Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to define clusters of disease activity and prognostic factors of disease course in a well-characterized cohort of children with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS All patients from the SIGENP IBD (Italian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition Inflammatory Bowel Disease) registry with a 5-year follow-up and 6-monthly evaluation were included. Active disease was defined for each semester as follows: clinical activity (weighted Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index ≥12.5 or Mucosal Inflammation Noninvasive Index ≥8) and active disease on endoscopy (Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease >3 or fecal calprotectin >250 µg/g) or imaging. Formula-based clusters were generated based on previously published patterns in adults. RESULTS Data from 332 patients were analyzed. A total of 105 (32%) experienced a quiescent disease course; 49 (15%) and 31 (9%) a moderate-to-severe chronically active and chronic intermittent disease, respectively; 104 (31%) and 43 (13%) had active disease in the first 2 years after diagnosis and remission thereafter and vice versa, respectively. Surgery at diagnosis was significantly associated with a quiescent course (odds ratio [OR], 10.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.05-25.22; P=.0005), while growth impairment at the diagnosis and active disease requiring corticosteroids at 6 months were inversely related to the quiescent group (OR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.27-0.81; P= .007; and OR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.16-0.71; P= .005, respectively). Perianal involvement at diagnosis and moderate-severe activity at 6 months correlated with disease progression (OR, 3.85; 95% CI, 1.20-12.85; P=.02). CONCLUSIONS During the first 5 years of follow-up, one-third of children with CD experience a quiescent course. However, another one-third have a moderate-to-severe disease course. Surgery at the diagnosis is related to a quiescent course, while growth impairment and lack of response to induction therapy correlate with more severe disease activity during follow-up.

Abstract
Abdominal pain is one of the most common and impactful symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. A great deal of research has been undertaken over the past several years to improve our understanding and to optimize management of this issue. Unfortunately, there is still significant confusion about the underlying pathophysiology of abdominal pain in these conditions and the evidence underlying treatment options in this context. There is also a relative paucity of comprehensive reviews on this topic, including those that simultaneously evaluate pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapeutic options. In this review, our multidisciplinary team examines evidence for various currently available medical, surgical, and other analgesic options to manage abdominal pain in IBD.

Abstract
Background Pain is a predominant symptom of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and is influenced by cognitive, emotional, and behavioral factors. The cognitive-affective model of symptom appraisal (CAMSA) has been used to understand how youth view symptoms in chronic conditions. We sought to (1) determine how youth with IBD and their parents appraise pain, and how their perspectives fit within CAMSA, and (2) explore health care providers' understanding and communication about pain. Methods Participants included 19 youth ages 10-17 years with chronic IBD pain and their parents, and 5 IBD providers from a gastroenterology clinic. Separate semi-structured qualitative interviews with youth, parents, and providers were conducted. Interview prompts were adapted from CAMSA, previous studies of pediatric pain and symptom monitoring, and a qualitative study in adults with IBD pain. Interviews were analyzed according to principles of reflexive thematic analysis. Results Three key components of CAMSA (IBD Threat, Fear/Worry, and Biased Attending) were identified in youth and parent dyads. Some youth showed Biased Attending, including difficulty disengaging, while other youth simply monitored pain. The overarching theme for provider interviews was Gastroenterologists view pain as a secondary (rather than primary) treatment issue. Conclusions CAMSA is potentially applicable to pain appraisal in youth with IBD and their parents. When health care providers communicate about pain, they should consider how symptom uncertainty may be influenced by threat, fear/worry, and biased attending. Further studies are needed to develop and test psychosocial interventions to reduce fear and threat of pain in youth with IBD in partnership with families and providers.

Construction of a Conceptual Framework for Assessment of Health-Related Quality of Life in Dogs With Osteoarthritis. Front Vet Sci 2021; 8:741864.

