Drugs Effective for Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs or Aspirin-induced Small Bowel Injuries: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. J Clin Gastroenterol 2024:00004836-990000000-00315.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The frequency of small bowel (SB) injuries has increased due to the increased use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or aspirin. This study was a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare drugs effective for SB injuries caused by NSAIDs or aspirin use. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane registries for randomized controlled trials through February 2023. The extracted data included changes in the number of erosions or ulcers in the jejunum or ileum observed through capsule endoscopy in patients taking NSAIDs or aspirin and administration of various mucoprotectants. We investigated the therapeutic or preventive efficacy of these drugs. The methodological bias was evaluated using Risk of Bias 2.0. RESULTS Eighteen randomized controlled trials of drugs effective for NSAIDs or aspirin-induced SB injuries were included and analyzed. The agents used to treat or prevent SB injuries were rebamipide, misoprostol, geranylgeranylacetone, and probiotics. In the meta-analysis, the mucoprotectants that showed a significant effect in treating NSAID users, who developed SB injuries, were misoprostol (mean difference: -9.88; 95% CI: -13.26 to -6.50). Meanwhile, the mucoprotectant that can prevent SB injuries caused by NSAIDs or aspirin in the general population was rebamipide (mean difference: -1.85; 95% CI: -2.74 to -0.96). CONCLUSIONS Misoprostol was effective in treating SB injuries caused by NSAIDs or aspirin (CRD42023410946).

Neutrophil extracellular trap formation and its implications in nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced small intestinal injury. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 39:1123-1133. [PMID: 38576269 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) damage the small intestine via neutrophil infiltration driven by the mucosal invasion of enterobacteria. The antimicrobial function of neutrophils is partially dependent on neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Excessive NET formation has been associated with several inflammatory diseases. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of NETs in NSAID-induced small intestinal damage using human samples and an experimental mouse model. METHODS Human small intestine specimens were obtained from NSAID users during double-balloon enteroscopy. Wild-type, protein arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) knockout, and antibiotic-treated mice were administered indomethacin to induce small intestinal injury. The expression of NET-associated proteins, including PAD4, citrullinated histone H3 (CitH3), cell-free DNA, and myeloperoxidase (MPO), was evaluated. RESULTS The double-positive stained area with CitH3 and MPO, which is specific for neutrophil-derived extracellular traps, was significantly high in the injured small intestinal mucosa of NSAID users. In a mouse model, small intestinal damage developed at 6 h after indomethacin administration, accompanied by increased mRNA levels of interleukin-1β and keratinocyte chemoattractant and elevated NET-associated protein levels of PAD4, CitH3, and MPO in small intestine and serum levels of cell-free DNA. Both genetic deletion and pharmacological inhibition of PAD4 attenuated this damage by reducing the mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines and NET-associated proteins. Furthermore, mice pretreated with antibiotics showed resistance to indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage, with less NET formation. CONCLUSION These results suggest that NETs aggravate NSAID-induced small intestinal injury. Therefore, NET inhibition could be a potential treatment for NSAID-induced small intestinal injury.

Abstract
A retrospective study in patients who underwent video capsule endoscopy (VCE) between 2006 and 2016 was conducted in the Clinic for gastroenterology and Hepatology, University Clinical Center of Serbia. A total of 245 patients underwent VCE. In 198 patients the indication was obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB), with 92 patients having overt and the other 106 occult bleeding. The remaining 47 patients underwent VCE due to suspected small bowel (SB) disease (i.e., Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, familial adenomatous polyposis, Peutz Jeghers syndrome, Crohn's disease, prolonged diarrhea, abdominal pain, congenital lymphangiectasia, protein-losing enteropathy, tumors, refractory celiac disease, etc.). VCE identified a source of bleeding in 38.9% of patients (in the obscure overt group in 48.9% of patients, and in the obscure occult group in 30.2% of patients). The most common findings were angiodysplasias, tumors, Meckel's diverticulum and Crohn's disease. In the smaller group of patients with an indication other than OGIB, 38.3% of patients had positive VCE findings. The most common indication is OGIB, and the best candidates are patients with overt bleeding; patients with IBD should be evaluated in this setting.

Abstract
Coeliac disease (CeD) is an immunological disease triggered by the consumption of gluten contained in food in individuals with a genetic predisposition. Diagnosis is based on the presence of small bowel mucosal atrophy and circulating autoantibodies (anti-type 2 transglutaminase antibodies). After diagnosis, patients follow a strict, life-long gluten-free diet. Although the criteria for diagnosis of this disease are well defined, the monitoring phase has been studied less and there is a lack of specific guidelines for this phase. To develop a set of clinical guidelines for CeD monitoring, we followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation methodology. Statements and recommendations with the level of evidence were developed and approved by the working group, which comprised gastroenterologists, pathologists, dieticians and biostatisticians. The proposed guidelines, endorsed by the North American and European coeliac disease scientific societies, make recommendations for best practices in monitoring patients with CeD based on the available evidence. The evidence level is low for many topics, suggesting that further research in specific aspects of CeD would be valuable. In conclusion, the present guidelines support clinicians in improving CeD treatment and follow-up and highlight novel issues that should be considered in future studies.

Abstract
The use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has negative effects on the gastrointestinal tract, but the proton pump inhibitors currently in use only protect against gastrointestinal disease and may even make NSAID-induced enteropathy worse. Therefore, new approaches to treating enteropathy are required. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of wheat peptides (WPs) against NSAID-induced intestinal damage in mice and their mechanism. Here, an in vivo mouse model was built to investigate the protective and reparative effects of different concentrations of WPs on NSAID-induced intestinal injury. WPs ameliorated NSAID-induced weight loss and small intestinal tissue damage in mice. WP treatment inhibited NSAID-induced injury leading to increased levels of oxidative stress and expression levels of inflammatory factors. WPs protected and repaired the integrity and permeability injury of the intestinal tight junction induced by NSAIDs. An in vitro Caco-2 cell model was built with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). WP pretreatment inhibited LPS-induced changes in the Caco-2 cell permeability and elevated the levels of oxidative stress. WPs inhibited LPS-induced phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways and reduced the expression of inflammatory factors. In addition, WPs increased tight junction protein expression, which contributed to improved intestinal epithelial dysfunction. Our results suggest that WPs can ameliorate NSAID-induced impairment of intestinal barrier functional integrity by improving intestinal oxidative stress levels and reducing inflammatory factor expression through inhibition of NF-κB p65 and MAPK signaling pathway activation. WPs can therefore be used as potential dietary supplements to reduce NSAID-induced injury of the intestine.

Abstract
Surfactants are a diverse group of compounds that share the capacity to adsorb at the boundary between distinct phases of matter. They are used as pharmaceutical excipients, food additives, emulsifiers in cosmetics, and as household/industrial detergents. This review outlines the interaction of surfactant-type excipients present in oral pharmaceutical dosage forms with the intestinal epithelium of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Many surfactants permitted for human consumption in oral products reduce intestinal epithelial cell viability in vitro and alter barrier integrity in epithelial cell monolayers, isolated GI tissue mucosae, and in animal models. This suggests a degree of mis-match for predicting safety issues in humans from such models. Recent controversial preclinical research also infers that some widely used emulsifiers used in oral products may be linked to ulcerative colitis, some metabolic disorders, and cancers. We review a wide range of surfactant excipients in oral dosage forms regarding their interactions with the GI tract. Safety data is reviewed across in vitro, ex vivo, pre-clinical animal, and human studies. The factors that may mitigate against some of the potentially abrasive effects of surfactants on GI epithelia observed in pre-clinical studies are summarised. We conclude with a perspective on the overall safety of surfactants in oral pharmaceutical dosage forms, which has relevance for delivery system development.

