Article Abstract
We herein describe a rare case of ulcerative colitis associated with unilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy. A 64-year-old woman developed severe active ulcerative colitis and was treated with prednisolone. The dose of oral prednisolone was reduced to 7.5 mg/day, following which the patient noticed slight dysphagia and a speech disturbance. She was diagnosed with unilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy, which was thought to be caused by mononeuritis. She was treated with intravenous methylprednisolone at a dose of 500 mg/day, which improved the neuropathy. When the neuropathy occurred, the patient was in a mildly active stage of ulcerative colitis. We concluded that the mononeuritis observed in the present case was likely an extraintestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis.

The prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is rising worldwide. Among various potential contributors, low dietary fiber (DF) diet habit stands out as a substantial factor in this accelerating trend. Conversely, DF supplementation inhibits the manifestation of IBD pathology and promotes inflammatory remission.

Background And Aims: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), remain heterogeneous disorders with variable response to biologics. Post-operative recurrence in CD is common despite surgery and prophylactic biotherapies. Understanding the inflammatory mediators associated with recurrence and treatment response could pave the way for personalized strategies.

Background: Few data are available on the impact of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Objective: We conducted a retrospective study using TriNetX to compare the outcomes of patients with IBD and those with concomitant IBD and PSC.
Methods: All patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), or indeterminate colitis with or without PSC were eligible.

The inhibitory effects of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum on inflammatory responses are known, but its action mechanisms in oxidative stress, immunomodulation, and intestinal homeostasis remain of interest. Accordingly, we investigated the protective effects of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum SCS2 (L. plantarum SCS2) against sodium dextran sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in mice as well as elucidated its impact on inflammation, oxidative stress, and intestinal microbiota.

Ginger, a globally cultivated spice and medicinal herb, is renowned for its health benefits and distinctive flavor. As ginger's main pungent and bioactive components, 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol share similar physicochemical properties and can be obtained by extraction from ginger or chemical synthesis. After oral ingestion, the biological fate of 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol are influenced by processes including absorption, biotransformation, distribution, and excretion.
