Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The availability of noninvasive biomarkers for diagnosis and stratification of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) courses is lacking. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluated the accuracy of exhaled breath volatile metabolite analysis on diagnosis and stratification of patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds

Detailed Description

Background: The diagnosis and differentiation of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is challenging due to the absence of a gold standard diagnostic modality for confirmation. Exhaled breath volatile metabolite analysis focusing on diagnosis and differentiation of IBD is a promising approach. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluated the accuracy of exhaled breath volatile metabolite analysis for patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

Method: A single center, prospective study of diagnostic testing will be conducted, recruiting crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), and healthy controls (HC). The exhaled breath volatile metabolite will be analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The informations of patient's disease location, disease activity, laboratory parameters and current medications will be collected to determine the feasibility of exhaled breath volatile metabolite analysis.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Ulcerative colitis

Patients with ulcerative colitis whose diagnosis had established on clinical, endoscopic, histologic, and/or radiological criteria. Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds will be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Procedure: Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds
Acquisition of exhaled breath sample in exhaled air to be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Crohn's disease

Patients with crohn's disease whose diagnosis had established on clinical, endoscopic, histologic, and/or radiological criteria. Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds will be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Procedure: Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds
Acquisition of exhaled breath sample in exhaled air to be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Healthy control

Subject with no intestinal symptoms or no known gastrointestinal disorders. Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds will be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Procedure: Breath sampling for volatile organic compounds
Acquisition of exhaled breath sample in exhaled air to be analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
