Introduction
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can affect mental health. There is no evidence that stress is a direct cause of the disease. Most IBD patients describe an emotional impact, mainly feelings of depression and anxiety. Many questionnaires are used to assess anxiety in those patients, including SCL-90.

Aim
To investigate the correlation between mental and psychological status to disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease using 90-Item Symptom Checklist (SCL-90 R) questionnaire.

Material and methods
The study included 100 patients (50 Crohn’s disease (CD) patients – 50 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients). Detailed history taking, systemic physical examination, laboratory investigations, colonoscopy, and the SCL-90-R symptom checklist - a self-report psychometric instrument (questionnaire) for each patient.

Results
The mean age of Crohn’s disease patients was 24.2 ±3.6 years. In ulcerative colitis the mean age was 28.5 ±7.3 years. No age or gender relation could be detected with the SCL-90 score in both groups. Our study showed a direct correlation of CD disease activity (CDAI) and endoscopic activity (SES) according to the SCL-90 R questionnaire. There was direct correlation of UC disease activity (SCCAI) and endoscopic activity (UCEIS) according to the SCL-90 R questionnaire.

Conclusions
There is a direct correlation between disease activity and endoscopic activity in UC and CD according to the SCL-90 R questionnaire
