Abstract

Background: There is substantial evidence linking disturbed gastrointestinal motility to inflammation. Thus, it is not surprising that abnormalities of gastrointestinal motility play a role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), affecting patient outcomes. We performed a review of the literature to investigate the relationship between abnormal gut motility and IBD. Methods: With an extensive literature search, we retrieved the pertinent articles linking disturbed gut motility to IBD in various anatomical districts. Results: The evidence in the literature suggests that abnormal gastrointestinal motility plays a role in the clinical setting of IBD and may confuse the clinical picture. Conclusions: Abnormal gut motility may be important in the clinical setting of IBD. However, additional data obtained with modern techniques (e.g., magnetic resonance imaging) are needed to individuate in a more precise manner gastrointestinal motor dysfunctions, to understand the nature of clinical manifestations and properly tailor the treatment of patients.

12. Helicobacter pylori CagA antibodies and thyroid function in latent autoimmune diabetes in adults.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: H. pylori infection is reportedly associated with autoimmune diseases such as chronic thyroiditis and autoimmune diabetes. The aim of this study is to determine the association between H. pylori infection and its virulent strain CagA with antibodies against thyroperoxidase (TPO Ab) and thyrotropin (TSH) in a cohort of latent autoimmune diabetes in adult (LADA) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included 234 LADA patients (53.8% women). Antibodies against H. pylori whole antigens and CagA, TPO Ab and TSH were assessed in all patients. RESULTS: Prevalence of IgG against H. pylori and GagA was 52.1% and 20.9% respectively. Antibodies against H. pylori were not associated with TPO Ab and TSH (rho = 0.067, p = 0.620 and rho = 0.156, p = 0.099, respectively). Antibodies against CagA showed a positive association with TSH and TPO Ab (respectively rho = 0.309, p = 0.036 and rho = 0.419, p = 0.037). Subjects with hypothyroidism (TSH ≥ 3.5 μU/ml) had an increased frequency of Ab anti CagA (p = 0.059). CONCLUSIONS: The infection by H. pylori strains expressing CagA is associated with increased TPO Ab and TSH levels in LADA patients, suggesting a possible mechanism involved in thyroid autoimmunity and dysfunction of the gland. Further research is needed to test this hypothesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
