About this trial

The study investigate the nutritional status and inflammatory markers and diet inflammatory index in patients with IBD and their effect on disease activity.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Nutritional Status Assessed by the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) Score.

Nutritional status is assessed using the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) tool. The scale categorizes patients from A (well-nourished) to C (severely malnourished). A higher alphabetical category (C) indicates a worse nutritional outcome.

Time frame
baseline and up to one year
2

Disease Activity Assessed by the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI)..

Disease activity in Crohn's disease patients is evaluated using the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI). The theoretical score ranges from 0 to 600. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome (greater disease severity).

Time frame
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 24
3

Disease Activity in Ulcerative Colitis.

Disease activity in ulcerative colitis patients is evaluated using the Mayo Score. The score ranges from 0 to 12. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome (greater disease severity).

Time frame
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 24

Secondary outcomes

1

Pearson Correlation Coefficient Between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) Scores and disease activity in IBD Patients.

The correlation between the inflammatory potential of the diet and Crohn's disease activity will be evaluated. Diet is assessed via the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) derived from a Food Frequency Questionnaire. The DII is a continuous scale where higher scores indicate a more pro-inflammatory diet. Disease activity is assessed via the CDAI (scale: 0-600, higher scores indicate a worse outcome).

Time frame
Baseline, Week 8, and Week 24
