Abstract
It has been widely endorsed that a multifactorial etiology, including interaction between genetic and environmental factors, can contribute to Crohn's Disease (CD) pathogenesis. More specifically, diet has proven to be able to shape gut microbiota composition and thus is suspected to play a significant role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis. Moreover, poor nutritional status and growth retardation, arising from several factors such as reduced dietary intake or nutrient leakage from the gastrointestinal tract, represent the hallmarks of pediatric CD. For these reasons, multiple research lines have recently focused on the utilization of dietary therapies for the management of CD, aiming to target concurrently mucosal inflammation, intestinal dysbiosis and optimization of nutritional status. The forerunner of such interventions is represented by exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN), a robustly supported nutritional therapy; however, it is burdened by monotony and low tolerance in the long term. Novel dietary interventions, such as Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet or Crohn's Disease treatment with eating, have shown their efficacy in the induction of remission in pediatric patients with CD. The aim of the present narrative review is to provide a synopsis of the available nutritional strategies in the management of pediatric CD and to discuss their application in the dietary management of these patients.

Abstract
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease whose prevalence is increasing worldwide. Among medical strategies, dietary therapy with exclusive enteral nutrition is recommended as a first-line option, at least for children, because it induces clinical remission and mucosal healing. Modulen®, a polymeric TGF-β2 enriched formula, has good palatability and is widely used. For the first time in the literature, this review outlines and discusses the clinical outcomes obtained with this therapy, as well as the potential mechanisms of action of its compounds. It can be explained by its TGF-β2 content, but also by its protein and lipid composition. Further well-designed studies are required to improve our knowledge and to optimize therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Growth delay with height and weight impairment is a common feature of pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases (PIBD). Up to 2/3 of Crohn Disease patients have impaired weight at diagnosis, and up to 1/3 have impaired height. Ulcerative colitis usually manifests earlier with less impaired growth, though patients can be affected. Ultimately, growth delay, if not corrected, can reduce final adult height. Weight loss, reduced bone mass, and pubertal delay are also concerns associated with growth delay in newly diagnosed PIBD patients. The mechanisms for growth delay in IBD are multifactorial and include reduced nutrient intake, poor absorption, increased fecal losses, as well as direct effects from inflammation and treatment modalities. Management of growth delay requires optimal disease control. Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN), biologic therapy, and corticosteroids are the primary induction strategies used in PIBD, and both EEN and biologics positively impact growth and bone development. Beyond adequate disease control, growth delay and pubertal delay require a multidisciplinary approach, dependent on diligent monitoring and identification, nutritional rehabilitation, and involvement of endocrinology and psychiatry services as needed. Pitfalls that clinicians may encounter when managing growth delay include refeeding syndrome, obesity (even in the setting of malnutrition), and restrictive diets. Although treatment of PIBD has improved substantially in the last several decades with the era of biologic therapies and EEN, there is still much to be learned about growth delay in PIBD in order to improve outcomes.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE The morbidity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children has significantly increased in recent years. The diagnosis and treatment of IBD in children are progressing rapidly. Probiotics have been extensively studied in a variety of gastrointestinal diseases. However, the effectiveness of probiotics for IBD is inconsistent. This study summarized the recommendations on using probiotics from high-quality guidelines, and the recommendations may assist clinicians in the treatment of paediatric IBD. METHODS Guidelines were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, three Chinese literature databases and websites of relevant institutions. Guidelines that addressed the treatments of paediatric IBD in Chinese and English were included and evaluated with the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II) instrument to assess methodological quality. The levels of recommendation were also evaluated, and finally, the recommendations of probiotics application in IBD were summarized. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A total of 14 guidelines that met inclusion criteria were identified and evaluated, and 12 of them were evidence-based (EB) guidelines, and the other two guidelines were developed by consensus. The mean percentages for the AGREE II domain scores were as follows: "Scope and purpose" 97.22%, "Clarity of presentation" 93.78%, "Applicability" 55.85%, "Editorial independence" 59.92%, "Stakeholder involvement" 74.34%, and "Rigor of development" 71.58%. Three guidelines received the Grade A-"Strongly recommended," the rest of the guidelines received a B grade-"Recommended with modifications" in the overall assessment. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION The overall quality of the guidelines on IBD management in children was high. Conversely, the fundamental recommendations on the application of probiotics in the treatment of IBD varied. For instance, the recommendations of probiotics on Crohn's disease (CD) were not available by any of the analysed guidelines, the recommendations of utilizing probiotics in treating ulcerative colitis (UC) were not uniform as several guidelines considered using VSL#3 or Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 for the treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutrition related publications in pediatric population cover wide range of topics and therefore it is usually difficult for clinicians to get an overview of recent nutrition related guidelines or recommendations. METHODS The Special Interest Group (SIG) of Pediatrics of European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) performed a literature search to capture publications in the last five years aiming to provide the latest information concerning nutritional issues in children in general and in specific diseases and to discuss progression in the field of pediatric nutrition evidence-based practice. RESULTS Eight major topics were identified as the most frequently reported including allergy, critical illness, neonatal nutrition, parenteral and enteral nutrition, micronutrients, probiotics and malnutrition. Furthermore, it was noted that many reports were disease focused or included micronutrients and were, therefore, represented as tables. CONCLUSION Overall, it has been shown that most reports on nutrition topics in pediatrics were systematic reviews or guidelines/position papers of relevant societies, but many of them basing the conclusion on a limited number of high-quality randomized controlled trials or large observational cohort studies.

