Objective: Introduction: The relevance of study, assessment and prediction of the life quality of patients with chronic pancreatitis to improve the provision of medical care and rehabilitation is high, since it allows to solve a number of important medical, social and economic problems of society. The aim: The aim: To study, evaluate and develop a model for the quality of life assessment in patients with chronic pancreatitis.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The primary material was the results of a sociological study of patients with chronic pancreatitis conducted by the authors - 300 questionnaires. To achieve the goal of the study, a systematic approach with the use of medical-sociological, medical-statistical, bibli-semantic methods was used.
Results: Results: The average quality of life of patients with chronic pancreatitis was 55.73 ± 0.50%, among men - 58.67 ± 0.72%, among women - 53.15 ± 0.64%. As the age-specific rate increases, the quality of life index tends to decrease from 67.53 ± 0.90% in the group of men of 18-30 years to 46.27 ± 1.47% in the group over 70 years. In female patients, 63.21 ± 1.42% to 44.64 ± 0.85%, respectively. According to the data of the correlation-regression analysis, limitations in a psychological sphere has the most significant effect on the quality of life of patients with a coefficient of pair correlation of -0.742, then come restrictions in nutrition (rxy = -0.696), restrictions in a physical sphere (rxy = -0.651) and social sphere (rxy = -0.606).
Conclusion: Conclusions: The proposed model of the quality of life assessment of a patient with chronic pancreatitis allows us to determine groups of limitations and to use it to predict the quality of life, and develop a set of measures aimed at improving the quality of life.

Introduction: Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), enhancing survival and quality of life. However, kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) are at high risk for bone disorders, particularly low bone turnover disease, which increases fracture risk. Teriparatide, an anabolic agent, may provide a beneficial treatment option for these patients.

Exploring factors associated with Kidney Disease Quality of Life in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease: the Reach-J CKD cohort study.
Clin Exp Nephrol
January 2025
Reach-J Steering Committee, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan.
Background: Although several studies have examined the Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQOL) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), the factors associated with kidney-related symptoms have not been fully explored.
Methods: This nationwide multicenter cohort study enrolled 2248 patients. To identify the factors associated with each item or the three KDQOL domains, such as burden of kidney disease, symptoms/problems of kidney disease, and impact of kidney disease on daily life, multiple regression analysis was performed using baseline data.
Role of the gut microbiome in psychological symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel diseases.
Semin Immunopathol

Department of Medicine II, Medical Faculty Mannheim, University Medical Center Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany.
The brain-gut axis constitutes the basis for the bidirectional communication between the central nervous system and the gastrointestinal tract driven by neural, hormonal, metabolic, immunological, and microbial signals. Alterations in the gut microbiome composition as observed in inflammatory bowel diseases can modulate brain function and emerging empirical evidence has indicated that interactions among the brain-gut microbiome-axis seem to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of both inflammatory bowel diseases and psychiatric disorders and their comorbidity. Yet, the immunological and molecular mechanisms underlying the co-occurrence of inflammatory bowel diseases and psychological symptoms are still poorly understood.
