Introduction: The modified pouchitis disease activity index (mPDAI), based on clinical symptoms and endoscopic findings, is often used to diagnose pouchitis, however validated instruments to monitor pouchitis disease activity are lacking. Our group recently proposed the “Chicago classification of pouchitis” describing 7 main endoscopic phenotypes with differing outcomes. In this study, we compared mPDAIs among phenotypes in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Methods: This is a retrospective study of IBD patients with a J pouch who underwent pouchoscopies at _____ between June 1997 and December 2019. We reviewed all available reports of pouchoscopies after ileostomy takedown and classified the pouches into 7 main phenotypes: (a) normal, (b) afferent limb (AL) involvement, (c) inlet (IL) involvement, (d) diffuse, (e) focal inflammation of the pouch body, (f) cuffitis, and (g) pouch fistulas. Pouch fistulas included pouches with any type of fistulas noted ≥6 months from ileostomy takedown. Patients who had a scope showing a single phenotype were included. We assessed mPDAI based on endoscopic findings and clinical symptoms at the clinical visit closest to the date of scope. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to assess the overall difference in mPDAIs between phenotypes. The Steel-Dwass test was used to compare mPDAIs of all pairs of groups. P values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
Results: We identified 103 IBD patients. Median mPDAI was 0 (range 0-3.0) in patients with normal pouch. Among inflammatory phenotypes, the highest median mPDAI was 4.0 (range 1.0-7.0) in cuffitis, followed by 3.0 (range 2.0-6.0) in diffuse inflammation, 2.5 (range 1.0-7.0) in inlet involvement, 2.5 (range 2.0-5.0) in AL involvement, 2.0 (range 1.0-7.0) in focal inflammation, and 1.0 (range 0-4.0) in pouch fistulas (Figure 1). Kruskal-Wallis test showed that overall difference in mPDAIs between phenotypes was significant (P < 0.001). The Steel-Dwass test revealed that mPDAI in the normal pouch was significantly lower compared with pouches with IL involvement, diffuse inflammation, focal inflammation, or cuffitis (P < 0.05).
Discussion: We demonstrated that mPDAI was lowest in patients with a normal pouch and highest in those with cuffitis. Our findings suggest that low mPDAI scores may be associated with pouch normalization and that measures of disease activity for cuffitis should be distinct from those of other inflammatory pouch phenotypes.