Abstract
The gut microbiome has been implicated in a multitude of human diseases, with emerging evidence linking its microbial diversity to osteoporosis. This review article will explore the molecular mechanisms underlying perturbations in the gut microbiome and their influence on osteoporosis incidence in individuals with chronic diseases. The relationship between gut microbiome diversity and bone density is primarily mediated by microbiome-derived metabolites and signaling molecules. Perturbations in the gut microbiome, induced by chronic diseases can alter bacterial diversity and metabolic profiles, leading to changes in gut permeability and systemic release of metabolites. This cascade of events impacts bone mineralization and consequently bone mineral density through immune cell activation. In addition, we will discuss how orally administered medications, including antimicrobial and non-antimicrobial drugs, can exacerbate or, in some cases, treat osteoporosis. Specifically, we will review the mechanisms by which non-antimicrobial drugs disrupt the gut microbiome's diversity, physiology, and signaling, and how these events influence bone density and osteoporosis incidence. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex interplay between orally administered drugs, the gut microbiome, and osteoporosis, offering new insights into potential therapeutic strategies for preserving bone health.

Abstract
Drugs are widely used to treat different diseases in modern medicine, but they are often associated with adverse events. Those located in the gastrointestinal tract are common and often mild, but they can be serious or life-threatening and determine the continuation of treatment. The stomach is often affected not only by drugs taken orally but also by those administered parenterally. Here, we review the mechanisms of damage, risk factors and specific endoscopic, histopathological and clinical features of those drugs more often involved in gastric damage, namely NSAIDs, aspirin, anticoagulants, glucocorticosteroids, anticancer drugs, oral iron preparations and proton pump inhibitors. NSAID- and aspirin-associated forms of gastric damage are widely studied and have specific features, although they are often hidden by the coexistence of Helicobacter pylori infection. However, the damaging effect of anticoagulants and corticosteroids or oral iron therapy on the gastric mucosa is controversial. At the same time, the increased use of new antineoplastic drugs, such as checkpoint inhibitors, has opened up a new area of gastrointestinal damage that will be seen more frequently in the near future. We conclude that there is a need to expand and understand drug-induced gastrointestinal damage to prevent and recognize drug-associated gastropathy in a timely manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises a group of chronic conditions characterized by relapsing and remitting inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The incidence is increasing worldwide, and the therapeutic options for management are expanding. Endoscopy is the gold standard investigation for diagnosis of IBD and for assessing mucosal healing, which is increasingly being used as a measure of disease control. However, it is an invasive procedure that is unpleasant for patients and expensive and time-consuming for hospitals. Fecal calprotectin has been shown to be an accurate surrogate marker of gastrointestinal inflammation in IBD. CONTENT Fecal calprotectin was initially used for the diagnosis of IBD but is now recognized as having a role in assisting in assessment of disease activity, prediction of relapse, and informing decisions around therapy and may help to minimize requirement for endoscopy. However, there are various preanalytical and analytical factors that can affect interpretation of the results; these need to be understood to optimize clinical care. SUMMARY Preanalytical and analytical factors that can potentially influence fecal calprotectin concentrations are examined, and an overview is provided of clinical situations in which fecal calprotectin is commonly measured.

Abstract
Antiplatelet drugs, as the cornerstone of the treatment of coronary heart disease, control the progression of the disease, but bring a higher risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Relevant guidelines recommend the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy. But for people at low risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, the harms associated with routine use of PPIs may far outweigh the benefits. PPIs increase the risk of lower gastrointestinal bleeding, inhibit the effect of antiplatelet drugs, impair vascular endothelial function, meanwhile induce hypomagnesemia, iron deficiency, vitamins D and K deficiency, etc. Eventually, PPIs may lead to an increase in cardiovascular events. However, the situation is that PPIs are often overused. This review elucidates the mechanisms by which PPIs increase cardiovascular events, thereby reminding clinicians to rationally prescribe PPIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND More evidence is needed on the use of NSAID based postoperative pain regimens for Crohn's disease (CD) and its association with recurrence. Our goal is to assess the impact of perioperative use of NSAIDs on endoscopic disease recurrence in patients with CD. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted. The primary outcome measured was endoscopic disease recurrence within 24 months of surgery, defined as a Rutgeerts score ≥ i2. RESULTS We identified 107 patients with CD that underwent index ileocolectomy with primary anastomosis between January 2009 and July 2019. Endoscopic disease recurrence was identified in 28 (26.2%) and clinical recurrence in 18 (16.8%) patients. Exposure to NSAIDs did not increase 24-month endoscopic recurrence risk (22.2% vs. 38.5% patients, p = 0.12). CONCLUSION In patients with CD undergoing elective ileocolic resection and primary ileocolic anastomosis, NSAID use in the perioperative period did not impact endoscopic or clinical disease recurrence rate.

The effect of rebamipide on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced gastro-enteropathy: a multi-center, randomized pilot study. Korean J Intern Med 2022; 37:1153-1166. [PMID: 36375487 PMCID: PMC9666262 DOI: 10.3904/kjim.2021.216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2021] [Accepted: 02/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly-used medications, and ailments such as arthritis or heart disease, require long-term use of these drugs, which can induce gastroenteropathy with bleeding and ulcers. This study investigated the associations between efficacy, safety, and gastrointestinal symptoms linked to rebamipide and proton pump inhibitor administration in patients requiring long-term NSAID use. METHODS This study was a multi-center, randomized, open-labeled, pilot design. RESULTS Thirty-three patients were included. Of these, 15 were included in the study group and 18 were in the control group. NSAID-induced gastric ulcers, which were the primary outcome of this study, did not occur in either the study or control group. Changes in the number of small bowel erosions and ulcers were -0.6 ± 3.06 in the study group and 1.33 ± 4.71 in the control group. The number of subjects with mucosal breaks (defined as multiple erosions and/or ulcers) was three (20%) in the study group and six (40%) in the control group (p = 0.427). No serious adverse events occurred in either group. However, dyspepsia and skin rashes occurred in six patients (31.58%) in the study group and 13 (65%) in the control group (p = 0.036). CONCLUSION Although statistically significant differences were not generated, possibly as a result of the small sample size, mucosal breaks observed via capsule endoscopy revealed that rebamipide was likely to be more effective than lansoprazole in preventing small intestine damage caused by NSAIDs. Furthermore, fewer side-effects emerged with rebamipide.

The Different Patterns of Over-the-Counter Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs or Analgesics Use in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and the General Population. Healthcare (Basel) 2022; 10:healthcare10102035. [PMID: 36292481 PMCID: PMC9602380 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare10102035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesics are the most commonly used drugs worldwide and their availability over-the-counter is increasing. The aim of this study was to examine the frequency of their use as well as the awareness of the associated risk of side effects in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared to the patients at general practice (GP) offices. We found that 88.5% of the CKD and 97.1% of the GP group used NSAIDs and/or analgesics (p < 0.0001). Paracetamol was chosen the most often by both study groups, but the proportion of patients taking paracetamol was significantly higher in the CKD group (p < 0.006). On the contrary, the proportion of patients taking ibuprofen was significantly higher in GP group (p < 0.0001). Furthermore, almost 37% of CKD and 60% of GP patients never consult with their doctor before taking NSAIDs or analgesics. The influence of advertisements on the decision to take these drugs was found to be marginal in both groups. In conclusion, the NSAIDs and/or analgesics use is very common. The differences between the studied cohorts in self-decision making and the type of drugs used between the studied cohorts warrant tailored educational approaches.

