Trial summary

Malnutrition and growth retardation are major extraintestinal presentations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood and are especially prevalent among those with Crohn's disease. We aimed to evaluate nutritional status of children with IBD at the time of diagnosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Nutritional Status in Children With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Malnutrition and growth retardation are major extraintestinal presentations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood and are especially prevalent among those with Crohn's disease. We aimed to evaluate nutritional status of children with IBD at the time of diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

Data for this study will be derived from the web-based National Registry for Pediatric IBD. The children (age: ≤ 18 years) who diagnosed with IBD according to international criteria will be eligible for enrollment. Data on demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics at the time of diagnosis were extracted from the registry. All cases in the registry will be screened for eligibility criteria by principal investigator (senior gastroenterologist). The patients with other chronic disease known affect nutritional status will be excluded. The cases who had the missing major outcome variables including symptom duration, weight, height, disease activity, disease location and phenotype at the time of diagnosis will be excluded from the analysis, if they had all of these outcome variables, they were included.

The nutritional status of participants will be evaluated based on anthropometric parameters. The weight status will be assessed by weight-for-length in children <2 years of age, and BMI-for-age in children 2 years of age and older. Height status will be evaluated by length/height-for-age in all cases. Age-and-sex specific percentile and the corresponding z score for all anthropometric parameters will be calculated in the WHOAnthro for under five years and WHOAnthroplus (WHO, Geneva, Switzerland) for those aged 5-18 years by using WHO standards and references. Z-scores between +2.0 and -2.0 for all parameters will be considered normal. Wasted/thinness and overweight will be defined by weight-for-length/BMI z score < -2.0, and > +2.0, respectively. Stunting (short stature) and tallness will be defined as length/height-for-age z score < -2.0 and > +2.0, respectively. Children will be stratified into two age groups for analysis: < 10 years of age and older. A p value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Child, run by Ankara University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Mar 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

nutritional profiles of children with IBD (time frame: Day 1 of diagnosis). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04457518, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Mar 2021.
