Lemmens AS, Huysentruyt K, Vandenplas Y. Why think twice before prescribing proton pump inhibitors. Eur J Pediatr 2025; 184:227. [PMID: 40042553 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-025-06058-z] [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: 12/28/2024] [Revised: 02/20/2025] [Accepted: 02/24/2025] [Indexed: 03/26/2025]
Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) represent a class of drugs most prominently known for their use in acid-related disorders. Omeprazole, a drug belonging to this class, is among the top 10 most prescribed drugs in the USA. PPIs have a direct effect on the gastric pH and therefore on the gastric mucosa. This review aims to present the most common adverse effects PPIs have on the gastric mucosa in particular. CONCLUSION PPIs affect the composition of gut and gastric microbiota and will eventually modulate the immune response. WHAT IS KNOWN • Proton-pump inhibitors are amonth the most frequent prescirbed drugs becasue of their well demonstrated efficacy in acid-related disorders. • Because of their mode of action and their metabolism, a large spectrum of adversee effects have been reported. WHAT IS NEW • Although the well-known success of PPIs in the wide spectrum of all acid-related conditions should not refrain health care professionals to use them when indicated, insufficient attention is given to the multiple adverse effects reported for this class of drugs. • Well designed prospective trials collecting adverse effects are required, since most studies reporting adverse effects are retrospective, are biassed and have methodological issues.

Abstract
We report the first case of collagenous colitis attributed to perindopril use, in a 90-year-old woman. The patient developed diarrhea with hypokalemia, 3 weeks after perindopril was introduced in her medications for uncontrolled hypertension. Significant thickening of the basal epithelial membrane (up to 80 μm) was found on random colon biopsies. Diarrhea resolved within 3 days after perindopril withdrawal. Four months later, left colon biopsies revealed a normalization of the basal membrane thickness. The intrinsic imputability of perindopril as the causative agent of microscopic colitis is considered to be reasonable by the French accountability technique. There was no rechallenge test conducted.

Abstract
The use of acid suppression therapy (AST) is a common approach for managing a wide spectrum of acid peptic disorders. Histamine type 2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most widely prescribed AST in routine clinical practice. However, an exponential surge in the prescriptions of PPIs, such as Omeprazole, Esomeprazole, Pantoprazole, Lansoprazole in recent years and their associated adverse effects have raised concern about their inappropriate and overuse, both in children and adults. To address these issues, a three-step modified Delphi polling process was employed to establish best practice consensus statements for rationalizing the use of acid suppressants. A multidisciplinary expert panel of 13 health professionals across medical specialties, including gastroenterologists, hepatologists, pediatric gastroenterologists, pediatricians, otolaryngologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, gynecologist and orthopedists actively contributed to this collaborative process of consensus development. The expert panel proposed 21 consensus statements providing best practice points on the general use and safety of acid suppressants based on a comprehensive review of scientific literature and clinical expertise. The panel also collaboratively developed a PPI deprescribing algorithm. Altogether, this consensus paper offers evidence-based recommendations and guidance for the rational use of acid suppressants with a blueprint for deprescribing PPIs. This consensus paper contributes to aiding primary care practitioners in improving patient outcomes and minimizing healthcare costs. Additionally, it enhances patient safety and curtail inappropriate usage. How to cite this article Prabhoo RY, Pai UA, Wadhwa A, et al.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Collagenous colitis is an inflammatory disease characterized by hyperplasia of the collagen band beneath the colonic mucous membrane. Chronic diarrhea is a characteristic clinical symptom. The disease is often diagnosed accidentally on colonoscopy for chronic diarrhea, and patients without chronic diarrhea have few chances to suspect the disease. PRESENTATION OF CASE The patient was a 75-year-old woman. The chief complaint was sudden upper abdominal pain and vomiting. There were no important findings regarding the consumed food or bowel habits (no diarrhea). Computed tomography revealed wall thickness and a small amount of free air around the descending colon. An emergency laparotomy was performed with the diagnosis of spontaneous colonic perforation. Intra-operative findings revealed a longitudinal ulcer and micro-perforation to the mesenterial side at the descending colon. Pathological findings revealed subepithelial collagenous band in the submucosal background of the ulcer, and which was diagnosed as collagenous colitis. DISCUSSION Intestinal perforation in collagenous colitis is extremely rare. It was considered that perforation was caused by a transient increase in intestinal pressure in the background of collagenous colitis. Further, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a critical case which presented without the characteristic symptom of chronic diarrhea. CONCLUSION We report a rare case of colonic perforation of the collagenous colitis.

Abstract
Herein, we present a case of collagenous colitis in a patient who underwent chemotherapy for gastric cancer, comprising five cycles of S-1 plus oxaliplatin and trastuzumab, followed by five cycles of paclitaxel and ramucirumab and seven cycles of nivolumab. The subsequent initiation of trastuzumab deruxtecan chemotherapy led to the development of grade 3 diarrhea after the second cycle of treatment. Collagenous colitis was diagnosed via colonoscopy and biopsy. The patient's diarrhea improved following the cessation of lansoprazole. This case highlights the importance of considering collagenous colitis as a differential diagnosis, in addition to chemotherapy-induced colitis and immune-related adverse event (irAE) colitis, in patients with similar clinical presentations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pharmacovigilance risk signals have proposed a relationship between the use of acid-suppressive medications and the development of certain autoimmune and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. OBJECTIVE A systematic review and a meta-analysis was performed. METHODS We reviewed MEDLINE (Ovid) and Scopus for comparative observational studies between these diseases and previous exposure to proton-pump inhibitors (PPI), H2-receptor antagonists (H2RA), and antacids. The protocol was registered on the PROSPERO database (CRD42020192715). RESULTS From 3,191 citations, 25 articles were eligible and covered 16 diseases. Microscopic colitis (MC) was studied the most (7 studies). In a random-effects meta-analysis, there was low certainty evidence (GRADE approach) of a non-significant relationship between exposure to any PPIs and MC (meta-OR 3.28, 95% CI 0.98-11.0, I2 98.2%, six studies, 4,436 PPI-exposed MC patients). Moderate certainty evidence pointed towards large odds of collagenous colitis after exposure to lansoprazole (meta-OR 14.5, 95% CI 9.37-22.3, I2 10.2%, three studies, 1,725 lansoprazole-exposed patients). After PPI exposure, the risk of rheumatoid arthritis was slightly increased based on low certainty evidence from two cohort studies totaling 475 diagnoses (meta-RR 1.62, 95% CI 1.12-2.34, I2 34.5%). CONCLUSIONS In patients with MC, it would be reasonable to carefully review the indication of PPI, especially in CC patients using lansoprazole.

