Cross-sectional study examines metabolite associations with paediatric IBD, suggesting biomarkers for diagnosis.

This research aims to identify associations between serum metabolites and inflammatory bowel disease in children.
Analyzed serum samples from treatment-naïve IBD patients and non-IBD controls.
Used ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry for metabolite measurement.
Applied logistic regression to assess associations with IBD while adjusting for confounding variables.
Aryl sulfate was positively associated with IBD and correlated with inflammation-related serum proteins.
Inverse associations were found with several perfluoroalkyl substances and IBD prevalence.
Specific bile acids were associated with UC, suggesting potential biomarkers for diagnosis.

Salomon et al. (2026) studied this question.