Abstract
Both genetic and environmental factors are involved in the onset of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In particular, diet composition is suspected to significantly contribute to IBD risk. In recent years, major interest has raised about the role of nutrition in disease pathogenesis and course, and many studies have shown a clear link between diet composition and intestinal permeability impairment. Moreover, many IBD-related factors, such as poor dietary intake, nutrients loss and drugs interact with nutritional status, thus paving the way for the development of many therapeutic strategies in which nutrition represents the cornerstone, either as first-line therapy or as reversing nutritional deficiencies and malnutrition in IBD patients. Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) is the most rigorously supported dietary intervention for the treatment of Crohn's Disease (CD), but is burdened by a low tolerability, especially in pediatric patients. Promising alternative regimens are represented by Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet (CDED), and other elimination diets, whose use is gradually spreading. The aim of the current paper is to provide a comprehensive and updated overview on the latest evidence about the role of nutrition and diet in pediatric IBD, focusing on the different nutritional interventions available for the management of the disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chronic inflammation of Crohn disease (CD) is associated with reduced bone mineral density (BMD). As bone mass is almost exclusively accrued during childhood, early recognition of osteopenia is especially important in pediatric CD. We aimed to identify variables associated with osteopenia to guide dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan screening to those who most need it. METHODS This was a retrospective inception cohort study of children newly diagnosed with CD, and routinely referred to DXA scans. Demographic and explicit clinical data were recorded along with whole-body less head BMD, adjusted for age, sex, and height by z-scores. RESULTS Of the 116 included children (mean age 13 ± 3.1 years, 67 [58%] boys, mean body mass index [BMI] 16.7 ± 2.6), 63 (54%) had normal BMD (z-score > -1) or borderline osteopenia (-1 ≥ z-score > -2) and 53 (46%) had osteopenia (z-score ≤ -2). Osteopenia was associated with lower BMI z-score (-0.8 ± 1.2 vs -1.8 ± 1.1, P < 0.001) and higher PCDAI (33.7 ± 15.2 vs 25.7 ± 16.5; P = 0.009) than those with BMD z-score >-2. In total, 59% of children with BMI z-score <-0.5 had moderate-severe osteopenia and only 18% of those with higher z-scores. Multivariate logistic regression identified BMI z-score as the sole risk factor (OR 1.28 [95% CI 1.08-1.52], P = 0.005). BMI z-score ≥-0.5 excludes osteopenia with a sensitivity 87%, specificity 49%, NPV 82%, and PPV 59%. CONCLUSIONS Osteopenia was found in nearly half of children with newly onset CD. BMI z-score <-0.5 should prompt referral to DXA screening.

Abstract
The increase in incidences of pediatric Crohn's Disease (CD) worldwide has been strongly linked with dietary shifts towards a Westernized diet, ultimately leading to altered gut microbiota and disturbance in intestinal immunity and the metabolome. Multiple clinical studies in children with CD have demonstrated the high efficacy of nutritional therapy with exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) to induce remission with an excellent safety profile. However, EEN is poorly tolerated, limiting its compliance and clinical application. This has spiked an interest in the development of alternative and better-tolerated nutritional therapy strategies. Several nutritional therapies have now been designed not only to treat the nutritional deficiencies seen in children with active CD but also to correct dysbiosis and reduce intestinal inflammation. In this review, we report the most recent insights regarding nutritional strategies in children with active CD: EEN, partial enteral nutrition (PEN), Crohn's disease exclusive diet (CDED), and CD treatment-with-eating diet (CD-TREAT). We describe their setup, efficacy, safety, and (dis)advantages as well as some of their potential mechanisms of action and perspectives. A better understanding of different nutritional therapeutic options and their mechanisms will yield better and safer management strategies for children with CD and may address the barriers and limitations of current strategies in children.

