🔺Inflammation → CRC
🔺PSC→ cholangioCA
🔺SB/perianal CD → SBA & anal CA
🔺IBD→ melanoma
🔺Thiopurines→ lymphoma, urinary CA, NMSC
🔺Anti-TNF mono → low lymphoma risk
🔺Combo tx→⬆️⬆️lymphoma
💎Pearl: Relative ↑ ≠ absolute risk

Surprising?! Is calpro equivalent to IUS for determining treatment response in Crohn’s? This study discussed by @MLongMD @EdwardLoftus2 @GuildConference suggests so.

Every GI needs to understand the anatomy of the stoma and its complications. Great review from @GuildConference @mregueiroMD

Great biomarker talk from @Realcecum @GuildConference Can we use FIT testing ( plus calpro) as a noninvasive marker of mucosal healing - maybe!

Blood test for colon cancer screening test sounds fabulous but 17% miss rate for cancer 👀. However better than no screening for those who won’t do stool test or colonoscopy.

Are you surveying for celiac disease correctly? @AmyOxentenkoMD @GuildConference walks us through how to achieve highest diagnostic yield
✅ patient eating gluten
✅ at least 6 biopsies
✅ single biopsy at a time
✅ 2 in bulb, 4 more distally

Interesting slide from @AmyOxentenkoMD Celiac vs IBD. Clearly patients want options. Goes to show that pure diet based therapy has quality of life issues as well. @GuildConference

Throwing down the gauntlet @babudayyeh @GuildConference
✅ no Vit K or FFP for acute bleed
✅ most pts don’t need bridging for elective procedures (check with cardiology/hematology)

Biosimilars can and should be continued in pregnancy. Sounds obvious but ? comes up a lot! Work from @PIANOIBD by @MLongMD with a poster of distinction award from @DDWMeeting