Abstract
In recent years, small intestine as a key target in the treatment of Inflammatory bowel disease caused by NSAIDs has become a hot topic. Sanguinarine (SA) is one of the main alkaloids in the Macleaya cordata extracts with strong pharmacological activity of anti-tumor, anti-inflammation and anti-oxidant. SA is reported to inhibit acetic acid-induced colitis, but it is unknown whether SA can relieve NSAIDs-induced small intestinal inflammation. Herein, we report that SA effectively reversed the inflammatory lesions induced by indomethacin (Indo) in rat small intestine and IEC-6 cells in culture. Our results showed that SA significantly relieved the symptoms and reversed the inflammatory lesions of Indo as shown in alleviation of inflammation and improvement of colon macroscopic damage index (CMDI) and tissue damage index (TDI) scores. SA decreased the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, MDA and LDH in small intestinal tissues and IEC-6 cells, but increased SOD activity and ZO-1 expression. Mechanistically, SA dose-dependently promoted the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 by decreasing Keap-1 level, but inhibited p65 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation in Indo-treated rat small intestine and IEC-6 cells. Furthermore, in SA treated cells, the colocalization between p-p65 and CBP in the nucleus was decreased, while the colocalization between Nrf2 and CBP was increased, leading to the movement of gene expression in the nucleus to the direction of anti-inflammation and anti-oxidation. Nrf2 silencing blocked the effects of SA. Together our results suggest that SA can significantly prevent intestinal inflammatory lesions induced by Indo in rats and IEC-6 cells through regulation of the Nrf2 pathway and NF-κBp65 pathway.

Decreased fecal calprotectin levels in Spondyloarthritis patients colonized by Blastocystis spp. Sci Rep 2022; 12:15840.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory systemic diseases mainly characterized by inflammation in the spine and/or peripheral joints. Although a link between SpA-pathogenesis, intestinal inflammation and gut dysbiosis has been proposed, studies have been focused on bacteria-host interactions and very little has been reported regarding intestinal parasites. Here, intestinal parasitic infection of 51 SpA-patients were evaluated and compared to healthy control individuals. No significant differences in the frequency of any parasite between SpA-patients and control individuals were found. Significantly higher levels of fecal calprotectin (FCP) were found in the SpA-patients compared to the control individuals. However, FCP levels were the same when comparing SpA-patients and control individuals, both colonized by Blastocystis spp. On the other hand, when comparing Blastocystis spp. colonized and Blastocystis spp. free SpA-patients, FCP levels were significantly higher in those Blastocystis spp. free. Without ignoring the small sample size as a study limitation, the results showed that in the SpA-patients colonized by Blastocystis spp., the FCP levels were significantly lower than those in the Blastocystis spp. free group and comparable to those in the control group. These findings seem to suggest a relationship between Blastocystis spp. and intestinal inflammation in SpA-patients, but studies intended to explore that interaction specifically should be designed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Anemia is a common complication of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, with a prevalence up to 60% in celiac disease (CeD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most prevalent form of anemia in these conditions, but chronic inflammation and vitamin B12 deficiency represent other common contributing mechanisms, especially in IBD. AREAS COVERED We discuss the pathogenesis of anemia in various medical GI disorders, the sometime problematic distinction between IDA, anemia of inflammation (AI) and the association of the two, and therapeutic and preventive measures that can be useful for the management of anemia in GI disorders. Unfortunately, with the exception of IDA and AI in IBD, large RCT concerning the treatment of anemia in GI disorders are lacking. EXPERT OPINION Anemia management strategies in GI disorders are outlined, with a focus on the main prevention, diagnostic, and therapeutic measures. Specific problems and situations such as the role of gluten-free diet for IDA treatment in CeD, the choice between oral and parenteral supplementation of iron or vitamin B12 in carential anemias, the use of endoscopic procedures to stop bleeding in intestinal angiodysplasia and preventive/treatment strategies for NSAID-associated GI bleeding are discussed.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY Diagnosing small bowel pathology is challenging, and the diagnostic yield of small bowel capsule endoscopy is highly variable. Faecal calprotectin is a non-invasive intestinal inflammation marker that could be used as a selection tool to identify patients who might benefit from small bowel capsule endoscopy and increase its diagnostic yield. This study aimed to investigate the value of faecal calprotectin in detecting small bowel lesions in an unselected patient population. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients who underwent small bowel capsule endoscopy at the University Hospital Basel and the University Medical Clinic Cantonal Hospital Baselland, Switzerland, between 2010 and 2018. Patients without faecal calprotectin testing were excluded from the analysis. The primary endpoint was the presence of a clinically significant small bowel finding. RESULTS Patients with positive faecal calprotectin results were more likely to have small bowel findings (66.7% vs 39.4%; P = 0.007). The optimal faecal calprotectin cut-off to identify clinically significant small bowel lesions was 63 μg/g with 78.3% (95% confidence interval: 66.7-87.9) sensitivity, 47.9% (33.3-62.8) specificity, 1.50 (1.1-2.0) positive and 0.45 (0.3-0.8) negative likelihood ratios, 68.4% (61.6-74.4) positive and 60.5% (47.3-72.4) negative predictive values, and 65.0% overall accuracy. Faecal calprotectin performed best in patients with suspected inflammatory bowel disease, with 66.7% (48.2-82.0) sensitivity, 70.6% (44.0-89.7) specificity, 2.27 (1.0-4.9) positive and 0.47 (0.3-0.8) negative likelihood ratios, 81.5% (67.0-90.5) positive and 54.5% (39.7-68.6) negative predictive values, and 71.4% overall accuracy. CONCLUSION Faecal calprotectin testing increases the diagnostic yield of small bowel capsule endoscopy and may help identify patients at risk of small bowel disease.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for their antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties. However, various aspects of NSAID-induced lower gastrointestinal tract injury remain unclear, and effective prophylaxis has not been established. Based on its pharmacological effect and clinical trials, rebamipide may prevent lower gastrointestinal tract injury, although this evidence is limited by the small scale of trials. The present study used the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the Japanese Adverse Event Reporting Database (JADER) to assess the efficacy of rebamipide in combination with loxoprofen and diclofenac in preventing NSAID-induced lower gastrointestinal tract injury. The calculated reporting odds ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI) for rebamipide in combination with loxoprofen and diclofenac were 1.15 (95% CI 0.88–1.51) and 1.28 (95% CI 0.82–2.01) for FAERS, and 0.50 (95% CI 0.35–0.71) and 0.43 (95% CI 0.27–0.67) for JADER, respectively. No signal was detected when combining drugs. These results suggest a prophylactic effect of rebamipide on NSAID-induced lower gastrointestinal tract injury.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) is a common, severe side effect of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Because patients are more prone to continuing chemotherapy if they do not suffer from CID, appropriate diagnosis and monitoring of this disease are essential. However, suitable monitoring methods are yet to be developed. To date, several studies have shown that small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) is useful in visualizing the entire small intestinal mucosa and detecting small intestinal abnormalities, including bleeding, malignant tumors, and mucosal injury, associated with the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and low-dose aspirin. Currently, limited studies have evaluated the small intestinal mucosa using SBCE in patients receiving fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy or immune checkpoint inhibitors. These studies have reported that small intestinal mucosal injury is common in patients with severe fluoropyrimidine-induced diarrhea. SBCE might be a useful screening method for the early detection of enterocolitis induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors. SBCE may be a powerful tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of CID, and understanding its indication, contraindication, and capsule-retention risk for each patient is important for clinicians.

