Detailed Description

Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the two main types of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), clearly distinct pathophysiological entities. UC, the most common form of IBD worldwide, is a disease of the colonic mucosa only; it is less prone to complications. In contrast, CD is a transmural disease of the gastrointestinal mucosa which can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract . CD and UC should be considered systemic diseases since they are associated with clinical manifestations involving organs outside the alimentary tract. Extraintestinal manifestations involve several organs, and either precede the onset of intestinal manifestations or appear and evolve in parallel with them . Neurologic involvement associated with IBD is frequently underreported. Nevertheless, it is important to quantify the morbidity burden of clinically significant neurologic complications in IBD because early recognition and treatment of neurologic diseases are crucial for preventing major morbidity . Neurologic involvement in IBD as a subgroup of the EIMs may precede the appearance of digestive symptoms or develop after diagnosis of IBD. In addition, neurological symptoms may exacerbate during flare-ups of IBD or evolve independently from intestinal manifestations without responding to treatment provided for the underlying bowel disease.Within (IBD) literature, anxiety and depression symptoms are commonly identified to be associated with increased disease activity and reduced quality of life. Research also indicates that ongoing psychological distress can exacerbate disease activity,] and increase the risk of flare-ups and health care costs. Given this, screening and targeted treatment of neuropsychological conditions in IBD patients are crucial.
