Tento článek prezentuje nový doporučený klinický postup zaměřený na přístup k dětskému pacientovi s přítomností (či podezřením na přítomnost) cizího tělesa v gastrointestinálním traktu (GIT). Cílem práce bylo vytvořit algoritmus, který usnadní lékařům v prvním kontaktu s pacientem po požití cizího tělesa se rychle, přesně a efektivně rozhodnout o dalším diagnosticko-terapeutickém postupu. Pro usnadnění jsou cizí tělesa rozdělena do kategorií. Jednotlivé kategorie definují, jak moc bychom měli být ve svém přístupu aktivní. Zejména se jedná o identifikaci velmi rizikových situací nebo komplikací, a tedy rozhodnutí o neodkladném endoskopickém vyšetření, případně chirurgickém zákroku. Současně lze podle tohoto doporučení vyhodnotit, který pacient naopak nemusí být vůbec hospitalizován a může být sledován ambulantně. Algoritmus je navíc zpracován do grafického formátu, aby byl snadno a rychle dostupný v běžné praxi – na oddělení nebo v ambulancích, a pomohl tak k rychlému rozhodnutí a nalezení optimálního postupu pro konkrétního pacienta.

This article presents a novel recommended clinical approach focused on managing pediatric patients with the presence (or suspected presence) of a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The objective of this work was to develop an algorithm that enables physicians at the initial point of contact with a patient who has ingested a foreign object to make rapid, accurate, and efficient decisions regarding the subsequent diagnostic and therapeutic steps. For the most effective approach, foreign bodies are categorized into different groups. These categories determine the level of clinical activity required, particularly in identifying high-risk situations or complications, thus guiding decisions on whether immediate endoscopic examination or surgical intervention is necessary. Simultaneously, this guideline allows for the assessment of patients who may not require hospitalization and can instead be monitored on an outpatient basis. Moreover, the algorithm is designed in a graphical format to be easily accessible in everyday practice – whether in hospital departments or outpatient clinics – thereby facilitating prompt decision-making and the identification of the optimal course of action for each specific patient.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to evaluate the predictors of sustainability of biologic drugs for paediatric patients with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS: The Czech National Prospective Registry of Biologic and Targeted Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (CREdIT) was used to identify the biologic treatment courses in paediatric patients with CD. Mixed-effects Cox models and propensity score analyses were employed to evaluate predictors of treatment sustainability. RESULTS: Among the 558 observations of 473 patients, 264 were treated with adalimumab (47%), 240 with infliximab (43%), 41 with ustekinumab (7%), and 13 with vedolizumab (2%). Multivariable analysis revealed higher discontinuation risk with infliximab compared to adalimumab (HR = 0.600, 95%CI 0.389-0.926), both overall and in first-line treatment (HR = 0.302, 95%CI 0.103-0.890). Infliximab versus adalimumab was associated with shorter time to escalation (HR = 0.094, 95%CI 0.043-0.203). Propensity-score analysis demonstrated lower sustainability of infliximab (HR = 0.563, 95%CI 1.159-2.725). The time since diagnosis to treatment initiation (HR = 0.852, 95%CI 0.781-0.926) was the most important predictor. Baseline immunosuppressive therapy prolonged sustainability with infliximab (HR = 2.899, 95%CI 1.311-6.410). CONCLUSIONS: Given the results suggesting shorter sustainability, the need for earlier intensification and thus higher drug exposure, and the greater need for immunosuppression with infliximab than with adalimumab, the choice of these drugs cannot be considered completely equitable. IMPACT: Our study identified predictors of sustainability of biologic treatment in paediatric patients with Crohn's disease, including adalimumab (versus infliximab), early initiation of biologic treatment, and normalised baseline haemoglobin levels. Infliximab treatment was associated with earlier intensification, higher drug exposure, and a greater need for immunosuppression. Parents and patients should be fully informed of the disadvantages of intravenous infliximab versus adalimumab during the decision-making process. This study emphasises the importance of not delaying the initiation of biologic therapy in paediatric patients with Crohn's disease.

