Procedural learning and automatization have widely been studied in behavioral psychology and typically involves a rapid improvement, followed by a plateau in performance throughout repeated training. More recently, brain imaging studies have implicated frontal-striatal brain circuits in skill learning. However, it is largely unknown whether frontal-striatal activation during skill learning and behavioral changes follow a similar learning curve pattern.

Background: We aimed to (1) analyze the applicability of the updated Selecting Therapeutic Targets in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (STRIDE-II) recommendations in real-world clinical practice, (2) identify barriers to their implementation, and (3) propose practical measures to overcome these obstacles.

Methods: This qualitative study was based on a survey, a literature review, and expert opinions. Nine inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) experts identified 7 areas likely to be controversial or potential implementation barriers in daily clinical practice: endoscopy, histology, ultrasound, quality of life, biomarkers, symptom control, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
