Tests and monitoring tools
Fecal calprotectin articles covering stool inflammation testing, flare monitoring, treatment response, and IBD research. Monitoring context emphasizes diagnosis, follow-up, disease activity, treatment response, and care decisions.

Understanding and quantifying placebo-driven endoscopic changes can improve design and interpretation of Crohn’s disease trials, which may ultimately speed development of effective therapies and clarify who benefits from...
This trial directly tests common clinical strategies for managing loss of response to ustekinumab in Crohn’s disease. The findings may change whether doctors routinely escalate to 4-weekly dosing after an IV reinduction,...
Diet-based induction options matter for children because EEN can be hard to tolerate. This study finds CDED (with partial enteral nutrition) performs similarly to EEN for inducing remission and mucosal healing in...
Noninvasive tests at 3 months after ileocecal resection (ultrasound + fecal calprotectin) may identify patients at high risk of endoscopic recurrence by 6 months. That could help avoid or target postoperative endoscopy...
This study looks at upadacitinib in people with Crohn’s disease who did not respond to anti-TNF drugs — a common and challenging clinical situation.
Early clinical data suggest PALI-2108 may affect both inflammation and fibrosis in Crohn’s disease and shows biomarker changes (like fecal calprotectin) that could matter to people monitoring disease activity.
After bowel resection, Crohn’s often returns quietly at the surgical join (anastomosis). Early, planned monitoring can detect inflammation before symptoms appear and help prevent symptomatic recurrence or repeat surgery.
Perianal abscesses or fistulas in children can be an early sign of Crohn's disease. Recognizing which kids are at higher risk helps guide follow-up and testing so diagnosis isn't delayed.
The article explains how gut bacteria may contribute to IBD and summarizes common tests and treatments people are likely to encounter. It highlights emerging microbial therapies (probiotics and FMT) that some patients...
This study suggests using both faecal calprotectin and intestinal ultrasound together can better identify patients who reach deeper, transmural healing — and those patients had lower risk of bowel-damage progression....
Fatigue is a common, often persistent symptom in Crohn’s disease even during remission. This study suggests brain structure differences may be linked to fatigue when inflammation is low, pointing to potential...
The study suggests anxiety, depression, poor sleep, and low exercise are linked with higher risk of IBD flares. That means mental health and lifestyle may be important parts of managing IBD alongside medical care.
People with Crohn's disease who have an ileostomy need reliable, noninvasive tools to monitor for postoperative small-bowel inflammation. This study suggests fecal calprotectin measured from ileostomy output may help...
New oral TYK2 inhibitor data show promise on endoscopic healing and inflammatory markers in Crohn’s disease, which is important because oral treatment options are limited. However, the trial missed its main symptom-based...
Faecal calprotectin from ileostomy output could provide a non-invasive way to detect small-bowel inflammation after surgery, helping to guide monitoring and reduce reliance on invasive tests for postoperative Crohn’s...
Cure8 found this source from onlinelibrary.wiley.com, but the page could not be read reliably yet. It is tagged for Crohn's disease, Inflammatory bowel disease, and Fecal calprotectin. Open the original article for the...
People with Crohn’s disease who have an ileostomy have limited noninvasive ways to monitor small-bowel inflammation. This study suggests measuring fecal calprotectin from ileostomy output could help detect postoperative...
This model aims to identify healthy first‑degree relatives at higher risk of developing Crohn’s disease before symptoms start, which could enable earlier monitoring or preventive strategies. The score uses simple...