Abstract
An owner's ability to detect changes in the behavior of a dog afflicted with osteoarthritis (OA) may be a barrier to presentation, clinical diagnosis and initiation of treatment. Management of OA also relies upon an owner's ability to accurately monitor improvement following a trial period of pain relief. The changes in behavior that are associated with the onset and relief of pain from OA can be assessed to determine the dog's health-related quality of life (HRQOL). HRQOL assessments are widely used in human medicine and if developed correctly can be used in the monitoring of disease and in clinical trials. This study followed established guidelines to construct a conceptual framework of indicators of HRQOL in dogs with OA. This generated items that can be used to develop a HRQOL assessment tool specific to dogs with OA. A systematic review was conducted using Web of Science, PubMed and Scopus with search terms related to indicators of HRQOL in dogs with osteoarthritis. Eligibility and quality assessment criteria were applied. Data were extracted from eligible studies using a comprehensive data charting table. Resulting domains and items were assessed at a half-day workshop attended by experts in canine osteoarthritis and quality of life. Domains and their interactions were finalized and a visual representation of the conceptual framework was produced. A total of 1,264 unique articles were generated in the database searches and assessed for inclusion. Of these, 21 progressed to data extraction. After combining synonyms, 47 unique items were categorized across six domains. Review of the six domains by the expert panel resulted in their reduction to four: physical appearance, capability, behavior, and mood. All four categories were deemed to be influenced by pain from osteoarthritis. Capability, mood, and behavior were all hypothesized to impact on each other while physical appearance was impacted by, but did not impact upon, the other domains. The framework has potential application to inform the development of valid and reliable instruments to operationalize measurement of HRQOL in canine OA for use in general veterinary practice to guide OA management decisions and in clinical studies to evaluate treatment outcomes.

Health-related quality of life in youth with abdominal pain: An examination of optimism and pain self-efficacy. J Psychosom Res 2021; 147:110531.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Abdominal pain adversely impacts children with functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) or organic gastrointestinal disorders (OGIDs); findings are inconsistent regarding diagnosis and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study utilizes a positive psychology framework to understand the experience of youth with abdominal pain (i.e., do positive psychological factors, such as optimism and pain self-efficacy, relate to higher HRQoL?). Consistent with a protective factor model of resilience, in which personal assets may serve as buffers between risk factors and negative outcomes, optimism and pain self-efficacy were examined as they relate to HRQoL in youth with abdominal pain. Specifically, exploratory moderational analyses examined a) if optimism and pain self-efficacy moderate the relation between pain and HRQoL, and b) whether diagnostic status moderated the relation between optimism/pain self-efficacy and HRQoL. METHODS In a cross-sectional, observational study, youth (n = 98; Mage = 13, SD = 3) experiencing abdominal pain related to FGIDs or OGIDs and one of their parents participated. Measures included pain intensity, optimism, pain self-efficacy, and HRQoL. Analyses controlled for diagnosis, age, and gender. RESULTS Higher pain and age related to lower HRQoL. Higher levels of optimism and pain self-efficacy associated with HRQoL beyond demographics. Optimism and pain self-efficacy did not moderate the relation between pain and HRQoL. Diagnostic status did not moderate the relation between optimism or pain self-efficacy and HRQoL. DISCUSSION Our results suggest positive relations between positive psychological factors (optimism, pain self-efficacy) and HRQoL in youth with abdominal pain. Such factors could be further examined in intervention studies.

