Brief Summary

Malnutrition and growth retardation are common in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), especially in Crohn's Disease (CD). Malnutrition is associated with disease type, anatomical location, severity of disease and age of patient. Recently, it is reported that almost all children with CD and half with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) have reduced lean mass, however, body fat alteration are not well defined. The aim of this prospective and observational study was to evaluate nutritional and growth status and body composition of children with IBD using anthropometric measurement and bioelectrical impedance during 1 year follow-up.

Study Arms (2)

Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Patients 6-18 of age at the time of enrolment who have IBD at any stage of disease activity, on any or no treatment

Other: Assesment of nutritional status and body composition

Control

Age- and sex-matched healthy controls

Other: Assesment of nutritional status and body composition

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with IBD at any stage of disease activity, on any or no treatment and age- and sex-matched healthy controls

You may qualify if:

  • A male or female of 6 to 18 years of age at the time of enrolment
  • For children with IBD; the diagnosis of IBD are based on the combination of clinical features and serological, endoscopic, colonoscopic, and histological findings
  • For controls : no evidence of inflammatory or chronic disease

You may not qualify if:

  • A male or female \< 6 years or \> 18 years old at the enrollment
  • For children with IBD : Presence of other chronic diseases
  • For healthy control: Any coexisting chronic disease known to affect growth, nutritional status, dietary intake, or development
