The Substantial Role of Sleep, Stress, and Physical Activity in Persistent High Levels of Fatigue in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Longitudinal Trajectory Study
Distinct subgroups of IBD patients can be identified based on longitudinal fatigue trajectories. The relatively stable levels of fatigue, stress, sleep, and physical activity suggest that a one-time screening of patients on these topics may be sufficient to identify those at risk. Interventions aiming to reduce fatigue should target persistent stress, sleep problems, and low levels of physical activity.
