IgG4‐Related Disease: Emerging Roles of Novel Genetic Variants, Immune Cell Subsets and Therapeutic Targets

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgG4, the least abundant IgG subclass in humans, is increasingly recognised for its involvement in allergic and autoimmune pathologies. Its unique properties, such as the tendency to form half‐molecules (one heavy chain and one light chain) and its generally non‐inflammatory nature, distinguish it from other IgG subclasses.

To Stent or Not to Stent: Is It a Question? Routine Trans‐Cystic Stenting Does Not Reduce Biliary Anastomotic Strictures Post‐Liver Transplantation

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Biliary anastomotic stricture (BAS) occurs with variable incidence following orthotopic liver transplantation. This study aimed to assess the risk factors for BAS in a large cohort and showed that routine trans‐cystic biliary stenting had no impact on its development.

Appendectomy Is Not Associated With a Milder Clinical Course of Ulcerative Colitis: A Nationwide Danish Population‐Based Study

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Prior studies suggest a beneficial effect of appendectomy on the clinical course of UC. This nationwide population‐based cohort study finds no lower rates of UC‐related hospitalisation or in the rates of colorectal resections or treatment with biologics for UC patients with appendectomy compared to UC patients without appendectomy.

Systemic Biologics Have Similar Safety to Vedolizumab in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients Following Liver Transplantation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In liver transplant recipients with coexistent inflammatory bowel disease, incidence of infectious events observed between those exposed to ‘gut‐specific’ and ‘systemic’ biologics were similar. Biologic choice should not be influenced by concerns regarding their co‐prescription with transplant immunosuppression.