Are Drugs Associated with Microscopic Colitis? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Diseases 2022; 11:diseases11010006. [PMID: 36648871 PMCID: PMC9844498 DOI: 10.3390/diseases11010006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
There is growing evidence of the association of Microscopic Colitis (MC) with the use of specific medications such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), Non-Steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), Statins and H2-receptor antagonists (H2RA). In our study, we calculated the pooled odds of MC in patients using these drugs. We performed a detailed search of major databases, including PubMed/Medline, Scopus, web of science, and Embase, to include the studies in which odds of MC were reported after using above mentioned drugs. A random-effects model was used to pool the estimates. Thirteen studies were included in our analysis consisting of 304,482 patients (34,194 cases and 270,018 controls). In eight studies, the control group consisted of a random population selected based on age, gender and same birth year, whereas 3 studies recruited patients who presented with diarrhea and underwent colonoscopy and biopsy to rule out MC. Two studies reported odds of MC for both diarrhea and random control groups. Patients taking PPIs were more likely to develop MC, AOR 2.65 (95% CI 1.81-3.50, I2 98.13%). Similarly, higher odds of association were found in patients taking SSRIs (OR 2.12, 95% CI 1.27-2.96, I2 96.46%), NSAIDs (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.33-2.70, I2 92.70%) and Statins (OR 1.74, 95% CI 1.19-2.30, I2 96.36%). No difference in odds of developing MC was seen in patients using H2RA compared to the control group (OR 2.70, 95% CI 0.32-5.08, I2 98.67%). We performed a subgroup analysis based on the control group and found higher odds of MC in patients on PPIs compared to the random control group (OR 4.55, 95% CI 2.90-6.19, I2 98.13%). Similarly, higher odds of MC were noted for SSRI (OR 3.23, 95% CI 1.54-4.92, I2 98.31%), NSAIDs (OR 3.27, 95% CI 2.06-4.48, I2 95.38%), and Statins (OR 2.23, 95% CI 1.41-3.06, I2 98.11%) compared to the random control group. Contrary lower odds of MC were seen in the PPI and H2RA group compared to the diarrhea control group (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.48-0.88, I2 7.26%), (OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.14-0.78, I2 0%) respectively. We found no difference in odds of MC in patients on SSRIs (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.49-1.42, I2 37.89%), NSAIDs (OR 1.13, 95% CI 0.49-1.76, I2 59.37%) Statins (OR 0.91, 95% 0.66-1.17, I2 0%) and H2RA (OR 3.48, 95% CI -0.41-7.36, I2 98.89%) compared to the diarrhea control group. We also analyzed the association use of PPIs and NSAIDs with the development of collagenous colitis (CC) and lymphocytic colitis. Only the use of NSAIDs was associated with increased odds of developing collagenous colitis (OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.50-1.72, I2 0%). No increased odds of CC and LC were seen in PPI users. PPIs, NSAIDs, SSRIs, and Statins are associated with an increased risk of MC compared to the random control group. On the contrary, the use of PPIs, NSAIDs, SSRIs, and Statins is not associated with an increased risk of MC when compared to the diarrhea control group.

Abstract
Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that is characterized by nonbloody watery diarrhea. The epidemiology in Japan differs from that in Europe and the United States, but little information is available from epidemiological surveys of MC in Japan. This study aimed to provide a new hypothesis regarding the factors associated with MC by using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database. "Colitis microscopic" (preferred term code: 10056979) cases entered into the JADER database between 2004 and 2021 were analyzed. Of the 246,997 cases in the JADER database, 161 cases were observed to be associated with MC. A Weibull analysis revealed that the median onset duration of MC (interquartile range) was 72.5 (36.0‒125.5) days in lansoprazole users and 116.0 (60.3‒1089.0) days in aspirin users. A multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that MC was significantly associated with the female sex, as well as ages ≥ 60 years and drugs including lansoprazole, aspirin, and nicorandil. A subset analysis revealed that MC was positively associated with obesity in female cases. Our study cannot demonstrate a causal inference between MC and each drug; however, the findings suggest that MC was associated with nicorandil as well as with lansoprazole and aspirin.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microscopic colitis is a relatively common cause of chronic diarrhea and may be linked to luminal factors. Given the essential role of the microbiome in human gut health, analysis of microbiome changes associated with microscopic colitis could provide insights into the development of the disease. METHODS We enrolled patients who underwent colonoscopy for diarrhea. An experienced pathologist classified patients as having microscopic colitis (n = 52) or controls (n = 153). Research biopsies were taken from the ascending (ASC) and descending (DES) colon, and the microbiome was characterized with Illumina sequencing. We analyzed the associations between microscopic colitis and microbiome with a series of increasingly complex models adjusted for a range of demographic and health factors. RESULTS We found that alpha diversity was significantly lower in cases with microscopic colitis compared with that in controls in the DES colon microbiome. In the DES colon, a series of models that adjusted for an increasing number of covariates found taxa significantly associated with microscopic colitis, including Proteobacteria that was enriched in cases and Collinsella that was enriched in controls. While the alpha diversity and taxa were not significantly associated with microscopic colitis in the ASC colon microbiome, the inference P values based on ASC and DES microbiomes were highly correlated. DISCUSSION Our study demonstrates an altered microbiome in cases with microscopic colitis compared with that in controls. Because both the cases and controls experienced diarrhea, we have identified candidate taxa that could be mechanistically responsible for the development of microscopic colitis independent of changes to the microbial community caused by diarrhea.

Abstract
Background/Aims Transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) is an accepted anatomic treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease in selected patients. In this report, we analyze our institution’s programmatic allocation of resources during the safe implementation of TIF as a new procedure.
Methods A retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent TIF from January 2020 to February 2021 at our institution was performed. The process of initially allocating the operating room (OR) with overnight admission and postoperative esophagram for added safety, and subsequently transitioning TIF to the endoscopy suite (ES) as an outpatient procedure was described. Patient safety and outcomes were evaluated during transition.
Results Thirty patients who underwent TIF were identified. The mean age was 51.2±16.0 years. TIF was performed in an OR in nine patients (30%) and 21 (70%) in the ES. All the OR patients were admitted overnight and had routine esophagogram. In contrast, four (19%) from the ES group required clinically-indicated admission and three (14.2%) required esophagram. The mean procedure duration was significantly lower in the ES group (65.7 min vs. 84 min, p=0.02).
Conclusions A stepwise, resource-efficient process was described that allowed safe initiation of TIF as a new technique and its effective transition to a fully outpatient procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication consumption has been suggested as a risk factor for microscopic colitis (MC), but studies of varying design have yielded inconsistent results. Our aim was to evaluate the association between medications and MC. METHODS A hybrid cohort of prospectively identified patients undergoing colonoscopy with biopsies for suspicion of MC (N = 144) and patients with MC enrolled within three months of diagnosis into an MC registry (N = 59) were surveyed on medication use. Medication use was compared between patients with and without diagnosis of MC by chi-squared test and binomial logistic regression adjusted for known risk factors of MC: age and gender. RESULTS In total, 80 patients with MC (21 new, 59 registry) were enrolled. Patients with MC were more likely to be older (p = 0.03) and female (p = 0.01) compared to those without MC. Aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were more commonly used among patients who developed MC (p < 0.01). After controlling for age and gender, these medications remained independent predictors of MC with odds ratio for any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use of 3.04 (95% CI: 1.65-5.69). No association between MC and other previously implicated medications including proton pump inhibitors and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors was found. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of patients with chronic diarrhea, we found use of aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, but not other implicated medications to be associated with the development of MC. Whether these drugs trigger colonic inflammation in predisposed hosts or worsen diarrhea in undiagnosed patients is unclear. However, we feel that these findings are sufficient to discuss potential non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug cessation in patients newly diagnosed with MC.

