About This Topic
For children and adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) nutrition is playing an increasingly important role in factors such as induction and maintenance of remission, pathogenesis, and the association between sub-optimal nutritional status and disease outcomes. Nutrition management and monitoring should be an integral part of IBD clinical care in order to optimise outcomes such as growth, disease activity, and disease progression. Dietary interventions through the exclusion or inclusion of specific foods, or the use of enteral feeds, have been shown to be acceptable to patients as well as effective at reducing gastrointestinal symptoms and improving non-clinical factors such as quality of life. The aim of this Special Issue is to further explore the role that nutrition and dietary management have for children and adults with IBD, and to identify future directions for clinical and research endeavours. The Special Issue will be accepting original research and reviews.
