Systematic review: body composition in adults with inflammatory bowel disease

Abstract: SUMMARY BackgroundThere is a paucity of data on body composition in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Alterations of fat and muscle may affect bone health, muscle performance, quality of life (QoL) and overall morbidity.

“…Symptoms of acute disease (such as diarrhea, malabsorption, and decreased dietary intake) and the presence of chronic inflammation may lead to malnutrition and altered body composition as well. Bryan et al recently reviewed the corresponding literature comparing the body composition of IBD patients and healthy controls (27). However, the number of patients was relatively low in the studies included; besides, the methodology of the measurements was heterogeneous as they used different DEXA and BIA instruments.…”

“…hypertriglyceridemia, change in LDL composition, increase in HDL), and weight gain, mainly at the expense of increased abdominal and visceral fat. 25 Since anti-TNF therapy controls the inflammatory state and induces remission in moderate to severe CD, it is possible that after this intervention an increase in body weight, LM and PA of these patients may be observed. In this context, our study was designed to evaluate the impact of anti-TNFα therapy on body composition and PA in patients with active CD.…”

“…[13][14][15] Even in patients with IBD, there is a trend to equivalent or even higher fat mass and/or body mass index compared with age-and sex-matched HC in contrast with the archetypal, malnourished and cachectic IBD patient of times past. 16 Research into sleep quality and physical activity is hampered in this field by the difficulties of accurate, objective measurement, the expense and inconvenience of tools such as polysomnography and for the purposes of clinical applicability, the need to measure these in a habitual context with subjects performing their normal daily activities. Triaxial accelerometers overcome many if not all of these obstacles and strongly correlate with 'gold standard' testing such as formal polysomnography.…”
