Use of Biomarkers of Inflammation in the Differentiation of Iron Deficiency and Anaemia—Lessons from Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Diagnostics
Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia are common in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), to the detriment of the patients’ quality of life. Since ferritin, as an acute-phase protein (APP), has limited diagnostic value in IBD, concurrent assessment of ...

Ulcerative colitis [PDF]

The Lancet, 2017
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the colon, and its incidence is rising worldwide. The pathogenesis is multifactorial, involving genetic predisposition, epithelial barrier defects, dysregulated immune responses, and environmental factors.

Temporal trends in and associations with nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug prescription in adult and pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Recent inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment guidelines have recommended against NSAID use despite prevalent musculoskeletal symptoms and opioid overuse in this population. Given the discordance between changing national guidelines and potential clinical utility, we sought to assess national temporal trends in prescription NSAID and ...

Intestinal epithelial CGAS dampens inflammation by upregulating autophagy

Autophagy Reports, 2022
The pathogenesis of intestinal inflammation involves a complex network of cell signaling pathways. CGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP synthase) is a cytoplasmic DNA sensor that is most known for upregulating interferon-mediated inflammation.

Adalimumab‐Poloxamer Conjugate for Bio‐Better: Enhanced Stability and Function

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Antibody‐polymer conjugates, particularly poloxamer conjugates, enhance antibody stability by improving tolerance to physicochemical stress and attenuating proteolysis by proteases. Furthermore, the higher affinity observed with poloxamer conjugation compared to standard PEGylation results in improved therapeutic efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis mouse ...

Ulcerative Colitis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2012
Ulcerative colitis is an idiopathic, chronic inflammatory disorder of the colonic mucosa, which starts in the rectum and generally extends proximally in a continuous manner through part of, or the entire, colon; however, some patients with proctitis or left-sided colitis might have a caecal patch of inflammation.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Do Mothers Benefit from a Child-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Treatment (CBT) for Childhood Functional Abdominal Pain? A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial

Children, 2017
While the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) approaches for childhood functional abdominal pain (FAP) is well-established for child outcomes, only a few studies have reported on parent-specific outcomes.
