Bariatric surgery for the treatment of severe obesity has increased dramatically in recent years in the USA and parts of Western Europe. The most commonly used technique is the Roux-en Y gastric bypass (RYGBP). Several nutritional and gastrointestinal complications after bariatric surgery have been described during the last 10 years. The authors present two patients with diarrhoea and malnutrition; one after RYGBP and the other after jejunoileal bypass surgery. These patients were subsequently diagnosed with Crohn's disease.

The CT findings of extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type involving the gastrointestinal tract.
Eur Radiol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China.
Objectives: To analyze the CT imaging features of extranodal natural killer/T (NK/T)-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTCL-NT) involving the gastrointestinal tract (GI), and to compare them with those of Crohn's disease (CD) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Materials And Methods: Data were retrospectively collected from 17 patients diagnosed with GI ENKTCL-NT, 68 patients with CD, and 47 patients with DLBCL. The CT findings of ENKTCL-NT were analyzed and compared with those of CD and DLBCL.
Comparative Improvement in Health-Related Quality of Life with Advanced Therapies for Moderate-to-Severe Crohn's Disease: A Network Meta-Analysis.
Am J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Zane Cohen Centre for Digestive Diseases, Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, Sinai Health System, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Background And Aims: The comparative efficacy of advanced therapies to improve health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in Crohn's disease (CD) is unknown. We aimed to compare the impact of approved advanced therapies for moderate-to-severe CD on HR-QoL.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL from inception to December 2023.
The Role of Environmental Factors Prior to Diagnosis on the Activity and Severity of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases-Results From the Prospective Population-Based Copenhagen Inflammatory Bowel Disease Inception Cohort.
United European Gastroenterol J
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Copenhagen University Hospital - Herlev and Gentofte, Herlev, Denmark.
Background: The influence of environmental factors on the severity of early inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is unclear. Herein, we aimed to investigate the role of environmental factors in the initial phenotype, activity, and severity of IBD.
Methods: Copenhagen IBD Inception Cohort is a prospective population-based cohort of patients with newly diagnosed IBD between May 2021 and May 2023.
The diagnostic accuracy of plasma and serum calprotectin is inferior to C-reactive protein in patients with suspected Crohn's disease.
Scand J Gastroenterol

Department of Internal Medicine, Section of Gastroenterology, Esbjerg Hospital - University Hospital of Southern Denmark, Esbjerg, Denmark.
Background And Aims: Prior studies indicate that serum calprotectin (SC) and plasma calprotectin (PC) can be used as biomarkers in Crohn's disease (CD). The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of SC and PC in patients with a clinical suspicion of CD.
Method: This biobank study included patients from a prospective, blinded, multicenter study examining minimally invasive modalities for diagnosing CD.
Imaging characteristics of brain microstructure and cerebral perfusion in Crohn's disease patients with anxiety: A prospective comparative study.
World J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, The Affiliated Changzhou Second People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Changzhou Medical Center, Changzhou 213000, Jiangsu Province, China.
Background: Anxiety is a common comorbidity in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Data on the imaging characteristics of brain microstructure and cerebral perfusion in CD with anxiety are limited.
Aim: To compare the imaging characteristics of brain microstructure and cerebral perfusion among CD patients with or without anxiety and healthy individuals.
