Background: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are characterized by chronic immune inflammation of the mucous membrane and/or the thickness of the intestinal wall, and are also accompanied by disorders of the blood clotting system and the development of a hypercoagulation state.
Aim: To identify the frequency of thromboembolic complications (TEC) in IBD patients and to determine the influence of acquired and inherited hypercoagulation factors that contribute to the development of TEС.
Materials And Methods: The clinical status of 1,238 IBD patients who were treated in 2019 was evaluated.
Aim: To conduct comparative analysis of histological remission in patients with moderate and severe ulcerative colitis (UC), receiving biological therapy vedolizumab, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatment and combined stem cells and vedolizumab therapy.
Materials And Methods: We studied biopsies of 75 patients with total or left-sided moderate and severe ulcerative colitis, divided into groups depending on treatment. The first group of UC patients (n=29) received stem cell therapy 2 mln per kg; the second group of UC patients (n=27) received vedolizumab and the third group (n=19) MSC and vedolizumab.
Background: Anxiety and depression occur in a significant number of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The prevalence of anxiety and / or depression is 13-44.4% in patients with IBD compared to 4.

Histological remission is associated with endoscopic healing, which can be a predictor of long-term results. Biological and cellular therapy is most effective in the early stages of the disease.