Diseases of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and liver are a common cause of anemia, so patients with anemia are often referred to a gastroenterologist. SUMMARY Anemia could be caused by various factors such as chronic bleeding, malabsorption, or chronic inflammation. In clinical practice, iron deficiency anemia and the combined forms of anemia due to different pathophysiological mechanisms are most common. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy, and the small intestine examinations in specific situations play a crucial role in diagnosing anemia. In anemic, GI asymptomatic patients, there are recommendations for bidirectional endoscopy. Although GI malignancies are the most common cause of chronic bleeding, all conditions leading to blood loss, malabsorption, and chronic inflammation should be considered. From a gastroenterologist's perspective, the clinical spectrum of anemia is vast because many different digestive tract diseases lead to bleeding. Key Messages: The gastroenterological approach in solving anemia's problem requires an optimal strategy, consideration of the accompanying clinical signs, and the fastest possible diagnosis. Although patients with symptoms of anemia are often referred to gastroenterologists, the diagnostic approach requires further improvement in everyday clinical practice.

Cho M, Bu Y, Park JW, Rahman H, Ko SJ. Efficacy of complementary medicine for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced small intestinal injuries: A narrative review. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e28005.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced small bowel injuries (NSIs) have been largely ignored for decades due to the focus on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug gastropathy. With the visualization of the small intestines enabled by video capsule endoscopy, the frequency and severity of NSIs have become more evident. NSIs have a complex pathophysiology, and no effective preventive or treatment options have been proven. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has been used to treat disorders of the small intestine, and more research on its effectiveness for NSIs has been conducted.We reviewed the current evidence and mechanisms of action of CAMs on NSI. Clinical and experimental studies on the effect of CAMs on NSIs were performed using 10 databases.Twenty-two studies (3 clinical and 19 in vivo experimental studies) were included in the final analysis involving 10 kinds of CAMs: bovine colostrum, Orengedokuto (coptis), muscovite, licorice, grape seed, wheat, brown seaweed, Ganoderma lucidum fungus mycelia, Chaenomeles speciosa (sweet) Nakai (muguasantie), and Jinghua Weikang capsule. The mechanisms of CAM include an increase in prostaglandin E2, reparation of the enteric nervous system, inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines, reduction of intestinal permeability and enteric bacterial numbers, decrease in oxidative stress, and modulation of small intestinal motility.CAM may be a novel alternative option for treating and preventing NSI, and further studies on human and animal models with relevant comorbidities are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-induced gastrointestinal injury has been increasingly reported, but its exact incidence is not known. The small and large intestines represent the most affected sites of injury, accounting for 20%-40% of all gastrointestinal side effects. AIM To provide an updated literature review detailing medications linked to the development of small bowel injury. METHODS We conducted a literature search on PubMed from its inception to May 1, 2021. We included English-language original studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, review articles and case reports. RESULTS Drug-induced enteropathy can range from asymptomatic histological changes resulting in a subtle, self-limited disease to a chronic inflammatory condition mimicking inflammatory bowel disease, or bowel perforation. Endoscopy can demonstrate erythema, mucosal friability, oedema, erosions, ulcers or strictures in severe cases. Histology may include mucosal erosions and ulcerations, focal active enteritis, villous atrophy, epithelial apoptosis or necrotising enteritis. A well-established association has been found with the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, immunosuppressants, chemotherapeutic agents, antibiotics, immunotherapies, etanercept and olmesartan. Possible associations have been reported with other biologic agents, medications used for glycemic control, antihypertensives, cholinesterase inhibitors, potassium and iron supplements, with conflicting data regarding contraceptives/hormonal therapy and isotretinoin. CONCLUSION Physicians should be aware of the manifestations of drug-induced enteropathy as early recognition can lead to prompt discontinuation of the offending therapy and, therefore, a reduced risk of future complications.

Abstract
Fecal calprotectin (FC) is a noninvasive marker of intestinal inflammation used for screening and ongoing monitoring of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); it is unclear the association of specific FC values with disease activity. The aim of our study was to examine the association of FC values with endoscopic and histologic severity. Methods We performed a retrospective chart review of patients who had FC done between 30 days and 1 day before colonoscopy at our institution. IBD patients were graded using the simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease or Mayo endoscopic score for ulcerative colitis. Histologic slides were graded using the Geboes method. Results Three-hundred thirty-one patients were included in the study and 107 had IBD. For endoscopy, median FC was lowest for all IBD patients with no disease (181 μg/g) and highest in severe disease (921 μg/g), with significant difference between no disease and moderate and severe disease (P = 0.019, 0.003), and between mild and severe disease (P = 0.012). For histology, median FC was lowest with no disease (328 μg/g) and highest in severe disease (895 μg/g), with significant difference between no disease and moderate and severe disease (P = 0.021, 0.018). The control population had a significantly lower median FC than the IBD population in endoscopic remission (35.5 versus 181 μg/g; P = 0.018). Conclusions There was a linear increase in FC values associated with increasing disease severity in the undifferentiated IBD cohort. Values for IBD patients in endoscopic remission were significantly different from our control population. FC may be a useful noninvasive marker to assess disease severity.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used widely around the world because of their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antiplatelet activity. However, long-term application of NSAIDs can lead to complications. Previously, the clinical attention was dedicated to the NSAID-induced upper gastrointestinal complications. Recently, the detection rate of small intestinal damage related to NSAIDs has increased due to the wide use of endoscopes such as capsule endoscopy and double-balloon colonoscopy. Although the majority of patients have no significant symptoms, there are still a small percentage of patients who develop obvious symptoms or complicated ulcers that require therapeutic intervention. Despite significant advances in our understanding of NSAIDs, the treatment modality and regimen for NSAID-induced small intestinal damage have remained relatively unclear. This article will provide a comprehensive overview of NSAID-induced small intestinal damage with regard to the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, risk factors, pathogenesis, and treatment, in order to provide informative evidence for clinical practice.