Abstract
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBDs) are gastrointestinal disorders characterized by chronic, relapsing inflammation, with growing incidence worldwide over the last decades and distinctive features in the pediatric age. An increasing body of evidence indicates that gut microbiota plays a major role in inflammatory disorders, including IBDs. In this review we will discuss the most recent evidences on dysbiotic changes associated with gut inflammation, as well as environmental and genetic factors contributing to IBD pathogenesis, with a focus on the peculiarities of the pediatric age.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) refer to a group of disorders characterized by inflammation in the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract, which mainly comprises Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). IBDs are characterized by inflammation of the intestinal mucosa, are highly debilitating, and are without a definitive cure. Their pathogenesis has not yet been fully elucidated; however, it is assumed that genetic, immunological, and environmental factors are involved. People affected by IBDs have relapses, and therapeutic regimens are not always able to keep symptoms in remission over the long term. Natural products emerge as an alternative for the development of new drugs; bioactive compounds are promising in the treatment of several disorders, among them those that affect the gastrointestinal tract, due to their wide structural diversity and biological activities. This review compiles 12 terpenes with intestinal anti-inflammatory activity evaluated in animal models and in vitro studies. The therapeutic approach to IBDs using terpenes acts basically to prevent oxidative stress, combat dysbiosis, restore intestinal permeability, and improve the inflammation process in different signaling pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional support is very important in the treatment of Paediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). The role of the Mediterranean Diet (MD) has been understudied in children with IBD. The aims of this study were to assess the dietary intakes of IBD children in comparison with healthy controls (HCs), their adherence to MD; and the relationship between inflammation and dietary behaviors. METHODS Paediatric IBD patients in clinical remission and HCs were enrolled. The nutritional status and adherence to the Mediterranean Diet was evaluated through a 3-day food diary and the Mediterranean Diet Quality Index for Children and Adolescents (KIDMED). RESULTS The analysis of food diaries showed a significantly higher kilocalorie intake in IBD patients compared to HCs (p = 0.012), an increase in carbohydrates (p = 0.015) and in protein intake (p = 0.024). Both IBD and HCs have an intermediate adherence to MD. The comparison between Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients showed significant difference in protein intake in CD patients (p = 0.047), as well as for vitamin D (p = 0.044) and iron intake (p = 0.023). Interestingly; in IBD patients we found a significant association between adherence to MD and a low level of fecal calprotectin (p = 0.027). CONCLUSION Children with IBD in remission have a sub-optimal food intake compared to HCs. MD seems to correlate to decreased intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
Epidemiological an clinical observations as well as results from animal studies indicate that nutrition can play a role in the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Exclusive enteral nutrition therapy represents an example for modulating inflammatory responses solely through diet modification. Therefore, caretakers, patients, families, doctors and nutritionists seek for more dietary options to control IBD. These options include partial enteral nutrition therapy as for example the socalled Crohn's disease exclusion diet. The following statement summarizes existing data and provides recommendations for the current management of enteral nutrition therapy in pediatric Crohn's disease.

Abstract
Diet and nutrition are known to play key roles in many chronic gastrointestinal diseases, regarding both pathogenesis and therapeutic possibilities. A strong correlation between symptomatology, disease activity and eating habits has been observed in many common diseases, both organic and functional, such as inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. New different dietary approaches have been evaluated in order improve patients’ symptoms, modulating the type of sugars ingested, the daily amount of fats or the kind of metabolites produced in gut. Even if many clinical studies have been conducted to fully understand the impact of nutrition on the progression of disease, more studies are needed to test the most promising approaches for different diseases, in order to define useful guidelines for patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapsing immune-mediated disease of the intestinal tract. Although its prevalence is reportedly lower in Asia than in Western countries, the rapid increase in the incidence of IBD has drawn attention to its etiology, including genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Specifically, recent studies concerning dietary treatments and intestinal microbiota suggest that these factors may interact with the immune system, and the imbalance of this relationship may lead to immune dysregulation in IBD. Changes in diet or alterations in the composition of the intestinal microbiota may be associated with the increasing incidence of IBD in Asia. Here, we aim to review recent studies on the role of diet and intestinal microbiota in IBD pathogenesis and the results of the investigations performed to modulate these factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE The evidence for an association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and obesity is conflicting. Therefore, we set out to review the body mass index (BMI) at presentation of IBD to understand if the rise of the obesity rate in the general population, lead to an increase of obesity in patients with IBD at the time of diagnosis. METHODS Retrospective review of all patients with IBD seen at Children's Hospital and Medical Center from January 1st 2010 to December 31st 2014. From the initial visit and endoscopy, we obtained: age; sex; BMI; disease phenotype; disease severity. RESULTS We had a total of 95 patients, 35 patients were excluded due to incomplete data or referral being made after diagnosis was made. 28 were males and 32 were females, Age range was 2-17 years. A 37 had Crohn's disease, 19 ulcerative colitis, and 4 indeterminate colitis. Disease severity in 19 cases was mild, 29 moderate and 12 severe. BMI distribution was as follows-obese (5.0%), overweight (6.7%), normal weight (65.0%), mild malnutrition (8.3%), moderate malnutrition (15.0%), severe malnutrition (1.7%). CONCLUSION Our data is consistent with other series. Showing most children had a normal BMI, regardless of disease severity or phenotypes. One confounding factor is the possibility of delay in referral to GI. This could mean some obese children may fall in the normal BMI range at the time of diagnosis due to ongoing weight loss. Future studies should include prospective cohort studies, comparing incidence of IBD in obese and non-obese patients, severity at presentation, duration of symptoms, and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been a worldwide increase in the reported incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children over the past 2-3 decades. The hepatobiliary (HB) manifestations of IBD have been well-studied in children in industrialized and developed countries but are infrequently reported in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) such as Egypt.
AIM To determine the prevalence of the HB manifestations in a cohort of Egyptian children with IBD.
METHODS This cross-sectional observational study was carried out over a period of 6 mo (between June 2013 to December 2013) at the Paediatric Hepatology and Gastroenterology Units of Cairo University Children's Hospital, which is the largest paediatric tertiary care centre in the country.
RESULTS The study included 48 patients with confirmed IBD based upon clinical, laboratory, endoscopic and histopathological features, 29 (60.4%) were male. Twenty-four patients (50%) had ulcerative colitis (UC), 11 (22.9%) had Crohn's disease (CD) and 13 (27.1%) had unclassified-IBD (IBD-U), which was formerly known as indeterminate colitis. The mean age of the patients at the time of presentation was 8.14 (± SD 4.02) years and the mean age at the time of study enrolment was 10.16 (± SD 4.19) years. All patients were screened for HB manifestations by physical examination, liver function tests, imaging and liver biopsy when indicated. HB disorders were confirmed in 13 patients (27.1%). Transaminases were elevated in 3 patients (6.3%). Two patients (4.2%) had elevated biliary enzymes (one was diagnosed as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and the other was diagnosed with PSC/autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome and the third patient had hepatitis C virus infection. Ten patients (20.8%) had bright echogenic liver on ultrasound suggesting fatty infiltration as a sequel of malnutrition or medication toxicity.
CONCLUSION The commonest HB disorders in Egyptian children with IBD were abnormal liver function tests, fatty infiltration and PSC. These HB manifestations in paediatric patients in LMIC may be relatively more common than in industrialized countries. Therefore, IBD patients in LMIC should be meticulously screened for liver disease to allow prompt diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Hospitalizations are a time when providers often have uncertainty about what to feed patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). While there are many trials evaluating the role of diet in the management of IBD, the role of diet for the hospitalized patient is less clear. The hospitalization may serve as an opportunity to educate patients about the role of diet, try different diets, and develop dietary recommendations for after discharge. Here, we review the literature for dietary considerations during hospitalizations and acute settings, as well as upon discharge. Patients with IBD benefit from screening and nutritional support for malnutrition and nutritional deficiencies. Enteral nutrition and exclusion diets are promising as induction and maintenance therapies, but no specific recommendations during hospitalization for adult patients are available currently. There are very few reasons to enforce bowel rest or clear liquids other than bowel obstruction, uncontrolled sepsis, or need for urgent or emergent surgery; most patients - including many with penetrating or stricturing disease - benefit from feeding in whichever capacity is tolerated, with enteral and parenteral nutrition used as needed to reach nutritional goals. Future studies are needed to define how the use of different diets can influence the outcomes of patients hospitalized for IBD.

