Trial summary

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori has been linked to a variety of gastric and extra gastric diseases. Chronic infection with H. pylori causes histologically evident gastritis in all colonized individuals and is the predominant risk factor for gastric and duodenal ulcers as well as gastric adenocarcinoma.

About this study

Introduction:

Helicobacter pylori has been linked to a variety of gastric and extra gastric diseases. Chronic infection with H. pylori causes histologically evident gastritis in all colonized individuals and is the predominant risk factor for gastric and duodenal ulcers as well as gastric adenocarcinoma. However, increasingly robust experimental and epidemiological evidence suggests that H. pylori may at the same time be beneficial to its carriers, as it efficiently prevents allergic disorders and chronic inflammatory conditions .

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic, nonspecific intestinal inflammation with an unexplained pathology and an alternating relapsing and remitting clinical progression. IBD is divided into two subtypes: ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Most studies in the IBD field attribute its etiology to the complex interactions among immune dysfunction, genetic susceptibility of the host, and environmental risk factors.

Since the twenty-first century, improving hygienic conditions and socioeconomic status have reduced the H. pylori infection rate and this trend has concurrently been accompanied by an increased IBD incidence in most countries Numerous studies have reported a lower H. pylori infection rate in patients with CD and/or UC than in non-IBD control individuals. although a small number of studies showed no significant association .Recently, emerging epidemiologic studies and animal experiments revealed an inverse correlation between H. pylori infection and IBD onset, suggesting that H. pylori colonization exerts a special protective effect on autoimmune diseases

observation Cross sectional study will be conducted at assuit university hospitals on all patients with inflammatory disease to detect the prevalence of helicobacter pylori among them .Then the examined patients will be divided in to two group receiving the same medication group A : inflammatory bowel disease patient with H.PYLORI group B: inflammatory bowel disease Patient without H.PYLORI longitudinal study will be conducted to both group to study the clinical outcomes in both group .

PATIENT AND METHOD :

observation Cross sectional study will be conducted at assuit university hospitals on all patients with inflammatory disease to detect the prevalence of helicobacter pylori among them .Then the examined patients will be divided in to two group receiving the same medication group A : inflammatory bowel disease patient with H.PYLORI group B: inflammatory bowel disease Patient without H.PYLORI longitudinal study will be conducted to both group to study the clinical outcomes in both group .

  1. Thorough medical history and full clinical examination will be taken from all patient including -Personal history focus on special habit especially smoking -documented previous history for H.pylori eradication
  • Onset and duration of inflammatory bowel disease
  • current medication
  • presence of any extra intestinal manifestation of Inflammatory bowel disease
  • presence of any complications from Inflammatory bowel disease
  1. Investigation : -All patients with inflammatory bowel disease will be tested for presence or absence of H.PYLORI by histological examination of endoscopically biopsied gastric mucosa -his to logical examination of colonic mucosal every 3 months -complete blood count -serum albumin -c reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). -fecal calprotectin if possible
  • assess the severity of among both group (A,B) every 3 month for 2years. ulcerative by Mayo Score/Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index and Crohn's disease by Montreal classifications for Crohn's Disease . Mayo Score/Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Stool frequency 0 = Normal 1 = 1-2 stools/day more than normal 2 = 3-4 stools/day more than normal 3 = 4 stools/day more than normal Rectal bleeding 0 = None 1 = Visible blood with stool less than half the time 2 = Visible blood with stool half of the time or more 3 = Passing blood alone Mucosal appearance at endoscopy 0 = Normal or inactive disease 1 = Mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability) 2 = Moderate disease (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions) 3 = Severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration) Physician rating of disease activity 0 = Normal 1 = Mild 2 = Moderate 3 = Severe

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. prevalance of H.pylori among patients with inflammatory bowel disease

    Number of patient with inflammatory bowel disease with H.pylori infection

    Measured: One years

  2. Mayo score activity index among ulcerative colitis patients with H.pylori and without H.pylori

    Stool frequency 0 = Normal 1 = 1-2 stools/day more than normal 2 = 3-4 stools/day more than normal 3 = 4 stools/day more than normal Rectal bleeding 0 = None 1 = Visible blood with stool less than half the time 2 = Visible blood with stool half of the time or more 3 = Passing blood alone Mucosal appearance at endoscopy 0 = Normal or inactive disease 1 = Mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability) 2 = Moderate disease (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions) 3 = Severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration) Physician rating of disease activity 0 = Normal 1 = Mild 2 = Moderate 3 = Severe

    Measured: Two years

  3. Mucosal healing among inflammatory bowel disease with H.pylori and without H.pylori

    Histological examination of the biopsied colonic mucosal every 3 months in both groups

    Measured: 1years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Helicobacter Infections, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

prevalance of H.pylori among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (time frame: One years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jun 2021.