Abstract
Pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may experience chronic stress related to disease symptoms and treatment, with negative consequences to their health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Lower HRQOL among pediatric patients with IBD has been associated with worse disease-related symptoms and psychological functioning, while higher HRQOL has been associated with more adaptive coping with disease symptoms and treatment. In addition, patients’ self-esteem may impact the selection and use of coping strategies through global cognitions about their abilities and perceived competence. The current study seeks to extend existing research on HRQOL in youth with IBD by examining cross-sectional associations among self-esteem and passive coping strategies. Youth ages 9–18 with IBD (n = 147) rated their HRQOL using a disease-specific measure, typical strategies used to cope with pain or GI symptoms, and their general self-esteem. Mediation analyses were performed using regression-based techniques and bootstrapping. Results indicated that greater self-esteem was positively associated with HRQOL but negatively associated with passive coping. Controlling for disease activity, age, and gender, significant indirect effects were found in the relation between self-esteem and HRQOL through passive coping. Multiple mediation analyses using the three passive coping subscales found that self-esteem was indirectly associated with HRQOL through its effects specifically on catastrophizing as a passive coping strategy. Results suggest that pediatric patients’ general self-esteem can impact their HRQOL through passive coping and specifically, maladaptive cognitions (e.g., catastrophizing). Interventions aimed at addressing both self-esteem and catastrophizing as a passive coping strategy may offer promise for improving HRQOL in youth with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain is a common symptom in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and is associated with poor health outcomes, yet additional knowledge about the psychosocial correlates of pain is needed to optimize clinical care. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the psychosocial factors associated with pain and pain impact in youth diagnosed with IBD within a developmentally informed framework. METHODS Manual and electronic searches yielded 2641 references. Two authors conducted screening (98% agreement), and data extraction was performed in duplicate. Average study quality was rated using the National Institutes of Health Quality Assessment Tool. RESULTS Ten studies (N = 763 patients; N = 563 Crohn disease, N = 200 ulcerative/ indeterminate colitis) met the inclusion criteria. Findings showed consistent evidence that higher levels of child depression symptoms and child pain catastrophizing were associated with significantly greater pain and pain impact (magnitude of association ranged from small to large across studies). Greater pain and pain impact were also associated with higher levels of child anxiety symptoms, child pain threat, child pain worry, and parent pain catastrophizing. Within the included studies, female sex and disease severity were both significantly associated with pain and pain impact. Study quality was moderate on average. CONCLUSIONS There is evidence that child psychosocial factors are associated with pain and pain impact in pediatric IBD; more studies are needed to examine parent- and family-level psychosocial factors. Youth with IBD should be routinely screened for pain severity, pain impact, and psychosocial risk factors such as anxiety/depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease is a chronic and unpredictable inflammatory bowel disease that leads to important psychosocial difficulties especially during sensitive developmental stages such as childhood and adolescence. While risk factors for mood disorders have been identified in the literature, those for quality of life and psychosocial functioning have not. OBJECTIVE This systematic review explored the determinants of quality of life and psychosocial adjustment to pediatric Crohn's disease. METHOD Four international databases were consulted in March 2020: PubMed, PsychInfo, PubPsych and Cochrane Library. A series of keywords were entered in each database to identify the most recent relevant studies. RESULTS One hundred and sixty-eight articles were identified, of which twenty-nine met the inclusion criteria. The majority explored the determinants of quality of life, depression and anxiety, with a few focusing on psychosocial functioning. Consistently with the literature on psychological morbidity, disease activity and parental stress were also strong predictors of quality of life and psychosocial functioning. New evidence showed that abdominal pain, negative illness perceptions and internalizing symptoms were also common predictors of these outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Some risk factors of quality of life, distress and psychosocial functioning are similar, which could indicate that some patients could be at risk of presenting an accumulation of difficulties adjusting to the disease. The identification of these risk factors is fundamental to propose appropriate interventions. Therapeutic education, therapies focused on pain management or on the parent-child relationship can be considered to allow a better adjustment or prevent difficulties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to implement clinical hypnosis (CH) as an adjunctive therapy for adolescents with Crohn's disease (CD) and to assess the impact of CH on quality of life (QoL), abdominal pain, psychosocial measures, and disease activity compared with standard care. METHODS Forty adolescents with CD were randomized to a hypnosis intervention (HI) or waitlist control (WC) group. The intervention consisted of 1 in-person CH session, self-hypnosis education, and recordings for home practice. Data was collected at baseline, after the 8-week intervention, and at week 16. The primary outcome was patient- and parent-reported QoL; secondary outcomes were patient-reported abdominal pain, depression, anxiety, and sleep; school absences; and disease activity by Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index. Paired and independent t-tests were used to compare differences from baseline to postintervention within and between groups. RESULTS Forty patients (50% girls, mean 15.8 years) were enrolled from February to May 2019. Seventy-eight percent had inactive disease, and 55% had abdominal pain. Post intervention, significant improvements were noted in HI parent-reported QoL compared with WC in total score (P = 0.05), social functioning (P = 0.01), and school functioning (P = 0.04) but patient-reported QoL was unchanged. Abdominal pain severity significantly improved in HI compared with WC (P = 0.03). School absences decreased in significantly more intervention than control patients (P = 0.01). Patients who practiced self-hypnosis consistently showed a trend toward greater QoL improvement than those who did not (P = 0.1). CONCLUSIONS CH is an acceptable and feasible adjunct in CD and may improve psychosocial QoL and abdominal pain. Further research is warranted.