Loxoprofen enhances intestinal barrier function via generation of its active metabolite by carbonyl reductase 1 in differentiated Caco-2 cells. Chem Biol Interact 2021; 348:109634.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used worldwide as antipyretic analgesics and agents for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, but known to cause damage to the gastrointestinal mucosae as their serious adverse effects. Few studies showed the impairment of intestinal epithelial barrier function (EBF) by high concentrations (0.5-1 mM) of NSAIDs, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. This study is aimed at clarifying effects at a low concentration (50 μM) of three NSAIDs, loxoprofen (Lox), ibuprofen and indomethacin, on intestinal EBF using human intestinal epithelial-like Caco-2 cells. Among those NSAIDs, Lox increased the transepithelial electric resistance (TER) value, decreased the paracellular Lucifer yellow CH (LYCH) permeability, and upregulated claudin (CLDN)-1, -3 and -5, indicating that low doses of Lox enhanced EBF through increasing expression of CLDNs. Lox is known to be metabolized to a pharmacologically active metabolite, (2S,1'R,2'S)-loxoprofen alcohol (Lox-RS), by carbonyl reductase 1 (CBR1), which is highly expressed in human intestine. CBR1 was expressed in the Caco-2 cells, and the pretreatment with a CBR1 inhibitor suppressed both the Lox-evoked CLDN upregulation and EBF enhancement. In addition, the treatment of the cells with Lox-RS resulted in higher TER value and lower LYCH permeability than those with Lox. Thus, Lox-RS synthesized by CBR1 may greatly contribute to the improving efficacy of Lox on the barrier function. Since EBF is decreased in inflammatory bowel disease, we finally examined the effect of Lox on EBF using the Caco-2/THP-1 co-culture system, which is used as an in vitro inflammatory bowel disease model. Lox significantly recovered EBF which was impaired by inflammatory cytokines secreted from THP-1 macrophages. These in vitro observations suggest that Lox enhances intestinal EBF, for which the metabolism of Lox to Lox-RS by CBR1 has an important role.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induced small intestinal damage through nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-dependent interleukin-1β secretion in mice. Our further study demonstrated that colchicine, a therapeutic agent for gout, significantly suppressed NSAID-induced small intestinal damage by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation in mice. However, clinical efficacy of colchicine for NSAID-induced small intestinal damage has not been established. OBJECTIVES We examined the clinical efficacy of colchicine in patients with NSAID-induced severe small intestinal damage as an animal-to-human translational research. METHODS This is a single-center, single-arm, prospective pilot study. From February 2017 to March 2019, we performed video capsule endoscopy (VCE) to screen 10 patients who took NSAIDs continuously for more than 3 months, and 7 of those with severe small intestinal damage were enrolled. Participants were treated with oral colchicine 0.5 mg twice daily for 8 weeks and thereafter followed up with blood tests and VCE. RESULTS After 8 weeks of colchicine treatment, complete healing was achieved in 4 patients (57.1%), and the median number of small erosions decreased significantly from 7.0 (range, 5.0-10.5) to 0.0 (range, 0.0-2.3) (p = 0.031). One patient withdrew due to diarrhea, and 5 patients revealed slightly elevated liver enzymes during the study. No other adverse events including changes in blood tests and clinical symptoms were observed. CONCLUSIONS Colchicine treatment achieved a high rate of complete healing in patients with NSAID-induced severe small intestinal damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, because the population is aging, use of medications has been increasing, including use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and antithrombotic agents. AIMS This study aims to investigate whether NSAIDs can cause damage to the small bowel (SB) mucosa. METHODS Endoscopic videos of subjects who had undergone capsule endoscopy (CE) were evaluated by three experts in order to identify SB injury. All medications taken within 2 weeks from the time of CE were investigated. Cases with a final diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis, inflammatory bowel disease, Behcet's disease, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, small bowel lymphoma, or Henoch-Schönlein purpura were excluded from the analysis. RESULTS Among the 273 subjects, 125 (45.8%) had SB erosions or ulcers (erosion group) and the remaining 148 (54.2%) did not (no erosion group). SB erosions or ulcers were more common in females, patients aged > 60 years, and subjects taking NSAIDs (p = 0.048, 0.032, and < 0.001, respectively). No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in the following variables: history of cancer and GI surgery, reasons for the test, comorbidities, and use of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents. Multivariate analysis showed that use of NSAIDs [OR 4.191 (95% CI 1.858-9.458), p < 0.001] was an independent risk factor for SB erosions or ulcers. CONCLUSIONS Use of NSAIDs is the only independent risk factor for SB injury identified in this study. Antithrombotic agents do not cause or exacerbate damage to the SB, according to our results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We have previously revealed the clinical factors and genetic polymorphisms associated with gastrointestinal mucosal injury and bleeding, induced by low-dose aspirin (LDA). After performing genome-wide analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using the Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters (DMET) system among drug metabolism and transporter genes, certain SNPs were found to increase the risk for LDA-induced small bowel bleeding. The aim of this study was to identify the SNPs involved in LDA-induced small bowel bleeding. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Subjects were patients taking LDA, with small bowel bleeding diagnosed using capsule endoscopy. We investigated the clinical characteristics and the previously identified SNPs, that were examined by the DNA direct sequence method. RESULTS 56 patients with bleeding and 410 controls taking LDA were enrolled. The risk factors associated with small bowel bleeding included smoking, cerebrovascular diseases, chronic renal failure, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or anticoagulants combination, and two SNPs (CYP4F11 20043G>A (D446N) rs1060463, GSTP1 313A>G rs1695). After propensity score matching, GSTP1 rs1695 was significantly associated with small bowel bleeding. CONCLUSION The GSTP1 SNP may be a predictive marker for small bowel bleeding among patients taking LDA.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a group of drugs which are widely used globally for the treatment of pain and inflammation, and in the case of aspirin, for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Chronic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use is associated with potentially serious upper gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions (ADRs) including peptic ulcer disease and gastrointestinal bleeding. A few clinical and genetic predisposing factors have been identified; however, genetic data are contradictory. Further research is needed to identify clinically relevant genetic and non-genetic markers predisposing to NSAID-induced peptic ulceration.

The Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Ketorolac Alters the Small Intestinal Microbiota and Bile Acids Without Inducing Intestinal Damage or Delaying Peristalsis in the Rat. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:664177.

Abstract
Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induce significant damage to the small intestine, which is accompanied by changes in intestinal bacteria (dysbiosis) and bile acids. However, it is still a question of debate whether besides mucosal inflammation also other factors, such as direct antibacterial effects or delayed peristalsis, contribute to NSAID-induced dysbiosis. Here we aimed to assess whether ketorolac, an NSAID lacking direct effects on gut bacteria, has any significant impact on intestinal microbiota and bile acids in the absence of mucosal inflammation. We also addressed the possibility that ketorolac-induced bacterial and bile acid alterations are due to a delay in gastrointestinal (GI) transit. Methods: Vehicle or ketorolac (1, 3 and 10 mg/kg) were given to rats by oral gavage once daily for four weeks, and the severity of mucosal inflammation was evaluated macroscopically, histologically, and by measuring the levels of inflammatory proteins and claudin-1 in the distal jejunal tissue. The luminal amount of bile acids was measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, whereas the composition of microbiota by sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA. GI transit was assessed by the charcoal meal method. Results: Ketorolac up to 3 mg/kg did not cause any signs of mucosal damage to the small intestine. However, 3 mg/kg of ketorolac induced dysbiosis, which was characterized by a loss of families belonging to Firmicutes (Paenibacillaceae, Clostridiales Family XIII, Christensenellaceae) and bloom of Enterobacteriaceae. Ketorolac also changed the composition of small intestinal bile by decreasing the concentration of conjugated bile acids and by increasing the amount of hyodeoxycholic acid (HDCA). The level of conjugated bile acids correlated negatively with the abundance of Erysipelotrichaceae, Ruminococcaceae, Clostridiaceae 1, Muribaculaceae, Bacteroidaceae, Burkholderiaceae and Bifidobacteriaceae. Ketorolac, under the present experimental conditions, did not change the GI transit. Conclusion: This is the first demonstration that low-dose ketorolac disturbed the delicate balance between small intestinal bacteria and bile acids, despite having no significant effect on intestinal mucosal integrity and peristalsis. Other, yet unidentified, factors may contribute to ketorolac-induced dysbiosis and bile dysmetabolism.

