Handbook of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Synopsis "Handbook of Inflammatory Bowel Disease"
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises of two conditions- ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. These involve chronic inflammation of the colon and small intestine. IBD is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors interacting with the body's defense system. IBD can exhibit intestinal complications such as toxic megacolon, ulcers, strictures and fistulas. Extraintestinal complications such as skin rashes, eye problems, liver disease and arthritis are also common. IBD is rarely a fatal disease. Fatalities may however arise due to bowel perforation, toxic megacolon and surgical complications. The goal of IBD treatment is achieving total remission. Often an acute resurgence of symptoms may occur, which may again require medication. Some of the research dimensions in the management of IBD explore the healing effects of helminthic therapy, prebiotics and probiotics, and cannabis. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the diagnosis and therapy for inflammatory bowel disease. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this condition have been included herein. It will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in inflammatory bowel disease.