Abstract
Objectives: To review the literature on oral and enteral nutrition therapy and
investigate the evidence of its efficacy as a treatment, as well as in
preventing relapses and reducing symptoms of inflammatory bowel diseases in
the pediatric population. Data source: We performed a bibliographic search in the PubMed, Web of Science, and Latin
American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (Literatura
Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde - Lilacs)
databases, using the keywords “inflammatory bowel disease,” “diet,” and
“diet therapy” in English and Portuguese, with filters for pediatric studies
published in the previous five years. Data summary: We selected 16 articles for this study, nine on exclusive and/or partial
enteral nutrition and seven on modified oral diets, such as the specific
carbohydrate diet (SCD) and the Crohn’s Disease exclusion diet (CDED). The
studies found evaluated the anthropometric profile of patients and the
inflammatory profile of diseases in children before and after the
introduction of each specific nutrition therapy. All interventions presented
positive changes in these parameters; however, the results were inconclusive
regarding the efficacy of SCD and CDED in the treatment and prevention of
relapses. Conclusions: Exclusive enteral nutrition has proven to be effective in inducing remission
of Crohn’s Disease, and the use of partial enteral nutrition for maintenance
treatment has shown promising results. Other modified oral diets are
inconclusive concerning their effectiveness, requiring further randomized
controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
Assessment of vitamin and trace element status (VTE) is important in the clinical management of the sick child. In this position paper, we present the various assessment methods available to the clinical practitioner, and critically discuss pitfalls with interpretation of their results. There are 4 main approaches to assess the VTE body status of an individual patient including clinical examination, dietary assessment, and measurement of direct and indirect biomarkers of VTE in biological samples. Clinical signs of VTE deficiencies usually present only when body stores are substantially depleted and are often difficult to detect or differentiate from other nonnutrient-related causes. In isolation, dietary assessment of micronutrients can be inaccurate and imprecise, in disease and in individual patient assessment but may be useful to complement findings from other VTE assessment methods. Use of biomarkers is the most common approach to assess VTE status in routine practice but in the presence of systemic inflammatory response and in the absence of appropriate paediatric reference intervals, interpretation of biomarker results might be challenging and potentially mislead clinical practice. The use of a multimodal approach, including clinical examination, dietary assessment, and laboratory biomarkers is proposed as the optimal way to ascertain the VTE status of individual patients. In the presence of acute inflammatory conditions, VTE measurements in plasma should be replaced by biomarkers not affected by systemic inflammatory response or delayed until inflammatory state is resolved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Exclusive enteral nutrition induces remission, improves bone health and growth in paediatric Crohn's disease (CD) patients, but is highly demanding for patients. We investigated efficacy of partial enteral nutrition (PEN) on bone health, growth and course in CD patients and assessed microbial and metabolic changes induced by PEN. METHODS We performed a two centre, non-randomized controlled intervention study in quiescent CD patients aged <19 years. Patients in intervention group received a liquid formula providing ~25% of daily energy for one year. At baseline, after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, we collected data on bone, muscle (peripheral quantitative computertomography), anthropometry, disease activity (weighted paediatric CD activity index), metabolomic profile (liquid chromatography mass spectrometry), and faecal microbiome (16S rRNA gene sequencing). RESULTS Of 41 CD patients, 22 received the intervention (PEN) (mean age 15.0 ± 1.9 years, 50% male), 19 served as controls (non-PEN) (12.8 ± 3.1 years, 58% male). At baseline, mean bone quality was comparable to reference population with no improvement during the intervention. Relapse rate was low (8/41, PEN 4/22 and non-PEN 4/19, ns). PEN was not associated with microbiota community changes (beta diversity) but significantly reduced species diversity. Metabolome changes with upregulation of phosphatidylcholines in PEN patients are likely related to lipid and fatty acid composition of the formula. PEN significantly improved growth in a subgroup with Tanner stage 1-3. CONCLUSION In our cohort of paediatric CD patients, PEN did not affect bone health but improved growth in patients with a potential to grow.