Abstract
IntroductionEvidence suspects proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use is a risk factor of poor prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aimed to investigate the association between pre-existing PPI use before emergency department (ED) visit and short-term prognosis of AMI patients.Materials and MethodsAMI patients admitted to ED were included and categorized as cohorts with or without pre-existing PPI use. Hospital mortality, length of hospital stay, being admitted to intensive care unit (ICU), and length of (total) ICU stay were studied as prognostic outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression or linear regression were used to estimate the associations between pre-existing PPI use and the outcomes after adjusting for potential confounders.ResultsA total of 2001 AMI patients were included. No significant difference was found in hospital mortality and length of ICU stay between cohorts; patients with pre-existing PPI use showed a significantly longer length of hospital stay (median 3.81 vs. 3.20 days, P = 0.002) but lower proportion of being admitted to ICU (25.59% vs. 40.83%, P < 0.001) compared to those without pre-existing PPI use. Pre-existing PPI use was not associated with hospital mortality [odds ratio (OR) 1.08, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58–1.99], length of hospital stay (β = 0.23, 95% CI −0.35 to 0.82), and length of ICU stay (β = −0.18, 95% CI −1.06 to 0.69), but was statistically significantly associated with lower risk of being admitted to ICU (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.52–0.92).ConclusionThe current study does not support newly diagnosed AMI patients with pre-existing PPI use before ED visit would experience worse short-term prognosis than those without.

Abstract
Objectives Cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors occasionally show persistent diarrhea accompanied by endoscopic features of ulcerative colitis. The endoscopic mucosal inflammation may appear mild in some patients compared to the clinical severity, which can make choosing a treatment challenging. In this study, we evaluated the factors that support the continuation of chemotherapy by assessing the endoscopic and histopathological characteristics of patients who experienced diarrhea after immune checkpoint inhibitor administration. Methods This study included eight patients who were diagnosed with collagenous colitis based on pathological assessments. We retrospectively investigated these patients’ backgrounds, laboratory data, and computed tomography images that were extracted from their medical records. We also summarized their endoscopic and pathologic findings. Results All eight patients were being treated with anti‐programmed cell death‐1/programmed cell death‐ligand 1 therapeutic agents and had a recent history of oral proton pump inhibitor therapy. The anti‐programmed cell death‐1‐related collagenous colitis in these cases was characterized by endoscopically mild mucosal inflammation, high fecal calprotectin levels, and a lower frequency of intestinal wall thickening on computed tomography. Histological assessments showed CD8+ lymphocytes predominantly infiltrating the lamina propria and crypts of the colonic mucosa. Suspending the proton pump inhibitor therapy relieved the patients’ symptoms and allowed the continuation of the anti‐programmed cell death‐1/programmed cell death‐ligand 1 therapy. Conclusions Anti‐programmed cell death‐1‐related collagenous colitis is reversible; appropriate diagnosis of adverse events is crucial for the continuation of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM There is controversy about colonoscopy and taking biopsy from the normal colonic mucosa in patients with a clinical diagnosis of diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS). This study aims to estimate the prevalence of microscopic colitis (MC) in D-IBS patients and to select patients without the well-known alarming features who will benefit from colonoscopy and biopsies from the normal colonic mucosa. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a cohort cross-sectional study over 6 months duration in a total of 129 patients with Rome III criteria of D-IBS after excluding cases with features of organic diseases. Cases were subjected to colonoscopy and biopsies from the colonic mucosa that seemed normal. RESULTS Histopathologic examination of biopsies taken from cases with normal colonic mucosa revealed 86 (71.66%) cases with nonspecific colitis, 26 (21.66%) cases with MC and 8 (6.66%) cases with ulcerative colitis. Concomitant immunologic diseases (P=0.00005) and triggering drugs intake (P=0.006) were significantly more common in the MC group. The mean duration of diarrhea in MC patients was significantly longer than that of nonspecific colitis and ulcerative colitis patients (P=0.0006). CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of MC in D-IBS patients from Upper Egypt is relatively high (21.66%). Concomitant immunologic diseases, possible triggering drugs intake, and long duration of diarrhea are significant risk factors for undiagnosed MC in D-IBS patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Microscopic colitis [MC], encompassing collagenous colitis [CC] and lymphocytic colitis [LC], is an increasingly prevalent gastrointestinal disease with an unknown aetiology. Previous research has reported significant differences in the incidence of MC within Denmark, with the lowest incidence found in the most populated region [Capital Region of Denmark]. Our aim was to elucidate the causes of these regional differences. DESIGN All incident MC patients [n = 14 302] with a recorded diagnosis of CC [n = 8437] or LC [n = 5865] entered in The Danish Pathology Register between 2001 and 2016 were matched to 10 reference individuals [n = 142 481]. Information regarding drug exposure, including proton pump inhibitors [PPIs], selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs], statins, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], were retrieved from The Danish National Prescription Registry. Information regarding endoscopy rate, smoking-related diseases, and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases were acquired from The Danish National Patient Registry. RESULTS Smoking, immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, exposure to PPIs, SSRIs, statins, and NSAIDs were significantly associated with MC in all Danish regions. The association between drug exposure and MC was weakest in the Capital Region of Denmark with an odds ratio of 1.8 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.61-2.01). The relative risk of undergoing a colonoscopy with biopsy was significantly increased in sex- and age-matched controls in all regions compared with controls from the Capital Region of Denmark, with the greatest risk found in the Region of Southern Denmark, 1.37 [95% CI: 1.26-1.50]. CONCLUSIONS The cause of the regional differences in MC incidence in Denmark seems to be multifactorial, including variations in disease awareness and distribution of risk factors.