Abstract
Introduction: Quality of life (QOL) is an important patient-reported outcome measure (PROM). Assessment of QOL in children is challenging particularly because developmental age affects the accuracy of self-reports.Areas covered: This paper gives an overview and expert opinion of the factors impacting quality assessment of pediatric QOL. Given this literature is vast, we focused on QOL measurement in pediatric gastroenterological conditions as an example, but the general principles apply across childhood chronic diseases. Child developmental stage affects self-reports. Younger children are less reliable reporters implicating the need for parental proxies. However, parents may not be as cognizant of their child's internal life especially as the child grows older. Adjustment to disease (QOL initially decreases then improves) as well as the time of year (QOL improves during summer) affects reports of QOL. Furthermore, it is important to acknowledge the impact of the child's disease on caregivers and families' QOL.Expert opinion: The numerous aspects impacting pediatric QOL make assessment and measurement complex. We propose several strategies to guide this process such as assessing both self-report and parent-proxy measures, as well as considering the timing of QOL assessments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although abdominal pain is a hallmark symptom of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), limited research has examined pain during the first year after diagnosis. The purpose of the present study is to examine prevalence, predictors, and impact of abdominal pain during the 12 months after pediatric IBD diagnosis using data from the ImproveCareNow (ICN) Network. PATIENTS AND METHODS Participants consisted of 13,875 youth (age 8-18 years, 44% female, 81% Caucasian) with IBD (65% Crohn's disease; 27% ulcerative colitis, 8% indeterminate colitis) enrolled in the ICN Network with data from clinic visits during the first year after diagnosis (1-22 visits; mean = 3.7). Multivariable mixed effects logistic regression models were conducted to analyze the presence versus the absence of abdominal pain, activity limitations, and decrements in well-being. RESULTS The percentage of youth reporting abdominal pain decreased significantly during the first year after diagnosis and yet a sizeable group reported continued pain at 12 months (55.9% at diagnosis; 34.0% at 12 months). Multivariable analyses revealed that greater time since diagnosis (odds ratio [OR] = 0.98, P < 0.001), higher disease severity (OR = 11.84, P < 0.001), presence of psychosocial risk factors (OR = 2.33, P = 0.036), and female sex (OR = 1.90, P < 0.010) were significant correlates of continuing abdominal pain. Abdominal pain was significantly associated with decrements in well-being (OR = 5.11, P < 0.001) as well as limitations in activity (OR = 9.31, P < 0.001), over and above the influence of disease severity. CONCLUSIONS Abdominal pain is prevalent and impactful, even when controlling for disease activity, during the first year after pediatric IBD diagnosis. Results from the present study can inform screening and tailored pain management intervention efforts in pediatric IBD.

Psychogastroenterology: A Cure, Band-Aid, or Prevention? CHILDREN-BASEL 2020; 7:children7090121. [PMID: 32899111 PMCID: PMC7552785 DOI: 10.3390/children7090121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2020] [Revised: 08/27/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Psychogastroenterology is a field that focuses on the brain–gut connection. Many children with gut disorders also struggle with psychological and social factors that affect their disease outcomes. Psychological factors have been suggested to be a cure, a band-aid, or a prevention. This article examines the underlying models of disease and health that determine how we understand and treat psychosocial factors in gut diseases. The biomedical and biopsychosocial models are presented and applied to pediatric gut disorders. This article should familiarize clinicians as well as children and their families to the challenges and opportunities for addressing psychosocial factors in gut disease. Psychogastroenterology is best thought of as a cog in a complex treatment machine.

Orofacial granulomatosis: a questionnaire study among Norwegian dental clinicians. Eur Arch Paediatr Dent 2020; 21:557-564. [PMID: 32020549 PMCID: PMC7518990 DOI: 10.1007/s40368-020-00511-3] [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: 10/03/2019] [Accepted: 01/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Aims To evaluate awareness on orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) and oral Crohn disease (oral CD) among Norwegian dental clinicians. Methods A precoded questionnaire (QuestBack) was sent electronically to dentists and dental hygienists treating children and adolescents in the public dental service (PDS) in Norway. Data on the clinicians’ knowledge of OFG and oral CD related to working experience were analysed by Chi square tests and bivariate logistic regression analyses. Results A total of 1097 clinicians were invited to participate, 778 dentists and 319 dental hygienists; 48.2% returned the completed form. Fifty-four percent of the participants had ≥ 10 year experience of clinical practice. Two-thirds (68.4%) of the dentists and all but one of the dental hygienists graduated in Norway. Approximately half of the respondents were aware of OFG (41.2%) and oral CD (57.8%). One-quarter (24.6%) reported that they most likely had seen a patient with OFG and 20.6% with oral CD. Recently graduated dentists (≤ 10 years ago) were more aware of OFG and oral CD than those who graduated > 10 years ago (p ≤ 0.001). Regarding dental hygienists, this difference was observed for OFG only (p < 0.05). Country of education did not affect the clinicians’ reported knowledge. Approximately 90% would refer a patient suspected of having OFG or oral CD either to a dental specialist or to a physician. Conclusion The high prevalence of clinicians observing OFG and oral CD in this study may indicate that OFG and/or oral CD are under-reported and that OFG in particular is more common than hitherto believed. The high frequency of awareness was promising for the benefit of the patients.