Protective role of resolvin D1, a pro-resolving lipid mediator, in nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced small intestinal damage. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0250862. [PMID: 33945545 PMCID: PMC8096073 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0250862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2021] [Accepted: 04/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Resolvin D1, a specialized pro-resolving lipid mediator produced from docosahexaenoic acid by 15- and 5-lipoxygenase, exerts anti-inflammatory effects driving to the resolution of inflammation. The present study aimed to elucidate its role in small intestinal damage induced by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Indomethacin was administered orally to C57BL/6J male mice, which were sacrificed 24 h later to collect small intestine specimens. Before administration of indomethacin, mice were subjected to intraperitoneal treatment with resolvin D1 or oral administration of baicalein, a 15-lipoxygenase inhibitor. Small intestinal damage induced by indomethacin was attenuated by pretreatment with resolvin D1. Furthermore, resolvin D1 reduced the gene expression levels of interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, and CXCL1/keratinocyte chemoattractant. Conversely, the inhibition of 15-lipoxygenase activity by baicalein increased the expression of genes coding for these inflammatory cytokines and chemokine, leading to exacerbated small intestinal damage, and reduced the concentration of resolvin D1 in the small intestinal tissue. Exogenous treatment with resolvin D1 negated the deleterious effect of baicalein. 15-lipoxygenase was mainly expressed in the epithelium and inflammatory cells of the small intestine, and its gene and protein expression was not affected by the administration of indomethacin. Inhibition of the resolvin D1 receptor, lipoxin A4 receptor /formyl peptide receptor 2, by its specific inhibitors Boc-1 and WRW4 aggravated indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage. Collectively, these results indicate that resolvin D1 produced by 15-lipoxygenase contributes to mucoprotection against NSAID-induced small intestinal damage through its anti-inflammatory effect.

International consensus on methodological issues in standardization of fecal calprotectin measurement in inflammatory bowel diseases. United European Gastroenterol J 2021; 9:451-460. [PMID: 33961734 PMCID: PMC8259254 DOI: 10.1002/ueg2.12069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fecal calprotectin (FC) is a non-invasive marker of gut inflammation which is frequently used to guide therapeutic decisions in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Each step of FC measurement can influence the results, leading to misinterpretations and potentially impacting the management of IBD patients. To date, there is high heterogeneity between FC measurements and no current method is universally accepted as a standard. AIMS Our aim was to provide clear position statementsabout the pre-analytical and the analytical phases of FC measurement to homogenize FC levels and to minimize variability and risk of misinterpretation through aninternational consensus. MATERIALS & METHODS Fourteen physicians with expertise in the field of IBD and FC from 11 countries attended a virtual international consensus meeting on July 17th, 2020. A systematic literature was conducted and the literature evidence was shared and discussedamong the participants. Statements were formulated, discussed, and voted. Statements were considered approved if all participants agreed. RESULTS Nine statements were formulated and approved. Based on the available evidence, quantitative tests should be preferred for measuring FC. Furthermore, FC measurement, if possible, should always be performed with the same method and factors influencing FC levels should be taken into account when interpreting the results. DISCUSSION FC has an increasingly important role in the management of patients with IBD. However, large multicenter studies should be conducted to define the reproducibility and to confirm the diagnostic accuracy of the available FC tests. CONCLUSION FC concentrations guide clinicians' treatment decisions. Our statements have a relevant impact in daily practice and could be applied in clinical trials to standardize FC measurement.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) represent one of the most widely used classes of drugs and play a pivotal role in the therapy of numerous inflammatory diseases. However, the adverse effects of these drugs, especially when applied chronically, frequently affect gastrointestinal (GI) tract, resulting in ulceration and bleeding, which constitutes a significant limitation in clinical practice. On the other hand, it has been recently discovered that gaseous mediators nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon monoxide (CO) contribute to many physiological processes in the GI tract, including the maintenance of GI mucosal barrier integrity. Therefore, based on the possible therapeutic properties of NO, H2S and CO, a novel NSAIDs with ability to release one or more of those gaseous messengers have been synthesized. Until now, both preclinical and clinical studies have shown promising effects with respect to the anti-inflammatory potency as well as GI-safety of these novel NSAIDs. This review provides an overview of the gaseous mediators-based NSAIDs along with their mechanisms of action, with special emphasis on possible implications for GI mucosal defense mechanisms.

Br J Clin Pharmacol 2021; 87:4625-4635.

Abstract
Aims Use of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause damage to the gastric and duodenal mucosa. Some probiotics have proven useful in ameliorating the harmful side‐effects of NSAIDs. Our aim was to evaluate whether oral administration of Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis 420 (B420) can attenuate the increase of calprotectin excretion into faeces induced by intake of diclofenac sustained‐release tablets. Methods A double‐blind, parallel‐group, placebo‐controlled and randomized clinical study was performed in 50 healthy male and female volunteers aged 20–40 years, in Finland. Study participation consisted of 4 phases: run‐in, intervention with B420 or placebo, B420 or placebo + NSAID treatment, and follow‐up. The primary outcome was the concentration of calprotectin in faeces. Secondary outcomes were haemoglobin and microbial DNA in faeces and blood haemoglobin levels. Results Intake of diclofenac increased the faecal excretion of calprotectin in both groups. The observed increases were 48.19 ± 61.55 μg/g faeces (mean ± standard deviation) in the B420 group and 31.30 ± 39.56 μg/g in the placebo group (difference estimate 16.90; 95% confidence interval: −14.00, 47.77; P = .276). There were no significant differences between the treatment groups in changes of faecal or blood haemoglobin. Faecal B. lactis DNA was much more abundant in the B420 group compared to the placebo group (ANOVA estimate for treatment difference 0.85 × 109/g faeces; 95% confidence interval: 0.50 × 109, 1.21 × 109; P < .0001). Conclusions Short‐term administration of the probiotic B420 did not protect the healthy adult study participants from diclofenac‐induced gastrointestinal inflammation as determined by analysis of faecal calprotectin levels.

Abstract
Video capsule endoscopy has an essential role in the diagnosis and management of small bowel bleeding and is the first-line study recommended for this purpose. This article reviews the risk factors for small bowel bleeding, optimal timing for video capsule endoscopy testing, and algorithms recommended for evaluation. Used primarily for the assessment of nonacute gastrointestinal blood loss, video capsule endoscopy has an emerging role for more urgent use in emergency settings and in special populations. Future software incorporation of neural networks to enhance lesion detection will likely result in an augmented role of video capsule endoscopy in small bowel bleeding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to review the evidence regarding the clinical use and value of fecal calprotectin (FC) measurements in different gastrointestinal disorders in children. METHODS A literature search was conducted in the PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases until October 31, 2019. Subtopics were identified and each assigned to individual authors. RESULTS A total of 28 recommendations were voted on using the nominal voting technique. Recommendations are given related to sampling, measurement methods, and results interpretation. The 14 authors anonymously voted on each recommendation using a 9-point scale (1 strongly disagree to 9 fully agree). Consensus was considered achieved if at least 75% of the authors voted 6, 7, 8, or 9. CONCLUSIONS Consensus was reached for all recommendations. Limitations for the use of FC in clinical practice include variability in extraction methodology, performance of test kits as well as the need to establish local reference ranges because of the influence of individual factors, such as age, diet, microbiota, and drugs. The main utility of FC measurement at present is in the diagnosis and monitoring of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) as well as to differentiate it from functional gastrointestinal disorders (FAPDs). FC, however, has neither utility in the diagnosis of infantile colic nor to differentiate between functional and organic constipation. A rise in FC concentration, may alert to the risk of developing necrotizing enterocolitis and help identifying gastrointestinal involvement in children with Henoch-Schönlein purpura. FC measurement is of little value in Cow's Milk Protein Allergy, coeliac disease (CD), and cystic fibrosis. FC does neither help to distinguish bacterial from viral acute gastroenteritis (AGE), nor to diagnose Helicobacter Pylori infection, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), acute appendicitis (AA), or intestinal polyps.