Partial enteral nutrition induces clinical and endoscopic remission in active pediatric Crohn's disease: results of a prospective cohort study. Eur J Pediatr 2020; 179:431-438.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate rates of clinical remission, endoscopic remission, and mucosal healing after a 6-week treatment period with partial enteral nutrition (PEN) and to compare them to those obtained by standard exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) treatment in children with active Crohn's disease (CD). Twenty-five patients with active CD (median age 13.6 years, range 3.6-18.0) were recruited to either PEN (n = 12) or EEN (n = 13) treatment groups. The PEN group received 75% of their dietary needs from a polymeric formula plus one meal per day from an anti-inflammatory diet (AID). Patients were assessed at weeks 0, 1, 3, and 6 using clinical and laboratory parameters. Endoscopic assessment was performed at induction and week 6. On intention to treat analysis, clinical remission (Pediatric CD Activity Index < 10) was achieved in 69.2% and 75.0% of EEN and PEN patients, respectively (p = 0.999). The endoscopic remission (Simple Endoscopic Score for CD (SES-CD) ≤ 2) rates were 45.5% in both groups, while mucosal healing rates (SES-CD = 0) were 45.5% with EEN and 27.3% with PEN (p = 0.659).Conclusion: The results of our prospective pilot study suggest that PEN, allowing one meal from AID, could be as effective as EEN in inducing clinical and endoscopic remission in children with active CD. However, larger randomized controlled studies are warranted to confirm our findings.Trial registration: This clinical trial was registered under the number ClinicalTrials.govidentifier: NCT03176875.What is Known:• Exclusive enteral nutrition is a first-line treatment in active pediatric Crohn's disease; however, patients often find it difficult to adhere to.• Exclusive enteral nutrition is more effective than corticosteroids in achieving mucosal healing.What is New:• This is the first prospective study on partial enteral nutrition in active pediatric Crohn's disease, evaluating not only clinical, but also endoscopic remission.• A novel approach of partial enteral nutrition that allows one meal per day from an anti-inflammatory diet was as effective as exclusive enteral nutrition in inducing clinical and endoscopic remission in active Crohn's disease.

Abstract
Uses of nutritional therapies for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are of tremendous interest to the lay and professional communities. This interest currently outweighs the scientific basis for deciding on a particular therapy for any given patient. Some nutritional therapies have credible reports, in peer-review journals, validating their use for some patients. The broad pediatric gastroenterology community in the United States has, however, been unable or unwilling to agree on the details necessary to disseminate the most effective therapies with adequate reliability and validity to implement these interventions successfully. The well-established importance of the appropriate use of nutritional interventions for the treatment of undernutrition and maintenance of optimal nutrition is not an issue. A consensus and widely applicable solution for nutrition as therapy for IBD is, however, not imminent. In the interim, we aim to help the science-based reader to evaluate manuscripts appearing in our journals and to use this information to make rational, informed therapeutic decisions. We outline the current limited evidence base and make recommendations to advance the field of nutritional therapy in IBD.

Chronic gastrointestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, malabsorption syndromes (e.g., intestinal lymphangiectasia, celiac disease, congenital chloride diarrhea, cystic fibrosis), and postsubtotal gastrectomy state or short-bowel syndrome after extensive bowel resection are related to poor bone health in pediatric patients due to increased risks of low bone mineral density, osteoporosis, and fractures. The pathophysiology of abnormal bone health in pediatric gastrointestinal diseases may present from inflammation to malabsorption. In children with chronic gastrointestinal diseases at high risk of poor bone health, routine evaluation using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and appropriate prevention or treatment strategies are needed.

Abstract
Purpose: A growing body of scientific evidence supports the role of food and diet in the pathogenesis and management of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). However, little is known about the role of food and diet from the perspectives of pediatric patients and their parents. This study aimed to explore how children and adolescents with IBD and their parents coped with the illness through food and diet in their daily lives. Methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews with 28 children and adolescents with IBD, 26 parents and one grandparent. Results: Two major themes, dietary strategies and family food practices, were identified through thematic analysis. There were three types of dietary strategies: food avoidance and moderation; following a specific diet; and healthy eating. For family food practices, two subthemes were identified: impact on grocery shopping, meal planning, and cooking; and maintaining routine and normality. Conclusions: Our findings have important implications for the clinical care of pediatric IBD. Notably, IBD not only influenced the food practices of the pediatric patients, but also their parents and other family members. Healthcare professionals should consider the family unit when giving nutritional advice or developing nutritional guidelines. Personalized nutritional counselling and ongoing nutritional assessment are also warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition, commonly observed in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and is attributed to multiple causes. The added energy costs of growth in the child and adolescent with IBD are an additional risk factor. METHODS The aim of the study was to perform a cross-sectional comparison of nutritional parameters in IBD between pediatric and adult cases. RESULTS We found that prevalence of undernutrition (low body mass index) and hypoalbuminemia was not different in pediatric, compared with adult patients. Anemia and iron deficiency were more often observed in pediatric subjects, compared with adults (59.1% vs 36.9%, respectively, P < 0.0001; and 37.9% vs 25.3%, P < 0.002). Vitamin B12 deficiency was significantly less common in the pediatric than in the adult group (5.4% vs 19.4%, P < 0.0001). Elevated C-reactive protein was more frequent in pediatric compared with adult cases (49.8% vs 38.4%, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Patients with active Crohn's disease were more likely to be undernourished in both pediatric and adult populations. In both groups, predicators of undernutrition included low albumin levels (odds ratio [OR], 2.53; P < 0.006) and active disease (OR, 1.99; P < 0.03). Our results call for close surveillance of nutritional status for IBD patients, regardless of age.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises a group of chronic, intestinal inflammatory disorders, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. IBD is characterized by periods of relapse and remission. Long-term progressive intestinal inflammation can result in severe and devastating complications, such as intestinal strictures and/or fistulae. Immune suppressive medications with potent side effects are often used to control inflammation and limit disease activity. Laboratory tests guide various decisions in clinical management of IBD. We discuss tests used to diagnose IBD, assess for relapse or remission, monitor the effectiveness of therapeutic regimen, screen for the maintenance of health, and diagnose or prevent complications.