Abstract
Background: There is growing consensus that pain in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is not fully explained by disease-related processes. However, previous studies have largely measured individual biological, psychological, or social risk factors for pain in isolation. Further, not all youth with IBD presenting to clinic will report presence of pain, and those who do vary in their reports of pain intensity. This study therefore extends prior research by determining biopsychosocial correlates of both presence and intensity of pain in adolescents with IBD, in order to inform targeted pain management intervention approaches. Methods: Adolescents with IBD followed at SickKids, Toronto, and their parents were consecutively enrolled from outpatient clinic. IBD characteristics (diagnosis, time since diagnosis, patient-reported disease activity) were collected. Adolescents reported on current pain (NRS-10), internalizing symptoms (Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire), and pain catastrophizing (Pain Catastrophizing Scale-Child). Parents reported on protective responses to child pain (Adult Responses to Child Pain) and pain catastrophizing (Pain Catastrophizing Scale-Child). Hurdle models were conducted to examine predictors of presence and intensity of pain in the same model. Biological (patient-reported disease activity, IBD diagnosis subtype, illness duration), psychological (internalizing symptoms, pain catastrophizing), and social (parent pain catastrophizing, parent protective responses) factors were entered as predictors, adjusting for age and sex. Results: Participants included 100 adolescents (12-18; Mean = 15 years) with IBD (60% Crohn's Disease, 40% Ulcerative Colitis or IBD-unclassified) and 76 parents. The majority of the sample was in clinical remission or reported minimal symptoms. Half of participants reported no current pain; for those reporting pain, intensity ranged 1-7 (M = 3.43, SD = 1.98). Disease activity (OR = 53.91, p < 0.001) and adolescent internalizing symptoms (OR = 7.62, p = 0.03) were significant predictors of presence of pain. Disease activity (RR = 1.37, p = 0.03) and parent protective responses (RR = 1.45, p = 0.02) were significant predictors of intensity of pain. Conclusions: Results suggest that the experience of pain in pediatric IBD is biopsychosocially determined. Patient-reported disease activity and internalizing symptoms predicted presence of pain, while disease activity and parent protective responses predicted intensity of pain. While medical intervention in pediatric IBD is focused on disease management, results suggest that depression/anxiety symptoms as well as parent protective responses may be important targets of pain management interventions in pediatric IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical activity (PA) is essential for children throughout their growth and maturation. It improves physiological and psychological health and limits the risk of developing metabolic disorders. However, some chronic physiological and metabolic diseases may lead to decreased PA. The diversity of outcomes in the literature offers no consensus for physical activity and sedentary levels in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS A literature review and a meta-analysis were carried out with original studies from a Medline database search. Only high-quality studies (STROBE checklist) written in English comparing PA level or sedentary behavior (SB) between children with the disorders and their healthy peers were considered. The aim was to examine PA and SB in children with JIA or IBD compared to their healthy peers. RESULTS The literature review and meta-analysis identified decreased PA and increased time spent in SB in these populations, which may exacerbate both their lower physical fitness and the symptoms of their health disorders. CONCLUSION Results nevertheless show discrepancies due to the different materials and methods used and the variables measured. Further studies are needed to establish a gold standard method for assessing PA level in these populations.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pain is commonly experienced in both active and dormant inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Psychological and social factors, which can be key to pain experience, have been relatively neglected; the only prior comprehensive review focused solely on studies of adults. The present review, therefore, sought to systematically examine relationships between pediatric and adult experience of pain and psychosocial variables.
Method
Systematic searches of 5 databases were conducted to identify studies including measures of pain and psychosocial variables, in pediatric or adult IBD populations. Quality appraisal of studies was undertaken using a qualified assessment tool.
Results
Twenty-three articles met the inclusion criteria. Ten examined relationships between pain and psychosocial variables in adults, and 13 examined in pediatric populations. Inverse relationships were identified between pain and quality of life (QOL) in both populations, with potential differences in pain localization between the two populations. Psychological distress, notably depression, was also important in both populations, with inconsistent evidence for a role for anxiety in pediatric samples. Specific coping styles, and familial responses to communications, also appeared relevant, but with weaker evidence. There was substantial heterogeneity in measures, statistical analyses and sample characteristics, and quality appraisal revealed methodological weaknesses.
Conclusions
Significant relationships were found between pain and various psychological indices, notably QOL and depression. However, most studies were underpowered, did not sufficiently control for key confounds, and almost exclusively reported on Western participants. Adequately powered, statistically sound studies encompassing diverse populations are required to further clarify relationships between pain and psychosocial variables in IBD.