Abstract
Background Endoscopically defined mucosal healing in Crohn's disease is associated with improved outcomes. Panenteric capsule endoscopy enables a single non‐invasive assessment of small and large bowel mucosal inflammation. Aims and Methods This multicentre observational study of patients with suspected and established Crohn's disease examined the feasibility, safety and impact on patient outcomes of panenteric capsule endoscopy in routine clinical practice. The potential role in assessment of disease severity and extent by a comparison with existing clinical and biochemical markers is examined. Results Panenteric capsule endoscopy was performed on 93 patients (71 with established and 22 with suspected Crohn's disease). A complete examination occurred in 85% (79/93). Two cases (2.8%) of capsule retention occurred in patients with established Crohn's disease. Panenteric capsule resulted in management change in 38.7% (36/93) patients, including 64.6% (32/48) of those with an established diagnosis whose disease was active, and all three patients with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease. Montreal classification was upstaged in 33.8% of patients with established Crohn's disease and mucosal healing was demonstrated in 15.5%. Proximal small bowel disease upstaged disease in 12.7% and predicted escalation of therapy (odds ratio 40.3, 95% confidence interval 3.6–450.2). Raised C‐reactive protein and faecal calprotectin were poorly sensitive in detecting active disease (0.48 and 0.59 respectively). Conclusions Panenteric capsule endoscopy was feasible in routine practice and the ability to detect proximal small bowel disease may allow better estimation of prognosis and guide treatment intensification. Panenteric capsule endoscopy may be a suitable non‐invasive endoscopic investigation in determining disease activity and supporting management decisions.
Summarise the established knowledge on this subject
Biochemical and clinical markers poorly predict active disease and need for treatment escalation; Panenteric capsule endoscope is feasible, safe and has the potential to non‐invasively assess patients with Crohn's Disease.
What are the significant and/or new findings of this study?
Panenteric capsule endoscope can upstage disease in one‐third of patients with a threefold increase in the identification of proximal small bowel disease; Identification of proximal small bowel disease predicted treatment intensification.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Capsule endoscopy (CE) is an established modality in the diagnostic algorithm of small bowel (SB) pathology. Its use has expanded for investigation of upper and lower gastrointestinal diseases with similar prototypes. AREAS COVERED This review covers the role and recent advances of CE, as a non-invasive investigative tool. EXPERT OPINION The use of upper gastrointestinal CE is useful in patients who require surveillance for varices particularly in the current era of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has also shown high accuracy in the detection of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage in patients presenting with a suspicion of hemorrhage. Findings on CE help to guide further management by device-assisted enteroscopy. The data on colon CE suggest comparable diagnostic accuracy to colonoscopy for polyp detection; however, more evidence is required in the high-risk group. Crohn's CE has become an integral part of the management of patients with Crohn's disease offering a comparative assessment tool post escalation of therapy. Artificial intelligence within CE has demonstrated similar if not better diagnostic yield compared to the human with a significantly shorter reading time. Artificial intelligence is likely to be in-built within CE reading platforms over the next few years minimizing reporting time and human error.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induce small intestinal damage. It has been reported that rebamipide, a mucoprotective drug, exerts a protective effect against NSAID-induced small intestinal damage; however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the significance of the small intestinal microbiota in the protective effect of rebamipide against indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage in mice. A comprehensive analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed an alteration in the composition of the small intestinal microbiota at the species level, modulated by the administration of rebamipide and omeprazole. The transplantation of the small intestinal microbiota of the mice treated with rebamipide suppressed the indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage. Omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, exacerbated the indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage, which was accompanied by the alteration of the small intestinal microbiota. We found that the transplantation of the small intestinal microbiota of the rebamipide-treated mice ameliorated indomethacin-induced small intestinal damage and the omeprazole-induced exacerbation of the damage. These results suggest that rebamipide exerts a protective effect against NSAID-induced small intestinal damage via the modulation of the small intestinal microbiota, and that its ameliorating effect extends also to the exacerbation of NSAID-induced small intestinal damage by proton pump inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Faecal calprotectin [FC] is a valid and non-invasive marker of mucosal inflammation. It is widely used both in clinical trials and in daily clinical practice for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases, but currently no accepted standardization for FC testing is available. Our primary aim here was to provide a clinician's guide containing all the practical information on FC measurement in order to avoid any confounding factors, to minimize intra- and inter-individual variability in dosage, and to ensure a better and adequate interpretation of the results. METHODS We conducted a detailed search of the scientific literature in the PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane databases up to January 2020 to find all relevant and available articles on pre-analytical and analytical phases of FC measurement. RESULTS FC testing is a multi-step procedure consisting of a pre-analytical phase aimed to collect and process the stool sample and a subsequent analytical phase of FC measurement. Several factors can influence test results determining false positives or false negatives. Importantly, this faecal marker is mostly used for patient follow-up and as a predictor of treatment response. For this reason, any altered data may affect the physicians' decisions, negatively impacting on patient management. CONCLUSIONS This review provides for the first time practical advice to minimize dosage variability, although further dedicated studies are needed to compare commercially available tests and identify the best tools for the most precise and accurate FC measurement.

Abstract
Objective Antithrombotic drugs are being used increasingly frequently to prevent cardiovascular diseases. Few studies have evaluated small bowel mucosal injury induced by dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). The aim of the present study was to evaluate small bowel mucosal injury induced by DAPT compared with other antithrombotics using video capsule endoscopy (VCE). Methods The study included chronic users of antithrombotics who underwent VCE for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding between January 2007 and July 2018. We evaluated the instances of small bowel injury classified into erosions and ulcers. Results Overall, 183 patients (114 men and 69 women; mean age, 73.6 years old) were enrolled, and the study groups comprised 49 patients taking low-dose aspirin (LDA) only, 50 taking anticoagulants only, 37 being treated with DAPT, 33 on combined LDA and anticoagulants, and 14 taking P2Y12 inhibitors. Small bowel erosions and ulcers were most frequently observed in the DAPT group, with frequencies of 78.4% and 37.8%, respectively. Exacerbating factors of small bowel ulcers were DAPT [odds ratio (OR) 3.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.2-7.7] and age over 80 years old (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.1-5.4). Conclusion P2Y12 inhibitors seem to exacerbate LDA-induced small bowel injury. Preventive strategies for small bowel injury induced by LDA, especially DAPT, are urgently required.

Abstract
As a class of the commonly used drugs in clinical practice, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause a series of adverse events including gastrointestinal injuries. Besides upper gastrointestinal injuries, NSAID enteropathy also attracts attention with the introduction of capsule endoscopy and double balloon enteroscopy. However, the pathogenesis of NSAID enteropathy remains to be entirely clarified. Growing evidence from basic and clinical studies presents that gut microbiota is a critical factor in NSAID enteropathy progress. We have reviewed the recent data about the interplay between gut microbiota dysbiosis and NSAID enteropathy. The chronic medication of NSAIDs could change the composition of the intestinal bacteria and aggravate bile acids cytotoxicity. Meanwhile, NSAIDs impair the intestinal barrier by inhibiting cyclooxygenase and destroying mitochondria. Subsequently, intestinal bacteria translocate into the mucosa, and then lipopolysaccharide released from gut microbiota combines to Toll-like receptor 4 and induce excessive production of nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Intestinal injuries present in the condition of intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress. In this paper, we also have reviewed the possible strategies of regulating gut microbiota for the management of NSAID enteropathy, including antibiotics, probiotics, prebiotics, mucosal protective agents, and fecal microbiota transplant, and we emphasized the adverse effects of proton pump inhibitors on NSAID enteropathy. Therefore, this review will provide new insights into a better understanding of gut microbiota in NSAID enteropathy.