Abstract
Diet is regarded as one of the important environmental factors triggering inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Many IBD patients avoid numerous types of foods in fear of disease exacerbation. The aim of the study was to investigate dietary beliefs and food avoidance among pediatric patients with IBD. This questionnaire-based study was conducted in three University-affiliated children's hospitals in Poland. Data were collected from parents of children who were diagnosed with IBD. A total of 155 parents of IBD patients participated in the survey: 104 (67.1%) had a child with Crohn's disease and 51 (32.9%) with ulcerative colitis. Parents of older children and those with longer disease duration predicted diet being considered one of the causative agents of IBD, and differences were statistically significant (P = .01 and P = .04, respectively). Also, patients with a shorter history of disease rarely shared food with other family members (P = .02). In total, 61.5% of patients avoided some kind of food in fear of disease flares. In the parent's opinion, the food the children liked but avoided included fried dishes, sweets (e.g., chocolate, cookies, cakes, candies, jellies), and fast food. Due to their dietary beliefs, parents of children with IBD commonly introduced dietary restrictions for their offspring. Frequent and unjustified food avoidance may influence not only nutritional status but also general well-being of pediatric patients. Our results underscore the urgent need for IBD patients and parents of ill children to receive reliable dietary advice based on strong scientific evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Growth impairment is common in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Nevertheless, a controversy exists regarding disease impact on anthropometric measures in the long term. Thus, we aimed to investigate the impact of IBD on anthropometric measures, including weight, height, and body mass index (BMI), during late adolescence in a cross-sectional, population-based study. METHODS A total of 1,144,213 Jewish Israeli adolescents who underwent a general health examination from 2002 to 2016 at a median age (interquartile range) of 17.1 (16.9-17.3) years were included. Inflammatory bowel disease cases were stratified into Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Patients were also subgrouped based on age at IBD diagnosis. RESULTS Overall, 2372 cases of IBD were identified out of 1,144,213 persons examined (0.2%). Crohn's disease accounted for 68% of IBD cases. Males and females with CD (but not with UC) had significantly lower weight and BMI compared with controls. Differences in height at late adolescence were not statistically significant for either disease compared with controls (females: 162 cm vs 161.7 cm vs 161.5 cm; males: 174 cm vs 173.7 cm vs 173.6 cm for controls, UC, and CD, respectively). In a subgroup analysis, patients with CD diagnosed at age <14 years were significantly shorter than controls (males: 172.7 cm vs 174 cm; P = 0.001; females: 160.6 cm vs 162; P = 0.008). This pattern was not noted in UC patients. CONCLUSIONS Adolescents with CD were leaner compared with the general population. No overall difference was noted in height at late adolescence. Younger age at diagnosis was associated with reduced height in CD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the route of exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) delivery (orally or via nasogastric (NG) tube) and type of polymeric formula (with taste vs tasteless and isocaloric vs hypercaloric) on the disease outcome and nutritional status in children with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS This was a single center retrospective study which included all CD patients whose active disease at diagnosis was treated with EEN in the period from October 2007 to November 2017. All patients received polymeric formula orally or through a NG tube, which was based on the physicians and child's preference. RESULTS A total of 92 CD patients were included in the study (mean age 13.6 ± 3.0 years; 45.7% female). Overall, 42 (45.7%) patients received EEN via NG tube until the end of the EEN period. Remission was achieved in 71 (77.2%) children. There was no difference in the EEN failure status, remission duration, inflammatory markers, and weight gain at the end of the EEN period between oral intake and NG tube groups. None of the factors including age, disease location, type of formula (with taste vs tasteless and isocaloric vs hypercaloric) and mode of delivery (orally vs through NG tube for the whole duration of EEN) demonstrated an association with EEN failure. CONCLUSION This study failed to demonstrate an effect of the route of EEN delivery and the characteristics of the polymeric formula on the outcome of treatment in pediatric patients with CD.