Abstract
Drug-drug interactions represent a topic of great interest, not only due to the risk of unexpected adverse events but also due to the possibility of altering the effectiveness of a specific treatment. Inappropriate or concomitant use of drugs can often lead to changes in the bioavailability of various compounds, resulting in pharmacokinetic alterations. A recent example is the concomitant administration of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and anticancer agents. PPIs are overused beyond their classic indications, resulting in a high risk of interactions with other drugs, such as anticancer agents, both PO and intravenous. However, the real clinical impact of concomitant acid suppression therapy and anticancer therapies remains controversial and is not yet fully understood. Certainly, the gut microbiota plays a key role in regulating the response of the immune system, and PPIs can significantly alter the gut microbiome, resulting in gut dysbiosis. Indeed, while the link sometimes appears to lead to negative outcomes, as in the case of immunotherapy, oral capecitabine, or tyrosine kinase inhibitors, in other cases, it seems to enhance the effectiveness of intravenous chemotherapy. In this review, I analyse the possible drug interactions between PPIs and the main classes of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Microscopic colitis (MC) is an inflammatory disease of the large intestine associated with urgent watery diarrhoea. MC may occur in people of all ages, although the disease primarily affects older women. Once believed to be rare, MC is now known to be a common cause of chronic watery diarrhoea in high-income countries, affecting 1 in 115 women and 1 in 286 men during their lifetime in Swedish population-based estimates. An inappropriate immune response to disturbances in the gut microenvironment is implicated in the pathogenesis of MC. Evidence also supports an underlying genetic basis for disease. The diagnosis of MC relies on clinical symptoms and microscopic assessment of colonic biopsy samples. MC is categorized histologically into collagenous colitis, lymphocytic colitis and their incomplete forms. The mainstay of treatment includes the use of budesonide, with or without adjunctive therapies, and withdrawal of offending drugs. Emerging studies suggest a role for biologicals and immunosuppressive therapies for the management of budesonide-refractory or budesonide-dependent disease. MC can have a substantial negative effect on patient quality of life. The outlook for MC includes a better understanding of the immune response, genetics and the microbiome in disease pathogenesis along with progress in disease management through robust clinical trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microscopic colitis is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterised by normal or almost normal endoscopic appearance of the colon, chronic watery, nonbloody diarrhoea and distinct histological abnormalities, which identify three histological subtypes, the collagenous colitis, the lymphocytic colitis and the incomplete microscopic colitis. With ongoing uncertainties and new developments in the clinical management of microscopic colitis, there is a need for evidence-based guidelines to improve the medical care of patients suffering from this disorder. METHODS Guidelines were developed by members from the European Microscopic Colitis Group and United European Gastroenterology in accordance with the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II instrument. Following a systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation methodology was used to assess the certainty of the evidence. Statements and recommendations were developed by working groups consisting of gastroenterologists, pathologists and basic scientists, and voted upon using the Delphi method. RESULTS These guidelines provide information on epidemiology and risk factors of microscopic colitis, as well as evidence-based statements and recommendations on diagnostic criteria and treatment options, including oral budesonide, bile acid binders, immunomodulators and biologics. Recommendations on the clinical management of microscopic colitis are provided based on evidence, expert opinion and best clinical practice. CONCLUSION These guidelines may support clinicians worldwide to improve the clinical management of patients with microscopic colitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are known to increase the risk of mortality and cardiovascular events in the general population. However, in patients with maintenance hemodialysis, PPI effects are under investigated. METHODS We analyzed the risk of PPIs for cardiovascular events using the Kagoshima Dialysis (KIDS) registry, a prospective, multicenter, observational study in patients with maintenance hemodialysis in Japan. RESULTS In all, 531 patients were enrolled from June 2015 to December 2018. One-year follow-up data were available for 376 patients (Use of PPIs at baseline (PPI group): 217 patients and without PPIs (No PPI group): 159 patients). The incidence of a composite outcome (all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or non-fatal stroke) was higher in patients in the PPI group than the No PPI group (15.2% vs. 4.4%; hazard ratio (HR): 3.65, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.61-8.23, P = 0.002). In the multivariate analysis, even after adjustment for covariates, the use of PPIs was an independent risk factor for a composite outcome (HR: 2.38, 95% CI: 1.02-5.54, P = 0.045). We performed propensity score matching analysis as a sensitivity analysis, showing a consistent result. The incidence of bleeding showed no difference between the two groups (15.7% vs. 11.3%; HR: 1.46, 95% CI: 0.83-2.59, P = 0.19). CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that the use of PPIs in patients with maintenance hemodialysis might increase mortality and cardiovascular events without decreasing the risk of bleeding. Therefore, it should always be analyzed if a patient truly needs PPIs.

Abstract
A substantial volume of literature exists linking proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use with a multitude of serious adverse events. There is uncertainty, however, over whether these associations are clinically important. Excessive concern about PPI-related adverse events may leave patients at risk of harm by leaving acid-related upper gastrointestinal disease untreated. Conversely, the risk of treatments may outweigh the benefits if any of the purported adverse events are directly caused by PPI use; this is of particular concern where indications for PPI use are not present. In this paper, we review the studies which have reported associations between adverse events and PPI use, discuss the proposed mechanisms of action, grade the confidence in whether these associations are truly causal, and provide advice regarding balancing the benefits of PPI use against their possible harms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Collagenous colitis [CC] is a common idiopathic cause of chronic watery diarrhoea. We investigated its pathogenesis by means of gene expression analysis. METHODS We analysed the expression of genes implicated in immunological and inflammatory pathways in paired colonic biopsies of histologically involved and uninvolved mucosa from five patients with histologically patchy CC, in pooled colonic biopsies of eight other patients with diffuse CC, and in pooled biopsies of eight normal controls. Analyses were performed with the Nanostring nCounter system. Expression ratios were generated and confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. RESULTS CC mucosa was characterized by enhanced expression of nitric oxide synthase 2; of matrix metalloproteinases 3 and 9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1, but not transforming growth factor β1; of mediators of T-helper 1 immunity including interleukins 12A [IL12A], 12B, IL12 receptor B1 and interferon γ; of immune mediators of the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor subfamily B; and of multiple T cell cytokines and their receptors. The mitogen-activated protein kinase signalling pathway was unchanged. There were no increases in IL22, IL22RA2 or tumour necrosis factor α, which are reportedly elevated in chronic inflammatory bowel disease. In four of five patients with patchy CC, similar gene expression profiles were observed in histologically involved and uninvolved mucosa. CONCLUSIONS CC is characterized by altered expression of a limited repertoire of genes involved in nitric oxide synthesis, extracellular matrix remodelling, T-helper 1 immunity and immune modulation. The abnormal gene expression in patchy CC may be expressed in mucosa with and without histological disease manifestations.

Abstract
Despite being the most essential nutrient, water is commonly forgotten in the fields of pharmacy and nutrition. Hydration status is determined by water balance (the difference between water input and output). Hypohydration or negative water balance is affected by numerous factors, either internal (i.e., a lack of thirst sensation) or external (e.g., polypharmacy or chronic consumption of certain drugs). However, to date, research on the interaction between hydration status and drugs/excipients has been scarce. Drugs may trigger the appearance of hypohydration by means of the increase of water elimination through either diarrhea, urine or sweat; a decrease in thirst sensation or appetite; or the alteration of central thermoregulation. On the other hand, pharmaceutical excipients induce alterations in hydration status by decreasing the gastrointestinal transit time or increasing the gastrointestinal tract rate or intestinal permeability. In the present review, we evaluate studies that focus on the effects of drugs/excipients on hydration status. These studies support the aim of monitoring the hydration status in patients, mainly in those population segments with a higher risk, to avoid complications and associated pathologies, which are key axes in both pharmaceutical care and the field of nutrition.