Ustekinumab is an effective therapy for adult Crohn's disease (CD), but data in paediatric CD patients are scarce. The aim of the study was to describe the real-life effectiveness and safety of ustekinumab in paediatric CD. This is a multicentre review of children with Crohn's disease treated with ustekinumab. The aim of our study was to describe the effectiveness and safety of ustekinumab in paediatric real-life practice. This is a study of the Paediatric IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) Porto group of ESPGHAN. Corticosteroid (CS)- and exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN)-free remission, defined as weighted Paediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (wPCDAI) < 12.5, and physician global assessment (PGA) were determined at weeks 12 and 52. A total of 101 children were included at a median age of 15.4 years (IQR 12.7-17.2) with a median follow-up of 7.4 months (IQR 5.6-11.8). Ninety-nine percent had received prior anti-TNF, 63% ≥ 2 anti-TNFα therapies and 22% vedolizumab. Baseline median wPCDAI was 39 (IQR 25-57.5) (71 (70%) patients with moderate-severe activity). Weeks 12 and 52 CS- and EEN-free remission were both 40.5%. Clinical response at week 6, iv induction route and older age at onset of ustekinumab treatment were predictive factors associated with clinical remission at week 12. Seven minor adverse events probably related to ustekinumab were reported. One patient died from an unrelated cause. Conclusion: Our results suggest that ustekinumab is effective and safe in children with chronically active or refractory CD. What is Known: • Ustekinumab is an effective therapy for adult moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD). • Off-label use of ustekinumab in children is increasing especially in anti-TNF refractory CD. What is New: • Is the largest cohort of real-world use of ustekinumab in paediatric CD to date. • Clinical response at week 6, iv induction and older age at onset of ustekinumab were predictive factors associated with clinical response at week 12.

PURPOSE: Children diagnosed with Crohn's disease (CD) often undergo ileocecal resection (ICR) during childhood. Anastomotic recurrence is a frequent finding following this procedure. Data addressing the effect of the anastomosis type on disease recurrence are scarce in the pediatric population. The Kono-S anastomosis has shown promise in reducing endoscopic, clinical, and surgical recurrence rates in adults. We aimed to report our experience with Kono-S anastomosis in children, focusing on its feasibility and postoperative complications. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed pediatric CD patients who underwent ICR with Kono-S anastomosis between August 2022 and May 2023. Data on demographics, clinical characteristics, surgery, hospitalization, and follow-up including colonoscopy were collected. Complications were classified using the Clavien-Dindo classification. RESULTS: Twelve patients (7 females, 58.3%) were included. Six (50%) of the patients had the B3 luminal form of the disease (according to Paris classification). Median surgery duration was 174 (interquartile range [IQR] 161-216) minutes. Anastomosis creation took a median of 62 (IQR, 54.5-71) minutes. Median hospitalization length was 6 (IQR 4-7) days. No short- or mid-term complications were observed. Median follow-up duration was 9.5 (IQR 6.8-12) months. CONCLUSION: According to our results, Kono-S anastomosis is safe and feasible in pediatric CD patients, with no observed postoperative complications. These findings support the potential benefit of using Kono-S anastomosis as a treatment approach in children with CD.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Treatment with anti-tumour necrosis factor α antibodies [anti-TNF] changes the dysbiotic faecal bacteriome in Crohn's disease [CD]. However, it is not known whether these changes are due to decreasing mucosal inflammatory activity or whether similar bacteriome reactions might be observed in gut-healthy subjects. Therefore, we explored changes in the faecal bacteriome and metabolome upon anti-TNF administration [and therapeutic response] in children with CD and contrasted those to anti-TNF-treated children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis [JIA]. METHODS: Faecal samples collected longitudinally before and during anti-TNF therapy were analysed with regard to the bacteriome by massively parallel sequencing of the 16S rDNA [V4 region] and the faecal metabolome by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. The response to treatment by mucosal healing was assessed by the MINI index at 3 months after the treatment started. We also tested several representative gut bacterial strains for in vitro growth inhibition by infliximab. RESULTS: We analysed 530 stool samples from 121 children [CD 54, JIA 18, healthy 49]. Bacterial community composition changed on anti-TNF in CD: three members of the class Clostridia increased on anti-TNF, whereas the class Bacteroidia decreased. Among faecal metabolites, glucose and glycerol increased, whereas isoleucine and uracil decreased. Some of these changes differed by treatment response [mucosal healing] after anti-TNF. No significant changes in the bacteriome or metabolome were noted upon anti-TNF in JIA. Bacterial growth was not affected by infliximab in a disc diffusion test. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that gut mucosal healing is responsible for the bacteriome and metabolome changes observed in CD, rather than any general effect of anti-TNF.

