| Core Tip |
The present study explores perfusion, neurochemical and mental differences in the brain of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients compared with healthy controls. This implies that for a gastroenterologist it is important to focus, besides gastrointestinal symptoms due to inflammation, on the effects of systemic inflammation on the brain and mental status. Knowledge and understanding of these effects in CD patients may help health professionals to set up interventions to maintain CD remission and improve mental status by e.g. psychosocial interventions. |