Identification of Menopausal and Reproductive Risk Factors for Microscopic Colitis-Results From the Nurses' Health Study. Gastroenterology 2018; 155:1764-1775.e2. [PMID: 30144433 PMCID: PMC6279488 DOI: 10.1053/j.gastro.2018.08.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2018] [Revised: 07/20/2018] [Accepted: 08/05/2018] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Microscopic colitis is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the colon primarily affecting postmenopausal women. However, the relation between hormonal determinants, including reproductive and menopausal factors, and risk of microscopic colitis has yet to be characterized. METHODS We collected data from 227,766 women who participated in the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and the NHSII without a baseline history of microscopic colitis. Reproductive and menopausal factors were assessed in 1988 in the NHS and 1989 in the NHSII and updated biennially. Cases of microscopic colitis were confirmed through review of pathology records. We used Cox proportional hazards modeling to estimate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS Through 2014 in the NHS and 2015 in the NHSII, we confirmed 275 incident cases of microscopic colitis over 5,147,282 person-years. Compared with never use, current use of menopausal hormone therapy was associated with increased risk of microscopic colitis (multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio 2.64; 95% confidence interval 1.78-3.90). The risk increased with longer duration of use (P for trend < .0001) and decreased after discontinuation (P for trend = .002). The association did not differ according to disease subtype (P for heterogeneity = .34). Similarly, ever use of oral contraceptives was associated with increased risk of microscopic colitis (multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio 1.57; 95% confidence interval 1.16-2.13). There were no associations between age at menarche, parity, age at first birth, age at menopause, or menopause type and incident microscopic colitis. CONCLUSIONS In 2 large prospective cohort studies, we observed an association between exogenous hormone use and incident microscopic colitis. Further studies are needed to determine the mechanisms underlying these associations.

Abstract
Several studies have indicated an overlap between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and various functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs). The overlapping conditions reported have mainly been functional dyspepsia (FD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The available literature is frequently based on symptomatic questionnaires or endoscopic procedures to diagnose GERD. Rarely, among patients with heartburn, pathophysiological evaluations have been considered to differentiate those with proven GERD from those without. Moreover, both GERD and IBS or FD showed enormous heterogeneity in terms of the criteria and diagnostic procedures used. The GERD-IBS overlap ranges from 3-79% in questionnaire-based studies and from 10-74% when GERD has been diagnosed endoscopically. The prevalence of functional dyspepsia (after normal upper endoscopy) is 12-15% and an overlap with GERD has been reported frequently. Only a few studies have considered a potential overlap between functional heartburn (FH) and IBS using a 24-h pH-metry or impedance-pH evaluation. Similar data has been reported for an overlap between FH and FD. Recently, a revision of the Rome criteria for esophageal FGIDs identified both FH and hypersensitive esophagus (HE) as potential functional esophageal disorders. This might increase the potential overlap between different FGIDs, with FH and HE rather than with GERD. The aim of the present review article was to appraise and discuss the current evidence supporting the possible concomitance of GERD with IBS and FD in the same patients and to evaluate how various GERD treatments could impact on the quality of life of these patients.

Abstract
AIM Previous studies have found an increased risk for microscopic colitis (MC) associated with proton pump inhibitors. In patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD), proton pump inhibitors have been associated with an increased risk for IBD flares and impaired outcomes. The aim of this study was to test the epidemiological associations between gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and MC, UC or CD in a large database. METHOD The Miraca Life Sciences Database is a national electronic repository of histopathological records of patients distributed throughout the entire USA. A case-control study evaluated whether the presence of Barrett's metaplasia, erosive oesophagitis on endoscopy or histological signs of reflux oesophagitis, clinical diagnosis of GERD or any GERD type affected the occurrence of MC, UC or CD among 228 506 subjects undergoing bidirectional endoscopy. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to calculate ORs and their 95% CI for the risk of MC, UC or CD associated with various types of GERD and were adjusted for age, sex and presence of Helicobacter pylori. RESULTS The analysis revealed an inverse relationship between GERD and different types of inflammatory bowel disease. The inverse relationships applied similarly to MC (mean = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.58-0.66), UC (mean = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81-0.97) and CD (mean = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.69-0.85). It also applied to different forms of GERD, with a trend towards more pronounced inverse relationships associated with Barrett's metaplasia or erosive oesophagitis than clinical diagnosis of GERD. CONCLUSION Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease is inversely associated with all forms of inflammatory bowel disease, such as MC, UC, or CD.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) potently inhibit gastric acid secretion and are widely used for treatment of acid-related diseases including gastroesophageal reflux disease and secondary prevention of aspirin/NSAID-induced ulcers. Although clinically important adverse effects of PPIs can occur, just as with other drugs, those are not frequently observed during or after administration. Thus, PPIs are regarded as relatively safe and considered to be clinically beneficial. Recently, PPIs have become frequently administered to patients with functional gastrointestinal diseases or primary prevention of drug-related gastroduodenal damage, even though their beneficial effects for those conditions have not been fully confirmed. PPIs tend to be given for conditions in which the necessity of the drug has not been clarified, thus otherwise rare adverse effects are presented as clinically relevant. Although several PPI-related adverse effects have been reported, their clinical relevance is not yet clear, since the evidence reported in those studies is not at a high enough level, as the majority are based on retrospective observational studies and the reported hazard ratios are low. It is important to administer PPIs only for patients who will gain a substantial clinical benefit and to continue to investigate their adverse effects with high quality prospective studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term data on the influence of smoking on risk of microscopic colitis are limited. We therefore sought to examine and characterize the association between smoking and risk of incident microscopic colitis in two large prospective cohorts of women. METHODS We conducted a prospective study of 231015 women enrolled in the Nurses' Health Study [NHS] and NHSII. Information regarding smoking, other lifestyle factors and medications were collected biennially from 1976 to 2012 in NHS and from 1989 to 2013 in NHSII. Incident cases of microscopic colitis were confirmed through physician medical record review. We used Cox proportional hazards modelling to examine the association between smoking and risk of microscopic colitis. RESULTS We documented 166 incident cases of microscopic colitis over 6122779 person-years of follow up. Compared to non-smokers, the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio [HR] for microscopic colitis was 2.52 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.59-4.00) amongst current smokers and 1.54 [95% CI 1.09-2.17] amongst past smokers. The risk increased with higher pack-years of smoking [p trend = 0.001] and diminished following smoking cessation [p trend = 0.017]. Current smoking appeared to be more strongly associated with risk of collagenous colitis [HR 3.68; 95% CI 1.94-6.97] than lymphocytic colitis [HR 1.71; 95% CI 0.83-3.53]. CONCLUSION In two large prospective cohort studies, we observed an association between current smoking and risk of microscopic colitis. Risk of microscopic colitis appeared to increase with higher pack-years and diminish following smoking cessation. Future studies focused on characterizing the biological mechanisms underlying these associations are warranted.

