. Maintenance of long-term response was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Cox regression analysis was performed to identify potential predictive factors for loss of efficacy. RESULTS In all, 380 CD patients were included (mean age, 38 years; 52% female). Of these, 43% had ileocolic CD, 50% inflammatory CD, and 41% perianal CD. Median follow-up with adalimumab was 8 months (range, 4-75 months). The annual risk of loss of response to adalimumab was 18% per patient-year of follow-up. Twenty-eight percent of patients were anti-TNF-naïve and 72% anti-TNF-experienced. The loss of efficacy was 8% per patient-year of follow-up in the anti-TNF-naïve patients and 22% in the anti-TNF-experienced group (P < 0.01). In the multivariate analysis, the presence of extraintestinal manifestations (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.7; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.02-2.9) and previous experience with other anti-TNF agents (HR = 2.5,95% CI = 1.2-5.3) were associated with higher risk of loss of efficacy. CONCLUSIONS A relevant proportion of CD patients on long-term adalimumab lost response. The risk of loss of response was higher (more than 2-fold) in anti-TNF-experienced than in anti-TNF-naïve patients (22% vs. 8% per patient-year of treatment). Having extraintestinal manifestations seems to increase the risk of loss of efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ciclosporin has proven to be effective in patients with corticosteroid-refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). When therapy with this drug fails, infliximab can be considered to avoid colectomy. The efficacy and safety of this sequential approach remain unknown. AIM To assess the efficacy and safety profile of treatment with infliximab after failure of ciclosporin in patients with a corticosteroid-refractory flare of UC. METHODS Retrospective review of medical records of patients with a corticosteroid-refractory flare of UC who did not respond to ciclosporin and received salvage therapy with infliximab within a month of discontinuing ciclosporin. The severity of the flare and response to the treatment were graded using the Lichtiger index. Cumulative rates of colectomy were calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Cox regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of colectomy. To evaluate the safety profile of this treatment strategy, any adverse event occurring after the first infusion of infliximab was considered. RESULTS The study population comprised 47 patients with corticosteroid-refractory UC treated with infliximab after failure of ciclosporin. The median baseline Lichtiger index was 13. The mean time from the last ciclosporin dose to the first infliximab infusion was 6 days. After the first infliximab infusion, 13% of patients achieved remission, and 74% partial response. Of the 35 patients who received the third infliximab infusion, 60% achieved remission, and 37% partial response. Fourteen patients (30%) underwent colectomy. The rate of adverse events was 23%. One death occurred in a 40-year-old man who failed ciclosporin and infliximab and underwent surgery 10 days after the first infliximab infusion; he died of nosocomial pneumonia. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with infliximab makes it possible to avoid colectomy in two-thirds of corticosteroid-refractory UC patients in whom ciclosporin fails. However, the rates of adverse events and mortality mean that the decision to administer sequential therapy (ciclosporin-infliximab) should be taken on an individual basis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional imaging techniques, including ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are increasingly used for evaluation of Crohn's disease (CD). Aim To perform an assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of cross-sectional imaging techniques for diagnosis of CD, evaluation of disease extension and activity and diagnosis of complications, and to provide recommendations for their optimal use. METHODS Relevant publications were identified by literature search and selected based on predefined quality parameters, including a prospective design, sample size and reference standard. A total of 68 publications were chosen. RESULTS Ultrasonography is an accurate technique for diagnosis of suspected CD and for evaluation of disease activity (sensitivity 0.84, specificity 0.92), is widely available and non-invasive, but its accuracy is lower for disease proximal to the terminal ileum. MRI has a high diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of suspected CD and for evaluation of disease extension and activity (sensitivity 0.93, specificity 0.90), and is less dependent on the examiner and disease location compared with US. CT has a similar accuracy to MRI for assessment of disease extension and activity. The three techniques have a high accuracy for identification of fistulas, abscesses and stenosis (sensitivities and specificities >0.80), although US has false positive results for abscesses. As a result of the lack of radiation, US or MRI should be preferred over CT, particularly in young patients. CONCLUSIONS Cross-sectional imaging techniques have a high accuracy for evaluation of suspected and established CD, reliably measure disease severity and complications; they may offer the possibility to monitor disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Viral hepatitis is a very common infection. AIM To review the prevention and management of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS Bibliographical searches were performed in MEDLINE up to September 2010. RESULTS The prevalence of both HBV and HCV infection in IBD patients is now similar to that of the general population. All IBD patients should be screened for HBV markers at diagnosis. Liver dysfunction in IBD patients treated with immunosuppressants is more frequent and severe in HBV than in HCV carriers and is associated with combined immunosuppression. Inpatients receiving anti-TNF drugs, HBV reactivation is common unless anti-viral prophylaxis is administered. HBsAg-positive patients should receive anti-viral prophylaxis before starting immunosuppressants. As interferon might worsen underlying IBD, nucleoside ⁄ nucleotide analogues are preferred for anti-viral prophylaxis in patients with HBV (tenofovir ⁄ entecavir are preferred to lamivudine). IBD patients should be vaccinated against HBV at diagnosis. The response rate to HBV vaccination is low, mainly in those receiving anti-TNF therapy. The serological response to HBV vaccine should be confirmed, and patients with an inadequate response should receive a second full series of vaccine. Peginterferon (ribavirin) for HCV infection is as effective and safe as in non-IBD patients. CONCLUSIONS The present manuscript poses a series of questions on the prevention and management of HBV/HCV infection in IBD, and attempts to answer them using scientific evidence in order to provide practical conclusions for the clinician.