The Guidelines Project, an initiative of the Brazilian Medical Association, aims to combine information from the medical field in order to standardize producers to assist the reasoning and decision-making of doctors. The information provided through this project must be assessed and criticized by the physician responsible for the conduct that will be adopted, depending on the conditions and the clinical status of each patient.

We compared substance use disorder (SUD) prevalence among adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) hospitalizations with non-IBD controls from the 2016-2018 National Inpatient Sample, assessing correlations with demographics, socioeconomic status, geographic regions, depression, and anxiety. The primary aim focused on SUD, defined as substance abuse or dependence (: F10-F19) excluding unspecified use or remission, among hospitalizations documenting IBD (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis; : K50-51) as one admitting diagnosis (IBD-D). The prevalence of SUD among hospitalizations with and without IBD was compared.

Background: Impaired intestinal epithelial barrier has been considered to be associated with an increasing variety of gastrointestinal diseases, especially inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompassing Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). We aimed to investigate the role of Gasdermin B (GSDMB) in modulating intestinal epithelial barrier integrity and proposed a promising therapeutic strategy.

Methods: GSDMB expression was evaluated in adult CD samples by molecular biology means and single-cell transcriptomes.

The purpose of this work was to create and assess Lornoxicam (LOR) loaded Novasomes (Novas) for the efficient treatment of ulcerative colitis. The study was performed using a 2 factorial design to investigate the impact of several formulation variables. Three separate parameters were investigated: Surface Active agent (SAA) type (), LOR concentration (), and SAA: Oleic acid ratio ().

Objective: Recently, several non-conventional variants of IBD-associated dysplasia have been described; however, their prevalence in Central-Eastern Europe is unknown. We aimed to perform a retrospective pilot study by re-evaluating several IBD-associated adenocarcinoma cases to survey the incidence of adjacent non-conventional dysplasia and validate that recent North American findings may apply to a European population.

Methods: Retrospectively, 28 randomly chosen cases of IBD-associated adenocarcinomas diagnosed between 2010 and 2022 were re-evaluated.

Purpose: The albumin to fibrinogen ratio (AFR), a biomarker associated with inflammatory, nutritional, and coagulation status, and the CALLY index, a biomarker combining C-reactive protein, albumin, and lymphocyte count, have been suggested to correlate with prognosis in a variety of diseases in previous studies; however, studies of these two markers in ulcerative colitis (UC) are lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of AFR and CALLY index in UC.

Methods: The study included 109 UC patients and 126 healthy controls.