Abstract
Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most effective therapy for the full spectrum of gastric-acid-related diseases. However, in the past decade, a steadily increasing list of complications following long-term use of PPIs has been reported. Their potent acid-suppressive action induces several structural and functional changes within the gastric mucosa, including fundic gland polyps, enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia and hypergastrinaemia, which can be exaggerated in the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection. As discussed in this Review, most associations of PPIs with severe adverse events are not based on sufficient evidence because of confounding factors and a lack of plausible mechanisms. Thus, a causal relationship remains unproven in most associations, and further studies are needed. Awareness of PPI-associated risks should not lead to anxiety in patients but rather should induce the physician to consider the appropriate dosing and duration of PPI therapy, including long-term monitoring strategies in selected groups of patients because of their individual comorbidities and risk factors.

Abstract
Of the numerous gaseous substances that can act as signaling molecules, the best characterized are nitric oxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulfide. Contributions of each of these low molecular weight substances, alone or in combination, to maintenance of gastrointestinal mucosal integrity have been established. There is considerable overlap in the actions of these gases in modulating mucosal defense and responses to injury, and in some instances they act in a cooperative manner. Each also play important roles in regulating inflammatory and repair processes throughout the gastrointestinal tract. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the development of novel anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective drugs that exploit the beneficial activities of one or more of these gaseous mediators.

Abstract
A variety of luminal antigens, including a wide range of drugs, have been associated with the still little-known pathophysiology of microscopic colitis (MC), with variable evidence suggesting causality. This article aims to review the aspects related to drugs as potential triggers of MC; to discuss the most commonly identified associations between drugs and MC; and to analyze the limitations of the studies currently available. A literature search was performed in PubMed combining the search terms 'drug exposure', 'drug consumption', and 'risk factors' with 'microscopic colitis', 'lymphocytic colitis', and 'collagenous colitis', with no language restrictions. Reference lists of retrieved documents were also reviewed. A handful of case-control studies have demonstrated significant associations between some commonly used drugs and a higher risk of developing MC. No universally accepted criteria for establishing cause-effect relationships in adverse reactions to drugs are available, but several methods that can be applied to MC, can provide degrees of the likelihood of an association. A high probability imputation in the development of MC as a drug adverse effect has only been demonstrated for individual cases by applying chronological (challenge, de-challenge, and relapse with re-challenge) and semiological criteria. Several case-control studies have shown significant associations between exposure to drugs and MC, but the variability in their design, the reference populations used, and the definitions for drug exposure considered require specific analyses. It can be concluded that drug exposure and MC as a likely cause-effect relationship has only been described for a handful of drugs and in individual cases.

Abstract
The evaluation of a patient with chronic diarrhea can be quite frustrating, as it is expensive and involves multiple diagnostic studies. Moreover, identification of a drug as a cause of chronic diarrhea is a challenge in patients taking multiple medications. The disease may either be associated with intestinal mucosal changes, mimicking diseases such as celiac disease, or purely functional, with no histopathologic change. Drug-induced diarrhea may or may not be associated with malabsorption of nutrients, and a clinical improvement may occur within days of discontinuation of the drug, or may take longer when associated with mucosal injury. Diarrhea in diabetics, often attributed to poor management and lack of control, may be due to oral hypoglycaemic agents. Chemotherapy can result in diffuse or segmental colitis, whereas olmesartan and a few other medications infrequently induce a disease that mimics celiac disease, but is not associated with gluten intolerance. In short, increased awareness of a drug, as a cause for diarrhea and a clear understanding of the clinical manifestations will help clinicians to solve this challenging problem. This article aims to review drug-induced diarrhea to (a) understand known pathophysiological mechanisms; (b) assess the risk associated with frequently prescribed medications, and discuss the pathogenesis; and

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract consists of an enormous surface area that is optimized to efficiently absorb nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food. At the same time, it needs to provide a tight barrier against the ingress of harmful substances, and protect against a reaction to omnipresent harmless compounds. A dysfunctional intestinal barrier is associated with various diseases and disorders. In this review, the role of intestinal permeability in common disorders such as infections with intestinal pathogens, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, obesity, celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and food allergies will be discussed. In addition, the effect of the frequently prescribed drugs proton pump inhibitors and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on intestinal permeability, as well as commonly used methods to assess barrier function will be reviewed.

Abstract
Objective: Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon that is characterized by chronic, watery, nonbloody diarrhea. Concern regarding a potential association between proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) and MC has recently emerged. We sought to systematically review and summarize the evidence for the potential association between PPIs and MC. Data Sources: We systematically searched EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, and Google Scholar using the terms proton-pump inhibitors (omeprazole, lansoprazole, dexlansoprazole, rabeprazole, pantoprazole, or esomeprazole), microscopic colitis, collagenous colitis, and lymphocytic colitis. Study Selection: Full-text, English-language reports of case reports/series, observational studies, experimental studies, and systematic reviews/meta-analyses published between January 2000 to August 2016 were included. Bibliographies from pertinent publications were reviewed for additional references. Outcome was defined as the development of biopsy-confirmed MC. Data Extraction/Synthesis: A total of 19 publications were identified: 5 case control studies and 14 case reports/series (encompassing a total of 32 cases). All studies were limited by small sample sizes. Risk of MC by dose or specific PPI agent was not investigated in any of the studies. A review of the current body of evidence reveals a possible association between PPIs and MC. Conclusions: There is a need for large observational studies of high quality to examine the differential effect of specific PPIs and whether the magnitude of association is dose dependent. Given their widespread use, clinicians should routinely question whether patients are receiving unnecessary treatment with PPIs and discontinue therapy where appropriate.

Abstract
As an increase in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has been reported in Japan, and public interest in GERD has been increasing, the Japanese Society of Gastroenterology published the Evidence-based Clinical Practice Guidelines for GERD (1st edition) in 2009. Six years have passed since its publication, and there have been a large number of reports in Japan concerning the epidemiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and Barrett's esophagus during this period. By incorporating the contents of these reports, the guidelines were completely revised, and a new edition was published in October 2015. The revised edition consists of eight items: epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, internal treatment, surgical treatment, esophagitis after surgery of the upper gastrointestinal tract, extraesophageal symptoms, and Barrett's esophagus. This paper summarizes these guidelines, particularly the parts related to the treatment for GERD. In the present revision, aggressive proton pump inhibitor (PPI) maintenance therapy is recommended for severe erosive GERD, and on-demand therapy or continuous maintenance therapy is recommended for mild erosive GERD or PPI-responsive non-erosive GERD. Moreover, PPI-resistant GERD (insufficient symptomatic improvement and/or esophageal mucosal break persisting despite the administration of PPI at a standard dose for 8 weeks) is defined, and a standard-dose PPI twice a day, change in PPI, change in the PPI timing of dosing, addition of a prokinetic drug, addition of rikkunshito (traditional Japanese herbal medicine), and addition of histamine H2-receptor antagonist are recommended for its treatment. If no improvement is observed even after these treatments, pathophysiological evaluation with esophageal impedance-pH monitoring or esophageal manometry at an expert facility for diseases of the esophagus is recommended.