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Interferon-alfa-based therapy is effective in the treatment of Hepatitis C. However, some patients fail to respond and others relapse, after initially responding. Our objective was to assess the efficacy, safety and predictive factors for sustained virological response (SVR) to peginterferon plus ribavirin in chronic hepatitis C patients who failed to interferon-alfa (IFNα)-based therapy. METHODS Seventy-five consecutive patients who failed to IFNα-based therapy were retreated with peginterferon plus ribavirin. Of these patients, 85% were infected by genotype 1. The primary endpoint was SVR. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Of 75 non-responder (n = 54) or relapser patients (n = 21), 50 were previously treated with IFNα-monotherapy and 25 with IFNα plus ribavirin. Global SVR rate was 41.3%: for patients re-treated with IFNα the response was 48% whilst for those retreated with IFNα plus ribavirin, it was 28%. For previous non-responders the SVR rate was 37% and for relapsers it was 52.4%. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Retreatment with peginterferon plus ribavirin is an effective option for some chronic hepatitis C non-responder or relapser patients. Higher SVR rate was achieved in relapsers and in those patients who received IFNα monotherapy previously.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no information about the frequency of liver dysfunction in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with immunosuppressants and infected with hepatitis B (HBV) and/or C virus (HCV). AIM To assess the influence of immunosuppressants on the course of HBV and HCV infection in IBD. METHODS Patients with IBD with HBV and/or HCV infection from 19 Spanish hospitals were included. Clinical records were reviewed for the type of immunosuppressant used, treatment duration, liver function tests and viral markers before, during and after each immunosuppressant. Logistic and Cox regression analysis were used to identify predictors of outcome. RESULTS 162 patients were included; 104 had HBV markers (25 HBsAg positive) and 74 had HCV markers (51 HCV-RNA positive), and 16 patients had markers of both infections. Liver dysfunction was observed in 9 of 25 HBsAg positive patients (36%), 6 of whom developed hepatic failure. Liver dysfunction in HCV was observed in 8 of 51 HCV-RNA positive patients (15.7%), and only one developed hepatic failure. The frequency and severity of liver dysfunction was significantly higher in HBV-infected patients than in HCV-infected patients (p=0.045 and p=0.049, respectively). Treatment with ≥2 immunosuppressants was an independent predictor of HBV reactivation (OR 8.75; 95% CI 1.16 to 65.66). The majority of patients without reactivation received only one immunosuppressant for a short period and/or prophylactic antiviral treatment. No definite HBV reactivations were found in anti-HBc positive patients lacking HBsAg. CONCLUSION Liver dysfunction in patients with IBD treated with immunosuppressants is more frequent and severe in those with HBV than in HCV carriers and is associated with combined immunosuppression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide. Unresectable disease patients have median survival of few months. There is a substantial need for novel treatments for patients with advanced HCC. AIM To provide an update review of mechanism of hepatocarcinigenesis and systemic therapies for HCC and the relevant role of Sorafenib in patients with advanced disease. METHODS A Medline search was performed to identify pertinent original research and review articles. Selected references in these articles were also evaluated. RESULTS Systemic chemotherapy for HCC has been quite ineffective. Preclinical studies demonstrated that Raf/MAPK-ERK kinase (MEK)/Extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) pathway has a role in HCC. HCC tumours are highly vascularized and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) augments HCC development and metastasis. Sorafenib blocks tumour cell proliferation by targeting Raf/MEK/ERK signalling and exerts an antiangiogenic effect by targeting VEGF receptors-2/3 and platelet derived growth factor receptor beta tyrosine kinases. CONCLUSIONS Currently available therapies are not effective for patients with advanced HCC. Sorafenib has demonstrated for the first time to prolong survival in patients with advanced HCC, and it is the new reference standard for systemic treatment in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A prenatal sonogram at 27 weeks of gestation revealed a brain mass along the frontal horn and body of the lateral ventricle near the foramen of Monro in the fetus. MATERIALS AND METHODS A huge subependymal giant-cell astrocytoma was nearly totally resected at 11 days of age. RESULTS There was no syndromic family history, but features substantiating the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis were recognized at 4 years of age. CONCLUSION The sonographic finding of a tumor in the region of the foramen of Monro should raise the suspicion of a subependymal giant-cell astrocytoma, a tumor characteristically associated with tuberous sclerosis.
