16S/18S metabarcoding versus culture for aetiological assessment in infectious keratitis: A prospective paired‐sample study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Infectious keratitis (IK) is a vision‐threatening condition with diverse microbial aetiologies, yet conventional culture‐based diagnostics often have limited sensitivity. We investigated whether 16S/18S rRNA amplicon‐based next‐generation sequencing (NGS) can enhance aetiological assessment when used alongside standard microbiological ...

Lowering the C‐Reactive Protein (CRP) Threshold Improves Risk Stratification in Acute Ulcerative Colitis: A Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In 503 acute UC admissions, colectomy risk was equivalent between TWC‐positive ASUC and NASUC inpatients after propensity score matching for objective disease severity and treatment exposure; lowering the CRP threshold to ≥ 12 mg/L reclassified 26% of NASUC cases as ASUC and captured 43% of those requiring colectomy within one year, improving ...

Review Article: The Impact of the Gut Microbiome on Ulcerative Colitis Pharmacotherapy

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome modulates ulcerative colitis pharmacotherapy through microbial drug metabolism, immune regulation and altered drug bioavailability. Microbial composition influences response to aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics and small molecules, while microbiome‐targeted therapies show emerging promise.

Review article: Immunosuppression in Decompensated Autoimmune Hepatitis Cirrhosis ‐ To Suppress or Not to Suppress?

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Individualized assessment identifies patients with decompensated autoimmune hepatitis cirrhosis who are likely to benefit from a time‐limited trial of immunosuppression versus those requiring immediate liver transplant evaluation. Early objective response monitoring (bilirubin, MELD‐Na and AST/ALT) guides continuation of immunosuppression, promotes ...