High risk of drug-induced microscopic colitis with concomitant use of NSAIDs and proton pump inhibitors. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2016; 43:1004-13.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic bowel disorder characterised by watery diarrhoea. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and statins have been associated with MC. However, underlying mechanisms remain unclear. AIM To study the association between exposure to these drugs and MC, with attention to time of exposure, duration, dosage and combined exposure, and to test hypotheses on underlying pharmacological mechanisms. METHODS A case-control study was conducted using the British Clinical Practice Research Datalink. MC cases (1992-2013) were matched to MC-naive controls on age, sex and GP practice. Drug exposure was stratified according to time of exposure, duration of exposure or dosage. Conditional logistic regression analysis was applied to calculate adjusted odds ratios (AORs). RESULTS In total, 1211 cases with MC were matched to 6041 controls. Mean age was 63.4 years, with 73.2% being female. Current use of NSAIDs (AOR 1.86, 95% CI 1.39-2.49), PPIs (AOR 3.37, 95% CI 2.77-4.09) or SSRIs (AOR 2.03, 95% CI 1.58-2.61) was associated with MC compared to never or past use. Continuous use for 4-12 months further increased the risk of MC. Strongest associations (fivefold increased risk) were observed for concomitant use of PPIs and NSAIDs. Statins were not associated with MC. CONCLUSIONS Current exposure to NSAIDs, PPIs or SSRIs and prolonged use for 4-12 months increased the risk of MC. Concomitant use of NSAIDs and PPIs showed the highest risk of MC. Acid suppression related dysbiosis may contribute to the PPI effect, which may be exacerbated by NSAID-related side-effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microscopic colitis shares certain common clinical manifestations with functional bowel disorders, especially diarrhoea-dominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional diarrhoea. However, the exact relationship between microscopic colitis and functional bowel disorders has not been systematically assessed. AIM To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the diagnostic overlap between functional bowel disorders and microscopic colitis. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and SCOPUS databases, as well as the abstract books of the major gastroenterology meetings, to investigate the prevalence of microscopic colitis among patients with functional bowel disorders (considering all subtypes of both disorders) and vice versa. Data were pooled with a random-effects model. RESULTS Of 227 references identified, data were collected from 26 studies and a total of 5,099 adult patients. The pooled prevalence any type of functional bowel disorders in patients who present diagnostic criteria of microscopic colitis was 39.1% (95% CI: 22.8-56.6%; I2 : 97%) and was higher for lymphocytic colitis than for collagenous colitis (40.7% vs. 28.4%, respectively; P = 0.58). The prevalence of microscopic colitis in functional bowel disorders patients was 7% (95% CI: 3.6-11.4%), reaching 9.8% (95% CI: 4.4-17.1%; I2 : 95%) in patients exhibiting diarrhoea-dominant IBS, nonsignificantly higher than microscopic colitis rates among patients with constipation-dominant IBS (1.3%) or mixed-dominant IBS (1.9%). CONCLUSIONS There is a significant overlap of symptoms between microscopic colitis and functional bowel disorders, especially in diarrhoeal subtypes. The high proportion of microscopic colitis among diarrhoea-dominant functional syndromes should serve as a call for more active diagnosis in selected patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microscopic colitis (MC) is an underdiagnosed inflammatory bowel disease. AIM To develop an evidence-based clinical practice guide on MC current concepts. METHODS Literature search was done on the Cochrane Library, EMBASE and MEDLINE electronic databases, which were consulted covering the period up until March 2015. Work groups were selected for each of the reviewed topics, with the purpose of drafting the initial statements and recommendations. They subsequently underwent a voting process based on the Delphi method. Each statement/recommendation was accompanied by the result of the vote the level of evidence, and discussion of the corresponding evidence. The grade of recommendation (GR) using the GRADE approach was established for diagnosis and treatment recommendations. RESULTS Some key statements and recommendations are: advancing age increases the risk of developing MC, mainly in females. The symptoms of MC and IBS-D may be similar. If MC is suspected, colonoscopy taking biopsies is mandatory. Treatment with oral budesonide is recommended to induce clinical remission in patients with MC. Oral mesalazine is not recommended in patients with collagenous colitis for the induction of clinical remission. The use of anti-TNF-alpha drugs (infliximab, adalimumab) is recommended for the induction of remission in severe cases of MC that fail to respond to corticosteroids or immunomodulators, as an alternative to colectomy. CONCLUSIONS This is the first consensus paper on MC based on GRADE methodology. This initiative may help physicians involved in care of these patients in taking decisions based on evidence.

Abstract
Microscopic colitis is a common cause of chronic diarrhea. It is characterized by non-bloody watery diarrhea with macroscopically normal colonic mucosa. Its specific histological characteristics confirm the diagnosis. Two distinct histological forms can be identified, namely, collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis. In collagenous colitis, a thick colonic subepithelial collagenous deposit can be observed, whereas in lymphocytic colitis, a pronounced intraepithelial lymphocytic inflammation in the absence of a thickened collagen band can be identified. Microscopic colitis occurs more frequently in elderly females and its etiology is believed to be multifactorial, although smoking and consumption of several drugs have been identified as risks factors for the development of the disease. The treatment is based on avoiding the risks factors and administration of oral budesonide.