Abstract
Introduction Daily pain experiences are a common feature of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which can negatively influence their health-related quality of life (HRQOL). A holistic, family systems approach is needed to further our understanding of daily pain experiences in youth with IBD and their influence on youth's HRQOL. Objectives The study's objectives were to (1) provide a detailed description of daily pain experiences in youth with IBD, (2) investigate the relative contribution of family functioning and pain in explaining youth's HRQOL, and (3) explore differences in parental and youth perspectives. Methods Sixty youth with IBD (8-17 years) and a parent completed questionnaires to assess family functioning, HRQOL, and pain experiences within the past week. A subsample of 16 youth completed an online diary (7 days) about their pain experiences. Results When including any pain experiences, higher youth-reported family satisfaction and lower pain intensity were related to better HRQOL, whereas higher parent-reported family cohesion and satisfaction indirectly related to youth HRQOL through lower pain intensity. When only accounting for abdominal pain, pain intensity related negatively with HRQOL, and only parent-reported cohesion showed an indirect relation with HRQOL through pain intensity. Diary data revealed large heterogeneity: abdominal pain, described as cramping, sharp, and/or stinging was most frequent, but other pain symptoms (eg, back pain and headache) often co-occurred. Conclusion The findings provide a rich picture of the daily pain experiences of youth with IBD and underscore the importance of a family systems approach to understand how family functioning and pain symptoms influence HRQOL.

Abstract
Canada has among the highest rates of childhood-onset IBD in the world. Over 7000 children and youth under 18 years old are living with IBD in Canada, and 600 to 650 children under 16 years old are diagnosed annually. While the peak age of onset of IBD is highest in the second and third decades of life, over the past two decades incidence has risen most rapidly in children under 5 years old. The treatment of children with IBD presents important challenges including therapeutic choices, risk of adverse events to medications, psychosocial impact on the child and family, increased cost of health care and the implications of the transition from pediatric to adult care. Despite the unique circumstances faced by children and their families, there is a lack of research to help understand the causes of the rising incidence and the best therapies for children with IBD. Scientific evidence—and specifically clinical trials of pharmaceuticals—are too often extrapolated from adult research. Health care providers must strive to understand the unique impact of childhood-onset IBD on patients and families, while researchers must expand work to address the important needs of this growing patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at risk for psychiatric symptoms that impact quality of life (QoL) and psychosocial functioning. Sleep disturbance has been reported to impose adverse effects on host defense mechanisms by affecting the magnitude and characteristics of the inflammatory response. The current study sought to assess the relationships among sleep disturbance, QoL, and psychosocial functioning in children with IBD. METHODS Pediatric IBD patients completed multiple measures of sleep and daytime functioning as well as measures of QoL and psychosocial functioning. The parents completed complementary measures of sleep, QoL, and psychosocial functioning. The HRQOL results for subjects with IBD were compared to a healthy control group. RESULTS Fifty-three children with pediatric IBD and their parents were enrolled in the study. QoL was positively associated with sleep quality, based on significant negative correlations between QoL and both sleep quality and daytime sleepiness scales (r = -0.62, -0.57; p value <0.001, respectively). Patients with CD reported significantly better QoL and psychosocial functioning than patients with UC. The QoL was similar between IBD patients and healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that a positive association exists between sleep functioning and QoL in pediatric patients with IBD. Patients with pediatric IBD should be screened for sleep disturbance, QoL and psychosocial functioning. Prevention and intervention strategies of sleep disturbance aimed at improving QoL and psychosocial functioning in children with IBD should be developed and evaluated.
