Faecal calprotectin-based strategy for long-term monitoring of patients with Crohn's disease without or with mild endoscopic postoperative recurrence.

Background: Endoscopic evaluation 6-12 months after ileocolonic resection (ICR) in Crohn's disease (CD) is advised to assess the development of postoperative recurrence (POR) but no further recommendations are available for long-term monitoring if no POR is noticed.

Methods: Prospective, open-label, study including asymptomatic patients with CD and ICR in whom no POR was observed at the last endoscopic evaluation. Patients were followed-up for two years and ileocolonoscopy was performed by means of a faecal calprotectin (FC)-based strategy.

Persistence, Effectiveness, and Safety of Upadacitinib in Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis in Real Life: Results From a Spanish Nationwide Study (Ureal Study).

Introduction: Real-world data on the effectiveness of upadacitinib for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are limited. To assess upadacitinib persistence, effectiveness, and safety in a real-world scenario.

Methods: Retrospective multicenter study of patients with IBD who received upadacitinib before 31st December 2022 and at least 12 weeks before the recruitment date.

A Machine Learning Approach to Determine Risk Factors for Respiratory Bacterial/Fungal Coinfection in Critically Ill Patients with Influenza and SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Spanish Perspective.

: Bacterial/fungal coinfections (COIs) are associated with antibiotic overuse, poor outcomes such as prolonged ICU stay, and increased mortality. Our aim was to develop machine learning-based predictive models to identify respiratory bacterial or fungal coinfections upon ICU admission. : We conducted a secondary analysis of two prospective multicenter cohort studies with confirmed influenza A (H1N1)pdm09 and COVID-19.
