Összefoglaló. A SARS-CoV-2-infekció változatos kórlefolyású, a gyermekpopulációban növekvő incidenciát mutató fertőzés. Ebben a korcsoportban a felnőttekkel szemben sokkal gyakrabban tapasztalhatók gasztroenterológiai tünetek a betegség során, 18-32%-ban jelentkezik legalább egy szimptóma. Ezek nem specifikusak, gyakran megegyezhetnek a virális enteritisek, a gyulladásos bélbetegségek vagy a vakbélgyulladás tüneteivel. A gyermekkori SARS-CoV-2-infekciónak egy viszonylag ritkán megjelenő, de súlyos, akár életveszélyes szövődménye a gyermekkori sokszervi gyulladásos szindróma (multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children, MIS-C). Ilyenkor a gastrointestinalis tünetek gyakorisága 60-100%-ra nő, sok esetben akut has benyomását keltve. A jelenlegi kutatások eredményei alapján a gyulladásos bélbeteg gyerekek az alapbetegségük miatt nincsenek nagyobb veszélynek kitéve az átlagpopulációhoz képest a COVID-19-fertőzés szempontjából. A terápiájukban alkalmazott gyógyszereik közül a nagy dózisú szteroidkezelés okoz nagyobb kockázatot a megfertőződésre, illetve ebben az esetben a súlyosabb kórlefolyásra. Az éppen remisszióban lévő gyulladásos bélbetegek fenntartó terápiájának módosítások nélküli folytatása javasolt, kiemelt figyelmet fordítva a biológiai terápiák időben történő, megszakítás nélküli alkalmazására. Törekedni kell a személyes vizitek számának csökkentésére a pandémia idején, ezek telemedicinával történő helyettesítése javasolt. A halasztható endoszkópos vizsgálatok noninvazív vizsgálómódszerekkel történő átmeneti kiváltása részesítendő előnyben a betegség aktivitásának, a terápia hatékonyságának megítélésére. A gyulladásos bélbetegségben szenvedő gyermekek COVID-19 elleni védőoltása javasolt, jelenleg minden elérhető oltóanyag alkalmazható náluk (az élő ágenst tartalmazó vakcinák ellenjavalltak). Immunmoduláns, szteroid- vagy anti-tumornekrózisfaktor (TNF)-alfa-terápia esetén az oltás lehetséges csökkent hatékonyságával kell számolni. Orv Hetil. 2022; 163(6): 214-221. Summary. The SARS-CoV-2 infection is showing high variety in the disease course, with a constantly increasing incidence among the pediatric population. In this age group, at least one gastrointestinal symptom appears in 18-32% of the cases, showing a significant difference compared to the adult population. The gastrointestinal signs of COVID-19 are not specific, can mimic the symptoms of viral enteritis, inflammatory bowel diseases or acute appendicitis. The multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rather rare, but serious complication of the pediatric COVID-19 disease: in these cases, the incidence of the gastrointestinal symptoms is increased up to 60-100%, often observed as acute abdomen. Based on recent researches, patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are shown to have the same risk in developing COVID-19 infection compared to the normal population: in their medications, the high dose steroid treatment is proved to increase the risk of infection or to make the disease course more serious. The treatment of patients with IBD should be continued without any changes (when the disease is in remission). The use of biologics should be done with special care, with more attention keeping the schedule and the continuity. It is advised to minimise the number of personal visits during the pandemic, they should be substituted with telemedicine. The postponable endoscopic examinations should be temporarily redeemed by non-invasive methods for screening the disease activity and the efficacy of the treatment. The vaccination against COVID-19 is advised in the population with IBD. All vaccines currently available are usable in this patient group (the use of vaccines containing live agents are contraindicated). In the case of patients treated with immunmodulators, steroids or anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, a possible lower efficacy can be expected after the vaccination.

Unlabelled: The gut microbiota is closely associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). Probiotics such as (CB) or (AKK) have the potential to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or colorectal cancer (CRC). However, research on the combined therapeutic effects and immunomodulatory mechanisms of CB and AKK in treating IBD or CRC has never been studied.

Background/aims: Epidemiological data on mortality in autoimmune liver diseases (AILDs) are scarce. We examined all-cause and cancer-related mortality in individuals with AILD from Sweden.
Methods: We identified 9654 individuals with AILD (3342 with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), 3751 with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), and 2561 with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC)) using national Swedish registries between 2001 and 2020.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare plasma glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) concentrations in cats with chronic enteropathies (CE) with those of healthy cats.
Methods: Nineteen client-owned cats with a histopathologic diagnosis of either idiopathic chronic enteropathy (CIE) or low-grade lymphoma and six healthy client-owned cats were enrolled in a prospective study between 2 December 2021 and 9 June 2023. Fasted and postprandial plasma GLP-2 concentrations were measured via ELISA in CE cats at the time gastrointestinal biopsies were obtained and before CE treatment.

Introduction: Chronic disease is generally known to affect dogs' quality of life (QoL) as well as being associated with increased strain on their owners. Gastrointestinal (GI) disease is a common problem in companion animal practice, yet little is known about the QoL of dogs with chronic enteropathy (CE) and how their owners and veterinarians assess it.
Methods: The aim of this study was to explore: (i) how dog owners and veterinarians observed and evaluated QoL for dogs with chronic GI disease, (ii) how having a dog with CE affected the owner's QoL, and (iii) characteristics of the communication and relationship between the dog owner and veterinarian.
