Background: Malnutrition and subsequent alterations in body composition (BC), particularly sarcopenia, are common but not yet elucidated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); we aimed to detail the changes in BC and the characteristics of co-occurrence of malnutrition and sarcopenia in IBD patients and to investigate its effect on quality of life.
Methods: This study was a multicentre, prospective, observational study involving four tertiary referral hospitals in China. The following data were collected from consecutive IBD inpatients: demographic information, medical history, recent weight change, handgrip strength (HGS) and BC parameters by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).

Heart failure, which is a clinical syndrome characterized by the heart's inability to maintain adequate cardiac output, is known to affect various organ systems in the body due to its ischemic nature and activation of the systemic immune response, but the resultant complications specifically on the gastrointestinal tract and the liver are not well discussed and poorly understood. Gastrointestinal-related phenomena are common symptoms experienced in patients with heart failure and frequently found to increase morbidity and mortality in these populations. The relationship between the gastrointestinal tract and heart failure are strongly linked and influence each other much so that the bidirectional association of the two is oftentimes referred to as cardiointestinal syndrome.

Background: The improvement of colitis symptoms by treatment with IL-12/23 p40 neutralizing antibody should increase the muscle mass and the function of the sarcopenia phenotype.
Methods: An experimental colitis model was induced by oral administration of 2% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 7 days. During induction of colitis, IL-12/23 p40 neutralizing antibody was injected twice on Days 3 and 5.
