#AHN23 AHN Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition Proctitis symptoms (urgency, tenesmus…) can really affect UC pt QOL Gursimran Kochhar MD #Etrasimod shows efficacy in isolated #proctitis 👇🏽 💭 Can It also be an option as an add-on in pts with pan-UC in remission on a biologic except for that stubborn rectum ?

Excellent overview of JAK inhibitors by Edward Loftus #AIBD2023 ✅Highly effective even in bio-exposed ✅Rapid onset, many seeing response within 2 weeks ✅MACE risk likely negligible in pts <65, w/o CV risk factors, who are not smokers ❌ avoid use in smokers

Nayantara Coelho on management of dysplasia in IBD #AIBD ✅ random biopsies most helpful in PSC ✅ make the invisible (lesions) visible w/ dye spray chromo ✅ endoscopic management (EMR, ESD) of dysplasia when possible ✅ tailor surveillance interval to patient

Induction and post-induction serum vedolizumab were not consistently associated with biochemical normalization. Proactive TDM for vedolizumab should not be routinely incorporated in a treat to target strategy for IBD Cynthia Seow John K.
