Surveillance colonoscopies in IBD are meant to detect dysplasia or cancer; this report shows some solitary polyps may be benign retention polyps. Correct endoscopic removal and pathology spare patients from unnecessary...
Vitamin D deficiency was common among Albanian patients with IBD and showed a weak inverse association with disease activity in ulcerative colitis, suggesting vitamin D status may relate to symptom burden or...
This paper explores whether individualized integrative management including traditional Chinese medicine might influence outcomes in patients with biologic‑refractory, surgery‑intended acute severe ulcerative colitis — a...
Treg/Th17 balance is a central immune mechanism implicated in IBD pathogenesis; understanding how microbes, metabolites, and tissue context control that balance could inform new biomarkers and targeted therapies.
Colon-targeted delivery systems aim to concentrate drugs in the colon, which could improve effectiveness and reduce systemic side effects for IBD and colorectal cancer treatments. Understanding these approaches helps...
This review summarizes human evidence that pesticides in the diet could affect the gut microbiome and may be linked to gastrointestinal outcomes including IBD; strongest consistent signals were for organochlorine...
The work aims to predict relapse and personalize herbal maintenance dosing for UC, which matters because better risk stratification and tailored management could reduce relapses and avoid unnecessary treatment changes.
This animal study suggests date palm pollen extract reduced inflammation and tissue damage in a rat model of colitis, which could point to new lines of research into dietary supplements or natural compounds for gut...
The study identifies a gut bacterial metabolite that appears to reduce intestinal inflammation through SIRT1 stabilization and macrophage metabolic reprogramming — a potential new biological pathway relevant to Crohn’s...
Researchers are exploring a gut microbe–derived lipid (SoL A) that may reduce inflammation relevant to IBD. If development succeeds, it could point to new, microbiome-based therapeutic approaches for people with Crohn’s...
The study links a common plant compound (oxalate) to higher stool levels and worse inflammation in IBD, suggesting diet and gut handling of oxalate could affect disease activity and that microbiome-targeted strategies...