OBJECTIVES: We prospectively compared the postvaccination immunity to messenger ribonucleic acid BNT162b2 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine of our pediatric patients over 12 years old with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to that of healthy controls and looked for predictors of its robustness. METHODS: Anti-receptor binding domain, anti-spike S2, and anti-nucleocapsid immunoglobin-G (IgG) and immunoglobin-A levels were measured in 139 pediatric patients with IBD [65 fully vaccinated (2 doses), median age 16.3, interquartile range (IQR) 15.2-17.8 years, median time from vaccination (IQR) 61.0 (42.0-80.0) days] and 1744 controls (46, 37-57 years) using microblot array. RESULTS: All IBD and control patients developed positive anti-receptor binding domain IgG antibodies at comparable titers. The proportion of observations with positive anti-spike S2 IgG was higher in patients with IBD than in controls [63% vs 21%, odds ratio 2.99 (1.51-5.90)], as was its titer [median (IQR) 485 (92-922) vs 79 [33-180] IU/mL]. Anti-receptor binding domain and anti-spike S2 IgG levels were associated with IBD status. We found an association between anti-spike S2 IgG levels and time since vaccination (β -4.85, 95% CI -7.14 to 2.71, P = 0.0001), history of SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction positivity (206.76, 95% CI 39.93-374.05, P = 0.0213), and anti-tumor necrosis factor treatment (-239.68, 95% CI -396.44-83.55, P = 0.0047). Forty-three percent of patients reported vaccination side effects (mostly mild). Forty-six percent of observations with positive anti-nucleocapsid IgG had a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with IBD produced higher levels of postvaccination anti-spike S2 antibodies than controls. Previous SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with higher production of postvaccination antibodies and anti-tumor necrosis factor treatment with lower production.

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) frequently manifest in pediatric age, but may have atypical clinical, histological and laboratory features. Their underlying immune pathophysiology is incompletely understood, rendering quick diagnosis followed by tailored therapy difficult. The tumor necrosis factor superfamily receptor CD30 has been proposed as a potential marker of ulcerative colitis (UC) and has also been associated with elevated Th2 helper T cells. METHODS: A cohort of pediatric patients with UC and Crohn's disease (CD) was evaluated for serum soluble CD30 (sCD30) using ELISA and expression of CD30 and subpopulations of Th1/Th2/Th17 lymphocytes in the gastrointestinal mucosa using flow cytometry (FCM). The dataset is supported by endoscopic and microscopic activity of the disease and basic laboratory markers of inflammation. RESULTS: The cohort consisted of 102 observations from 94 patients. sCD30 levels did not differ between patients with CD or UC. However, sCD30 levels correlated with levels of CRP, ESR, fecal calprotectin and albumin and also with clinical activity of the disease in patients with both UC and CD. FCM was not helpful in evaluation of mucosal CD30, which was lowly expressed and not associated with the diagnosis or disease activity. We show augmented Th2 and Th1/17 response in terminal ileum and right-sided colon and decreased Th1/17 response in left-sided colon of UC patients. T lymphocyte subsets were also affected by anti-TNF treatment and patients' age. CONCLUSIONS: Neither sCD30 nor mucosal CD30 expression was helpful in differentiating between UC and CD. sCD30 seems to reflect a degree of systemic inflammation and clinical activity in IBD.