Abstract
Purpose According to the WHO vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) belongs to the microorganisms for which new antibiotics are urgently needed. Depending on the type of vancomycin resistance vanA gene VRE is differentiated from vanB VRE and other types. In this retrospective analysis the results of VRE surveillance performed at a German tertiary hospital with approximately 1,200 beds between 2013 and 2017 are shown. Patients and methods Rectal screening swabs were taken at admission and once per week on the early rehabilitation ward of Ingolstadt Hospital (ERWIN) but not at other wards. The number of VRE colonized patients was evaluated by using appropriate computer software (LabCentre, Hybase). The Hybase program was also used to find out the number of Saccharomyces boulardii and multi-susceptible Escherichia coli Nissle in blood cultures of patients at ERWIN. The mechanism of vancomycin resistance was examined by PCR and clonality of VRE strains was analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Results Between 2013 and 2015 the number of VRE increased from 30 to 78 per year whereas in 2016 and 2017 the number declined to 51. Systematic analysis of the laboratory data revealed that this increase was driven by oligoclonal transmission of vanB VRE on ERWIN until August 2016 despite performing intensified infection control measures. However, afterward the number of VRE decreased at ERWIN and subsequently at the other wards. While searching for the reason behind this beneficial development we noticed that at ERWIN, patients treated with antibiotics received two probiotic medications simultaneously (S. boulardii, E. coli Nissle) for the duration of the antibiotic therapy plus an additional 2 days. There was no indication of side effects caused by these microorganisms, particularly no infections. Conclusion Application of S. boulardii and E. coli Nissle was safe and associated with reduced transmission of VRE from patient to patient at ERWIN. Therefore, in our setting, probiotic treatment of patients receiving antibiotics contributed to the increase of patients’ safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This systematic review critically analyzes the current research on micronutrient deficiency in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and synthesizes these data to provide evidence-based guidelines for nutritional surveillance in this population. METHODS We searched 5 databases (Ovid Medline, PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library) for studies evaluating micronutrients in patients with IBD using the following inclusion criteria: 1) original research, 2) published 1996 or later; 3) published in English; 4) human subjects; and 5) containing pediatric data. Studies were reviewed and included based on the strength of research methods. Data on the prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies in pediatric patients with IBD and risk factors for micronutrient deficiency in these patients were extracted from included studies and compared and discussed in preparation of the proposed guidelines and manuscript. RESULTS A total of 39 studies were included in the final review. The data presented in these studies show that iron deficiency and vitamin D deficiency are common in pediatric patients with IBD. Vitamin B12 and folate deficiency are rare. Zinc deficiency, while not common, occurs at a higher rate in patients with Crohn's disease than in healthy controls. There was limited data on vitamins A, E, and C, and selenium, but deficiency of these micronutrients seems rare. CONCLUSIONS We recommend annual surveillance of iron and vitamin D in pediatric patients with IBD regardless of disease activity or phenotype. Zinc should be monitored annually in patients with Crohn's disease. There is insufficient evidence to support routine screening for other micronutrient deficiencies.

Abstract
While considerable progress has been made in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), alternative options are constantly sought by adult patients as well as frustrated parents of young patients. These include dietary modifications, food supplements, and, more recently, probiotics.Their potential use is based on the demonstrated role of the altered mucosal immune response to bacterial agents that eventually leads to the chronic intestinal inflammation that characterized IBD. In fact, probiotics might conceivably be beneficial due to multiple mechanisms: stimulation of anti-inflammatory cytokines, inhibition of inflammatory cytokines, strengthening of intestinal barrier, and antagonistic action on pathogens. Such mechanisms have been largely extensively investigated in animal models both in vitro and in vivo.Despite such premise, a relatively scarce number of clinical trials are available, and of them only a handful in pediatric age. Overall, available evidence is very disappointing in the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD), where no recommendation for probiotic use can be made. In ulcerative colitis (UC), on the other hand, there is clinical evidence of efficacy for some specific strains and especially for multi-strain preparations.In summary, more data are needed very likely to yield a better understanding on what strains and in what doses should be used in different specific clinical settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-dose oral vitamin D (stoss) is a novel treatment in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Vitamin D supplementation may have benefits in IBD beyond bone health including reduced disease activity and improvements in inflammatory markers. The aim of this study was to retrospectively assess the efficacy, safety and impact on disease activity of single oral high-dose vitamin D3 therapy in New Zealand (NZ) children with IBD and vitamin D deficiency. METHODS In this retrospective chart review, children with IBD and vitamin D deficiency [serum 25-OH vitamin D level (25-OHD) <50 nmol/L] in Christchurch, NZ, who were managed with single high-dose vitamin D3 therapy were identified. Measurements of serum 25-OHD, calcium and standard serum inflammatory markers prior to and up to 6 months following stoss therapy were extracted from patient records. Disease activity was also defined using the Pediatric Crohn's Disease (CD) Activity Index (PCDAI) at time points before and 3 months following stoss. RESULTS Twenty-eight doses of stoss were given to 23 children, aged 3-16 years. Mean 25-OHD levels increased after stoss therapy from 39 nmol/L (95% CI: 37-42 nmol/L) at baseline to 189 nmol/L (148-231 nmol/L) at 1-2 months (P<0.001). All children with 1 month levels measured achieved 25-OHD >75 nmol/L. One child had a serum calcium of 2.7 (normal range, 2.2 to 2.6 mmol/L) 2 weeks after treatment, which normalized on repeat testing 10 days later. PCDAI scores, mean platelet count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C reactive protein (CRP) all reduced significantly from baseline to 3 months following stoss therapy. CONCLUSIONS Single high-dose oral vitamin D therapy was used successfully and safely to manage vitamin D deficiency in these children with IBD. An improvement in inflammatory markers and disease activity scores also occurred following stoss therapy.

