Fiber-free diet key to treating childhood Crohn's disease, new study finds

Research reveals how a fiber-free diet in Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN) helps treat Crohn's disease in children by affecting the intestinal pathobiont Mucispirillum schaedleri. It shows that this diet alters gut microbiota, reducing Mucispirillum's pathogenicity and aiding in managing colitis.

Charting the future of IBD treatment: From immune modulators to microRNA therapies

In a recent study published in the journal eGastroenterology, researchers delved into the latest therapeutic strategies for managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. The paper discusses emerging treatments ranging from immune-modulating drugs and biologics to novel approaches like microRNA upregulators and stem cell therapies, highlighting the need for precision medicine in IBD care.

Blood tests can detect inflammatory bowel disease years before symptoms appear

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and Aalborg University in Copenhagen have shown that changes can be detected in blood tests up to eight years before a diagnosis of Crohn's disease and up to three years before a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis.

Lack of direct comparisons prevents assessment of upadacitinib's benefit in Crohn's disease

Like several immunosuppressive biologics, the JAK inhibitor upadacitinib is also approved for the treatment of Crohn's disease. Commissioned by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA), the Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG) has now investigated in an early benefit assessment whether the drug offers an added benefit versus the appropriate comparator therapy to patients with moderate to severe active Crohn's disease who have had an inadequate response, lost response or are intolerant to conventional therapy or a biologic agent.
