Despite the institution of an interdisciplinary Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) centre is encouraged, how it may improve patient care is still unknown. In a 5-year period following organisation of an IBD centre, hospitalisations per patient/year decreased (0.41-0.17) and patients on biologics increased (7.7%-26.7%). Total number of hospitalisations (-18.4%) and length of hospitalisation (-29.4%) improved compared with a preceding 5-year period. These findings suggest that institution of an interdisciplinary IBD centre is associated with improved healthcare utilisation.

Risk of comorbidity of autoimmune liver disease in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: A single-center case-control study in China.
J Dig Dis
December 2024
Department of Gastroenterology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing, China.
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and the impact of comorbidity of AIH, PBC, and PSC on hospitalization burden in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Methods: Inpatients admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 2021 were included. Odds ratio (OR) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to compare the risk of AIH, PBC, and PSC between IBD and non-IBD patients.

Health Biotechnology Directorate, Bio and Emerging Technology Institute, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Electronic address:
Infectious Bursal Disease is a highly contagious, immunosuppressive viral disease of young chicks caused by the Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV). The study was carried out at the National Veterinary Institute (NVI) of Ethiopia to evaluate the competence of the DF-1 cell culture adapted vaccine strain of IBDV as a vaccine candidate. DF-1 cells at passage 27 confluent monolayer was infected with 1 ml of LC-75 vaccine strain virus by adsorption method and recorded as passage 1 (P).

Introduction: Hypoalgesic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may provide critical insights into human abdominal pain. This condition was previously associated with homozygosity for a polymorphism (rs6795970, A1073V; 1073 val/val ) related to Na v 1.8, a voltage-gated sodium channel preferentially expressed on nociceptors.

High-quality RNA is crucial in clinical diagnostics and precision medicine. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues pose a challenge due to nucleic acid fragmentation and crosslinking. In this pilot study, various commercially available techniques for extracting RNA from small FFPE samples were compared.