Abstract
AIM Maintenance enteral nutrition (MEN) is routinely used in Paediatric Crohn's Disease (CD) to prolong remission although there is limited evidence for efficacy and a lack of formal guidelines. This study surveyed patients', parents' and professional experience with MEN. METHODS Two questionnaires were developed to survey the experience of MEN; (i) Patients/Parents (children >10 years of age aimed to complete independently) and (ii) Dietitians. Questionnaires were sent to families prescribed MEN after exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) between 2015-17 (n = 77) and dietitians working in paediatric regional centres in UK (n = 23). RESULTS Response rate to the questionnaires was 53% patients, 62% parents and 83% dietitians. Patients/parents reported medical/dietetic advice to be the primary factor affecting compliance, 30% patients reported side effects. Fifty-six per cent of patients/58% parents stated a preference for dietary advice rather than MEN. Dietetic responses indicated 79% used MEN after EEN as standard procedure and 79% did not have exit criteria for MEN. Sixty-eight per cent perceived the taste was the primary factor affecting patient compliance. CONCLUSION Patients' perception of the usefulness of MEN differs to professionals. This study highlights the extensive practice of MEN after EEN in clinical remission, which may not be nutritionally indicated. Patient preference is for dietary advice rather than MEN.

Abstract
Etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is not yet completely understood, but it is hypothesized that a disruption of the immune tolerance to gut microbiota, due to several potential factors like an abnormal gut microbiota composition and activity, may lead to IBD occurrence. Manipulation of the intestinal microbiota is an attractive target for the management of IBD, and probiotics could be useful to influence the disease's course. However, the existing literature on the usefulness of probiotics in IBD is relatively limited. At present, there is no evidence of efficacy for any bacterial strain in the induction or maintenance of remission in pediatric Crohn's disease, while there is limited evidence for the use of VSL#3 and Lactobacillus reuteri ATCC 55730, in addition to standard therapy, for the induction of remission in pediatric ulcerative colitis. Moreover, current data assessing the therapeutic efficacy of probiotics in IBD do not fulfill evidence-based standards, with long-term maintenance studies and larger prospective randomized controlled trials still lacking.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric use of complementary medicine (CM) is common and offers numerous research questions about diverse therapies and conditions. Although research priorities for pediatric CM have been identified, there was a need to update in light of the rapid evolution of the field. METHODS Building on previous work, we conducted an international, consensus-based 4-step modified Delphi process to develop and refine a pediatric CM research agenda, including on-line questionnaires and an in-person meeting. Participants included health care professionals, researchers, and educators. RESULTS We received 376 responses; participants included conventional and CM providers, researchers, educators, administrators, and policy-makers from 15 countries (Australia, Bangladesh, Belgium, Canada, China, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Sri Lanka, The Netherlands, United Kingdom, and United States). While it was recognized that each region must set their own priorities based on use, access, and expertise, a "minimum set" for a pediatric CM research agenda was identified. After three rounds of surveys, participants identified the highest priorities for pediatric CM research as: (i) safety of CM therapies for infants, children, and adolescents; (ii) conditions for which CM use is highly prevalent and for which conventional medicine lacks safe, cost-effective therapies; iii) therapies/therapists to be examined for quality and reproducibility of interventions, comparative and cost effectiveness, dose, etc.; and iv) identification of relevant outcomes and outcome measurement tools. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study identify that "first do no harm" is the leading research priority for pediatric CM research, followed by more research on effectiveness of CM therapies for conditions not safely and effectively treated with conventional care. In order to improve pediatric health care, interdisciplinary collaborative approaches are needed between CM and conventional providers and researchers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The contemporary management of ambulatory ulcerative colitis (UC) continues to be challenging with ∼20% of children needing a colectomy within childhood years. We thus aimed to standardize daily treatment of pediatric UC and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)-unclassified through detailed recommendations and practice points. METHODS These guidelines are a joint effort of the European Crohn's and Colitis Organization (ECCO) and the Paediatric IBD Porto group of European Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN). An extensive literature search with subsequent evidence appraisal using robust methodology was performed before 2 face-to-face meetings. All 40 included recommendations and 86 practice points were endorsed by 43 experts in Paediatric IBD with at least an 88% consensus rate. RESULTS These guidelines discuss how to optimize the use of mesalamine (including topical), systemic and locally active steroids, thiopurines and, for more severe disease, biologics. The use of other emerging therapies and the role of surgery are also covered. Algorithms are provided to aid therapeutic decision-making based on clinical assessment and the Paediatric UC Activity Index (PUCAI). Advice on contemporary therapeutic targets incorporating the use of calprotectin and the role of therapeutic drug monitoring are presented, as well as other management considerations around pouchitis, extraintestinal manifestations, nutrition, growth, psychology, and transition. A brief section on disease classification using the PIBD-classes criteria and IBD-unclassified is also part of these guidelines. CONCLUSIONS These guidelines provide a guide to clinicians managing children with UC and IBD-unclassified management to provide modern management strategies while maintaining vigilance around appropriate outcomes and safety issues.

Abstract
Major pharmaceutical advancements in the field of inflammatory bowel diseases benefit to children and adolescents affected with this progressive chronic condition. Scientific organisations such as ESPGHAN and ECCO actively publish guidelines related to the many aspects of care from these patients. Clinical studies and long-term prospective registries in the appropriate age groups are crucial to support an evidence based strategy.