BACKGROUND: Maintaining of remission early in the disease course of Crohn's disease (CD) is essential and has major impact on the future prognosis. This study aimed to identify baseline predictors to develop model allowing stratification of patients who will not benefit from long-term azathioprine (AZA) treatment and will require more intensive therapy. METHODS: This study was designed to develop clinical prediction rule using retrospective data analysis of pediatric CD patients included in prospective inception cohort. Clinical relapse was defined as necessity of re-induction of remission. Sequence of Cox models was fitted to predict risk of relapse. RESULTS: Out of 1190 CD patients from 13 European centers, 441 were included, 50.3% patients did not experience clinical relapse within 2 years of AZA treatment initiation. Median time to relapse was 2.11 (CI 1.59-2.46) years. Of all the tested parameters available at diagnosis, six were significant in multivariate analyses: C-reactive protein (p = 0.038), body mass index Z-score >0.8 SD (p = 0.002), abnormal sigmoid imaging (p = 0.039), abnormal esophageal endoscopy (p = 0.005), ileocolonic localization (p = 0.023), AZA dose in specific age category (p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS: Although the possibility of predicting relapse on AZA treatment appears limited, we developed predictive model based on six baseline parameters potentially helpful in clinical decision. IMPACT: The possibility of predicting relapse on AZA treatment appears to be possible but limited. We identified six independent predictors available at diagnosis of early AZA/6-MP treatment failure in pediatric CD patients. Using combination of these factors, a model applicable to clinical practice was created. A web-based tool, allowing estimation of individual relapse risk in pediatric CD patients on a particular therapeutic regimen, has been developed.

PURPOSE: To investigate potential early risk factors for anastomotic stricture formation and assess the predictive role of post-operative esophagrams. METHODS: A retrospective study of patients with esophageal atresia with distal fistula (EA/TEF) operated between 2011 and 2020. Fourteen predictive factors were tested for stricture development. Esophagrams were used to calculate early (SI1) and late (SI2) stricture index (SI = anastomosis diameter/upper pouch diameter). RESULTS: Of 185 patients operated for EA/TEF in the 10-year period, 169 patients met the inclusion criteria. Primary anastomosis was performed in 130 patients and delayed anastomosis in 39 patients. Stricture formed in 55 patients (33%) within 1 year from anastomosis. Four risk factors showed strong association with stricture formation in unadjusted models: long gap (p = 0.007), delayed anastomosis (p = 0.042), SI1 (p = 0.013) and SI2 (p < 0.001). A multivariate analysis showed SI1 as significantly predictive of stricture formation (p = 0.035). Cut-off values using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were 0.275 for SI1 and 0.390 for SI2. The area under the ROC curve demonstrated increasing predictiveness from SI1 (AUC 0.641) to SI2 (AUC 0.877). CONCLUSIONS: This study identified an association between long gap and delayed anastomosis with stricture formation. Early and late stricture indices were predictive of stricture formation.

OBJECTIVES: Escalation of the ustekinumab (UST) maintenance dosage was effective in adults with Crohn disease (CD), but no data are available for children. We evaluated the effectiveness and safety of dose escalation of UST in pediatric CD. METHODS: This was a retrospective multicenter study from 25 centers affiliated with the IBD Interest and Porto groups of ESPGHAN. We included children with CD who initiated UST at a standard dosing and underwent either dose escalation to intervals shorter than 8 weeks or re-induction of UST due to active disease. Demographic, clinical, laboratory, endoscopic, imaging, and safety data were collected up to 12 months of follow-up. RESULTS: Sixty-nine children were included (median age 15.8 years, interquartile range 13.8-16.9) with median disease duration of 4.3 years (2.9-6.3). Most children were biologic (98.6%)- and immunomodulator (86.8%)- experienced. Clinical response and remission were observed at 3 months after UST escalation in 46 (67%) and 29 (42%) children, respectively. The strongest predictor for clinical remission was lower weighted Pediatric Crohn Disease Activity Index (wPCDAI) at escalation ( P = 0.001). The median C-reactive protein level decreased from 14 (3-28.03) to 5 (1.1-20.5) mg/L ( P = 0.012), and the fecal calprotectin level from 1100 (500-2300) to 515 (250-1469) μg/g ( P = 0.012) 3 months post-escalation. Endoscopic and transmural healing were achieved in 3 of 19 (16%) and 2 of 15 (13%) patients, respectively. Thirteen patients (18.8%) discontinued therapy due to active disease. No serious adverse events were reported. CONCLUSIONS: Two-thirds of children with active CD responded to dose escalation of UST. Milder disease activity may predict a favorable outcome following UST dose escalation.
