Newer Biologic and Small-Molecule Therapies for Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Baumgart Daniel C et al. The New England journal of medicine 2021 9 (14) 1302-1315 (Posted: Sep 30, 2021 7AM)

An improved understanding of the complex pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis has led to a therapeutic strategy focused on hard end points (e.g., clinical and endoscopic remission)5 and precise molecular targeting of inflammatory cascades. Compound selection, sequencing, combination, monitoring, and adjustment are part of a continuum of decisions that take into consideration the patient’s history, the disease phenotype, coexisting conditions, the patient’s goals and preferences, disease activity, treatment efficacy, and side effects, all of which may change over time.


A molecular connection hints at how a genetic risk factor drives Crohn’s disease
S Plevy, Nature News, April 19, 2021 (Posted: Apr 21, 2021 7AM)

Mutations of the NOD2 gene are risk factors for Crohn’s disease. Many aspects of how they contribute to the condition are unknown. The discovery of cell populations that are involved suggests new therapeutic options.


Why 100,000 poop photos may bring the next big thing in fitness tracking-New crowdsourcing initiative aims to build an app that tracks users' gastrointestinal health
S Salzman, NBC News, October 28, 2019 (Posted: Oct 30, 2019 9AM)

A computer scientist is working to build the world’s largest database of human stool photos — up to 100,000 in all. The images will be used to teach an artificial intelligence to tell the difference between stool that’s consistent with good health and stool that could be evidence of gastrointestinal ailments like irritable bowel syndrome or Crohn’s disease.