Abstract
Evidence about the role of nutritional factors and microbiota in autoimmune diseases, and in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in particular, has grown in recent years, however many controversies remain. The aim of this review is to summarize the role of nutrition and of the intestinal microbiota in the development of RA. We will focus on selected dietary patterns, individual foods and beverages that have been most consistently associated with RA or with the occurrence of systemic autoimmunity associated with RA. We will also review the evidence for a role of the intestinal microbiota in RA development. We propose that diet and digestive microbiota should be considered together in research, as they interact and may both be the target for future preventive interventions in RA.

Indomethacin loaded dextran stearate polymeric micelles improve adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats: design and in vivo evaluation. Inflammopharmacology 2020; 29:107-121. [PMID: 33179175 DOI: 10.1007/s10787-020-00776-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2020] [Accepted: 10/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Indomethacin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that can effectively control the pain and inflammation caused by rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but its usage is limited due to severe adverse effects. For this reason, making more specific formulations of this drug can be considered. The aim of the present study was designing a novel nano-sized indomethacin delivery system. MATERIALS AND METHODS Indomethacin-loaded dextran stearate polymeric micelles were prepared by dialysis method. Particle size and zeta potential of micelles were measured by a zeta sizer instrument. Drug release from micelles was investigated in phosphate buffer medium pH 7.4 and then the best formulation regarding physical properties and drug release was selected for animal studies. Arthritis was induced by complete Freund's adjuvant injection in rats. Then, the animals were randomly assigned into the model, the indomethacin solution and the polymeric micelles groups. The clinical effects of polymeric micelle formulation were assessed by measuring arthritis index, animal paw edema and measuring biochemical parameters including myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, lipid peroxidation (LPO), glutathione (GSH), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-1β. RESULTS Paw edema was attenuated following the administration of indomethacin-loaded polymeric micelles. Based on the findings of the present study, the use of indomethacin-loaded polymeric micelles could improve inflammatory symptoms, decrease arthritis index and decrease the diameter of the paw in arthritic rats in a significant manner (p ≤ 0.05). In addition, the use of polymeric micelles like indomethacin solution significantly reduced (p ≤ 0.05) the activity of MPO, LPO, TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-1β, and made a significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) in glutathione and TAC content and ameliorated structural changes in the paw tissue compared to the control group. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrated that indomethacin-loaded dextran stearate polymeric micelles can provide more effective therapeutic effects in control of inflammation in arthritis in rat.

Abstract
Advanced age, history of peptic ulcer disease, Helicobacter pylori, coadministration of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, anticoagulation, and antiplatelets are risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding in the elderly. Awareness of these risks and appropriate use of NSAIDs, particularly in those needing antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy, is critical to optimal management. Careful selection of elderly patients requiring antiplatelet, anticoagulation, or chronic NSAID therapy for cotherapy with proton pump inhibitors can significantly reduce morbidity and mortality from gastrointestinal bleeding.

Abstract
Background Diarrhea is a common adverse event of fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. However, limited data are available on the frequency and risk factors of complicated chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) and small intestinal mucosal damage. In this current study, we aimed to determine the incidence of complicated CID and mucosal injury among patients with complicated CID receiving fluoropyrimidine via small bowel capsule endoscopy (CE) and determined baseline risk factors associated with complicated CID. Methods In total, 536 patients with advanced or recurrent gastrointestinal cancer who received fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. Diarrhea was evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4. Complicated CID was defined according to the American Society of Clinical Oncology guidelines. To evaluate small intestinal mucosal injury in patients with complicated CID, CE was performed. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify risk factors for complicated CID. Results Total number of 32 (6%) patients developed complicated CID. Complicating symptoms were noted in 25 (78%) patients, with cramping, vomiting, and sepsis being observed in 15 (60%), 8 (32%), and 3 (12%) patients, respectively. Among the 13 patients who underwent CE, 11 (85%) showed abnormal findings. Multivariate analysis revealed that oral fluoropyrimidine administration was a risk factor for complicated CID (odds ratio 2.95; 95% confidence interval 1.06–8.19). Conclusions Despite the relatively low incidence of complicated CID, mucosal injury of small intestine was common in patients with complicated fluoropyrimidine-induced diarrhea and oral fluoropyrimidine was an independent risk factor.

Abstract
Owing to the efficacy in reducing pain and inflammation, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are amongst the most popularly used medicines confirming their position in the WHO's Model List of Essential Medicines. With escalating musculoskeletal complications, as evident from 2016 Global Burden of Disease data, NSAID usage is evidently unavoidable. Apart from analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic efficacies, NSAIDs are further documented to offer protection against diverse critical disorders including cancer and heart attacks. However, data from multiple placebo-controlled trials and meta-analyses studies alarmingly signify the adverse effects of NSAIDs in gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, cerebral and pulmonary complications. Although extensive research has elucidated the mechanisms underlying the clinical hazards of NSAIDs, no review has extensively collated the outcomes on various multiorgan toxicities of these drugs together. In this regard, the present review provides a comprehensive insight of the existing knowledge and recent developments on NSAID-induced organ damage. It precisely encompasses the current understanding of structure, classification and mode of action of NSAIDs while reiterating on the emerging instances of NSAID drug repurposing along with pharmacophore modification aimed at safer usage of NSAIDs where toxic effects are tamed without compromising the clinical benefits. The review does not intend to vilify these 'wonder drugs'; rather provides a careful understanding of their side-effects which would be beneficial in evaluating the risk-benefit threshold while rationally using NSAIDs at safer dose and duration.

Abstract
Background and objectives: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been among the major causes of small intestinal injury in clinical practice. As such, the current study investigated the protective effect of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) against an NSAID-induced small intestinal injury. Materials and Methods: IEC-6 cells were treated with various concentrations of indomethacin with or without 5-ASA in a serum-free medium, after which an 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Dromide (MTT) assay, a cell apoptosis assay, a caspase-3 activity assay, a reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and Superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) activity measurement, a Western blotting for occludin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and a wound healing assay were conducted. Results: 5-ASA ameliorated indomethacin-induced cell apoptosis and an increase in the intracellular ROS content while augmenting the indomethacin-induced suppression of SOD2 activity in IEC-6 cells. Moreover, 5-ASA reversed the indomethacin-induced attenuation of occludin and ZO-1 expression and promoted faster wound healing effects in IEC-6 cells following an indomethacin-induced injury. Conclusions: Our results suggested that 5-ASA protects small intestinal cells against an NSAID-induced small intestinal injury by scavenging free radicals. Therefore, 5-ASA could be a potential treatment for an NSAID-induced small intestinal injury.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intestinal permeation enhancers (PEs) are substances that transiently alter the intestinal epithelial barrier to facilitate permeation of macromolecules with low oral bioavailability (BA). While a number of PEs have progressed to clinical testing in conventional formulations with macromolecules, there has been only low single digit increases in oral BA, irrespective of whether the drug met primary or secondary clinical endpoints. AREAS COVERED This article considers the causes of sub-optimal BA of macromolecules from PE dosage forms and suggests approaches that may improve performance in humans. EXPERT OPINION Permeation enhancement is most effective when the PE is co-localized with the macromolecule at the epithelial surface. Conditions in the GI tract impede optimal co-localization. Novel delivery systems that limit dilution and spreading of the PE and macromolecule in the small intestine have attempted to replicate promising enhancement efficacy observed in static drug delivery models.
