Core Tip |
This study demonstrated that disease activity is the main correlate of quality of life (QOL) in children with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Furthermore, several factors, that pose increased risks for impaired QOL for children with IBD, were identified. In brief, children of younger age, the early years after the diagnosis and the presence of extra-intestinal manifestations were inversely related to IMPACT-III scores. Therefore, in children with these specific features, physicians should be more vigilant in order to recognize and address issues related to their QOL promptly. |
