Crohns disease with central nervous system vasculitis causing subarachnoid hemorrhage due to aneurysm and cerebral ischemic stroke
We report a 39-year-old male who presented with headache, vomiting, and left-sided weakness in the known case of CD. Cross-sectional imaging (computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging,) showed right gangliocapsular acute infarct with supraclinoid cistern subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Cerebral digital substraction angiography (DSA) showed dilatation and narrowing of right distal internal carotid artery (ICA). Left ICA was chronically occluded. His inflammatory markers were significantly raised. Imaging features are suggestive of cerebral vasculitis. Arterial and venous infarcts due to thrombosis are known in CD. O...

Chronic Inflammatory Disorders and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Coronary Heart Disease, and Stroke: A Population-Based Cohort Study.
CONCLUSIONS: -The risk of cardiovascular diseases and T2DM is increased across a range of organ-specific and multi-system chronic inflammatory disorders with evidence that risk is associated with severity of inflammation. Clinical management of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders should aim to reduce cardiovascular risk. PMID: 24970784 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A Rare Association between Ulcerative Colitis and Bilateral Thalamic Stroke (P6.270)
CONCLUSIONS:Cerebral sinus and vein thrombosis is a serious and often fatal complication of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease if undiagnosed. It should be considered in any patient with little or no known vascular risk factors presenting with a severe headache and other focal or diffuse neurological signs.Disclosure: Dr. Misthal has nothing to disclose.

Paroxysmal Dysarthria and Ataxia after Treatment of Brainstem Encephalitis (P6.053)
CONCLUSIONS: Paroxysmal dysarthria and ataxia is most often recognized as a complication of multiple sclerosis, but it can occur in other neurologic diseases with midbrain lesions near or involving the red nucleus. Effective treatments include carbamazepine, acetazolamide, lamotrigine, and phenytoin.Study Supported by: N/A.Disclosure: Dr. Klaas has nothing to disclose. Dr. Boes has nothing to disclose.

What is the best strategy for successful bowel preparation under special conditions?
Abstract Adequate bowel preparation is important for successful colonoscopic examination. Several effective colonic cleansing agents are available and routinely prescribed, but each carries its own limitations and benefits from particular dosing regimens. The most frequently prescribed colonic cleansing agent, the polyethylene glycol (PEG) cathartic solution, suffers from low patient compliance in general, due to its unpalatable taste and smell coupled with the large ingested volumes required. However, PEG is preferred over other cathartics for use in individuals of advanced age, sufferers of chronic kidney diseas...

Impact of post operative intensity modulated radiotherapy on acute gastro-intestinal toxicity for patients with endometrial cancer: Results of the phase II RTCMIENDOMETRE French multicentre trial.
CONCLUSION: In accordance with our hypothesis, post-operative IMRT resulted in a low rate (less than 30%) of acute GI grade 2 toxicity, in patients with endometrial carcinomas. At W15, no patient demonstrated a grade 2 adverse event, and the prevalence of remaining grade 1 events was less than 20%. PMID: 24630537 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Adiponectin as a routine clinical biomarker.
Abstract Adiponectin is a protein synthesized and secreted predominantly by adipocytes into the peripheral blood. However, circulating adiponectin level is inversely related with body weight, especially visceral fat accumulation. The mechanism of this paradoxical relation remains obscure. Low circulating adiponectin concentrations (hypoadiponectinemia; <4 μg/mL) are associated with a variety of diseases, including dysmetabolism (type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome, hyperuricemia), atherosclerosis (coronary artery disease, stroke, peripheral artery disease), slee...

Risk of subarachnoid haemorrhage in people admitted to hospital with selected immune-mediated diseases: record-linkage studies
Conclusions: Our findings strongly support the suggestion that patients with some immune-mediated diseases have an increased risk of SAH. Further studies of the mechanisms behind this association are warranted.

Cardiovascular Risk in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: It’s a Heartache!
Rungoe C, Basit S, Ranthe MF, et al. Risk of ischemic heart disease in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: a nationwide Danish cohort study. Gut 2013;62:689–694. Besides predisposing to venous thromboembolism, chronic systemic inflammation is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis by promoting plaque formation, inducing endothelial dysfunction, and promoting platelet activation and aggregation (N Engl J Med 2005;352:1685–1695). Epidemiologic studies have shown that chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus are associated with premature atherosclerosis an...

IBD sufferers at higher risk of stroke and heart attack
New research from the Mayo Clinic shows an increased risk of stroke or heart attack for patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In this disease, an abnormal response from the body's immune system mistakes food for a foreign substance, which triggers an immune response whereby the body attacks the cells lining the intestines, causing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract...
