Aminosalicylate use Increases Corticosteroid Exposure and Decreases Biologic Durability in Pediatric Crohn's Disease.

This study suggests that using 5‑ASA drugs early in children with Crohn’s disease was common but linked to more steroid use, delayed biologic treatment, and lower biologic durability — outcomes that matter for long‑term...

Inflammatory bowel disease and risk of perineal injury in primiparous vaginal births: a retrospective cohort study

This helps people with IBD and their care teams make delivery plans: if perianal disease is not active, having IBD alone was not linked to higher perineal injury risk in first-time vaginal births in this study.

Synergistic effects of partial enteral nutrition combined with Ustekinumab in induction and maintenance therapy for Crohn's disease: Real-world experience from a multicentre cohort.

Adding partial enteral nutrition to ustekinumab was associated with better clinical, endoscopic, radiologic, and nutritional outcomes at 52 weeks in this multicentre real-world cohort of Crohn’s disease patients. This...

The Impact of Fistulizing Disease, Treatment Modalities, and Clinical Activity on Health-Related Quality of Life in Crohn's Disease.

The study indicates that active inflammation—measured by CDAI and PDAI—drives poorer quality of life in Crohn's disease more than the mere presence of fistulas. That shifts focus toward controlling inflammation to...

Ziwu-Liuzhu-guided combined external therapy promotes wound healing in postoperative perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease

Perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease causes delayed healing and high recurrence after surgery. This study suggests a specific time-guided external traditional therapy may speed wound healing, reduce inflammation, and...

Perianal Crohn Disease in a Patient With Congenital Afibrinogenemia: A Multidisciplinary Therapeutic Management Challenge.

People with IBD who also have bleeding disorders face special risks during endoscopy, surgery, and when using immunosuppressive drugs. This case shows that coordinated care and hemostatic support can allow diagnosis and...

Risk factors and fatigue in difficult-to-treat Crohn’s disease: A cross-sectional study of a Chinese cohort

Identifies features associated with the new international definition of difficult‑to‑treat Crohn’s disease and links DTT status to greater mental fatigue. Biomarker differences (IL‑5, IL‑10) may point to distinct immune...