Effect of proton-pump inhibitors on the risk of lower gastrointestinal bleeding associated with NSAIDs, aspirin, clopidogrel, and warfarin. J Gastroenterol 2015; 50:1079-86. [PMID: 25700638 DOI: 10.1007/s00535-015-1055-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2014] [Accepted: 02/10/2015] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated the effects of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) on lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) and of their interactions with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), low-dose aspirin, clopidogrel, and warfarin on LGIB risk. METHODS We prospectively studied 355 patients emergently hospitalized for LGIB and 8,221 nonbleeding patients. All patients underwent colonoscopy. Smoking, alcohol drinking, drug exposure, and the Charlson comorbidity index score were assessed before colonoscopy. Adjusted odds ratios (AOR) of LGIB were estimated. RESULTS LGIB was significantly associated with older age, higher comorbidity index, and NSAID, aspirin, clopidogrel, or warfarin use. PPI use was significantly associated with older age, male sex, being a current alcohol drinker, higher comorbidity index, and NSAID, aspirin, clopidogrel, warfarin, acetaminophen, or corticosteroid use. Multivariate analysis adjusted by the confounding factors revealed LGIB was not significantly associated with PPI use (AOR 0.87; 95 % confidence interval 0.68-1.13; p = 0.311), or specifically with omeprazole (AOR 1.18; p = 0.408), esomeprazole (AOR 0.76; p = 0.432), lansoprazole (AOR 0.93; p = 0.669), or rabeprazole (AOR 0.63; p = 0.140). In the interaction model, no significant interactions were observed between PPIs and NSAIDs (AOR 1.40; p = 0.293), aspirin (AOR 1.09; p = 0.767), clopidogrel (AOR 0.99, p = 0.985), or warfarin (AOR 1.52; p = 0.398). CONCLUSIONS This large case-control study demonstrated that PPI use did not lead to an increased risk of LGIB, regardless of the type of PPI used. Further, LGIB risk was not affected by PPI use, irrespective of concomitant therapy with NSAIDs, low-dose aspirin, clopidogrel, or warfarin.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a highly prevalent gastrointestinal disorder. Proton pump inhibitors have profoundly revolutionized the treatment of GERD. However, several areas of unmet need persist despite marked improvements in the ther-apeutic management of GERD. These include the advanced grades of erosive esophagitis, nonerosive reflux disease, main-tenance treatment of erosive esophagitis, refractory GERD, postprandial heartburn, atypical and extraesophageal manifestations of GERD, Barrett's esophagus, chronic protein pump inhibitor treatment, and post-bariatric surgery GERD. Consequently, any fu-ture development of novel therapeutic modalities for GERD (medical, endoscopic, or surgical), would likely focus on the afore-mentioned areas of unmet need.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Microscopic colitis (MC) is characterized by chronic watery diarrhea. Recently, several drugs were reported to increase the risk of MC. However, studies lacked a clear exposure definition, did not address duration relationships, and did not take important biases into account. We estimated the risk of MC during drug use. METHODS This is a population-based nested case-control study using a Dutch primary care database (1999-2013). Incident MC cases (aged ≥18 years) were matched to community-based and colonoscopy-negative controls on age, sex, and primary care practice. Drug use was assessed within 1 and 2 years before the index date. Adjusted odds ratios (OR) were calculated by conditional logistic regression. RESULTS From the source population of 1,458,410 subjects, 218 cases were matched to 15,045 community controls and 475 colonoscopy-negative controls. Current use (≤3 months) of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, low-dose aspirin, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and beta-blockers significantly increased the risk of MC compared with never use in community controls. Adjusted ORs ranged from 2.5 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.5-4.2) for ACE inhibitors to 7.3 (95% CI: 4.5-12.1) for PPIs in the year prior to the index date. After accounting for diagnostic delay, only use of NSAIDs, PPIs, low-dose aspirin, and ACE inhibitors increased the risk of MC. Compared with colonoscopy controls, only use of PPIs (OR-adjusted 10.6; 1.8-64.2) and NSAIDs (OR-adjusted 5.6; 1.2-27.0) increased the risk of MC. CONCLUSIONS NSAIDs and PPIs are associated with an increased risk of MC. The association of MC with use of the other drugs is probably explained by worsening of diarrhea/symptoms rather than increasing the risk of MC itself.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to provide an accurate estimate of the incidence rate of microscopic colitis (MC) and to assess the association between medication use and the risk of MC. METHODS We searched Medline, Embase, and Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) Web of Science up to 26 September 2014 to identify published epidemiological studies of MC. The pooled incidence rate, female-to-male incidence rate ratio, age at diagnosis, prevalence, as well as odds ratios (ORs) of MC in association with medication use were calculated using a fixed-effects model or a random-effects model. RESULTS Of the 1,972 citations retrieved, 25 studies were included. Pooled incidence rate of collagenous colitis (CC) was 4.14 (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.89-5.40) per 100,000 person-years and 4.85 (95% CI, 3.45-6.25) for lymphocytic colitis (LC). The female-to-male incidence rate ratios were 3.05 (95% CI 2.92-3.19) for CC and 1.92 (95% CI 1.53-2.31) for LC. The median age at diagnosis for CC was 64.9 (range, 57.03-72.78) years, similar to LC (median 62.18, range 53.99-70.38). Furthermore, the incidence rate of MC increased with rising age. A steadily increasing trend of incidence rate for both CC and LC was observed before 2000; however, the incidence rate since then has become stable in the United States, Sweden, and Spain. An increased risk of MC was associated with the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (OR 2.68, 95% CI 1.73-4.17 and OR 2.41, 95% CI 1.64-3.53, respectively). CONCLUSIONS MC is a common disease process. Female gender, increased age, and the use of PPIs and SSRIs are associated with a significantly increased risk of developing MC. Further work is needed to evaluate reported data from developing countries and to elucidate the biologic mechanisms behind the risk factors for MC.

Abstract
Microscopic colitis has emerged as a major cause of chronic watery non-bloody diarrhoea, particularly in elderly females. The term is used as an umbrella term to categorize a subgroup of colitides with distinct clinicopathological phenotypes and no significant endoscopic abnormalities. Lymphocytic colitis is defined by an increased number of surface intraepithelial lymphocytes, and collagenous colitis by a thickened collagen band underneath the surface epithelium. There is increased inflammation in the lamina propria, but only little or no crypt architectural distortion. Incomplete and variant forms showing less characteristic features have been reported under different names. The differential diagnosis mainly includes resolving infectious colitis and changes related to the intake of drugs such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Substantial clinical and histological overlap between lymphocytic and collagenous colitis has been described, raising the suspicion that the conditions are two histological manifestations of the same entity, possibly representing different manifestations during the disease course or different stages of disease development. In this review, we provide a practical approach for pathologists, with a focus on diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis, and discuss recent insights into the pathogenesis of disease and the relationship with classic chronic inflammatory bowel disease, i.e. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
AIM In recent years, microscopic colitis has been increasingly diagnosed. This review was carried out to evaluate demographic factors for microscopic colitis and to perform a systematic assessment of available treatment options. METHOD Relevant publications up to December 2013 were identified following searches of PubMed and Google Scholar using the key words 'microscopic colitis', 'collagenous colitis' and 'lymphocytic colitis'. Two-hundred and forty-eight articles were identified. RESULTS The term microscopic colitis includes lymphocytic colitis and collagenous colitis. Both have common clinical symptoms but are well defined histopathologically. The clinical course is usually benign, but serious complications, including death, may occur. A peak incidence from 60 to 70 years of age with a female preponderance is observed. Although most cases are idiopathic, associations with autoimmune disorders, such as coeliac disease and hypothyroidism, as well as with exposure to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and proton-pump inhibitors, have been observed. The incidence and prevalence of microscopic colitis is rising and good-quality epidemiological research is needed. Treatment is currently largely based on anecdotal evidence and on results from limited clinical trials of budesonide. Long-term follow-up of these patients is not well established. CONCLUSION The review synthesizes work on the definition of microscopic colitis and the relationship between collagenous and lymphocytic colitis. It reviews the international epidemiology and work on aetiology. In addition, it critically considers the efficacy of a range of treatments.
