Celiac Disease and the Microbiome
Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that changes in both the composition and function of the intestinal microbiome are associated with a number of chronic inflammatory diseases including celiac disease (CD). One of the major advances in the field of

Classically described in the group of non‐cirrhotic portal hypertension, obliterative portal venopathy (OPV) causes are still unknown. Our aim is to describe the characteristics of 43 OPV patients and potential risk factors. Clinically significant portal hypertension was found in 28% of cases. The most frequent indication for liver biopsy was elevation

Chronic steroid use: An overlooked impact on patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Steroids have long been used in inducing remission of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but there is controversy about whether IBD patients should be on chronic steroids for maintenance therapy. In this retrospective study, we aim to identify the complications of chronic steroid use in patients with IBD.

Comparisons of Celiac Disease and Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity [PDF]
Celiac disease (CD) and non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) are often confused or grouped together due to their commonalities. However, this is careless behavior because there are clinically significant differences between the two diseases. Similarities

A healthcare toilet system is introduced to passively measure defecation behavior. Real‐time data on stool dropping duration, thickness, and a newly defined “eu‐tenesmus” interval show correlations with stool form and gender differences. Results from 45 defecation events reveal a promising method for comprehensive defecation analysis.
