β-Blockers and endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) have proven to be valuable methods in the prevention of rebleeding. The aim this study was compare efficacy EVL combined with nadolol versus alone as secondary prophylaxis for bleeding. Patients admitted acute bleeding were treated during emergency endoscopy or sclerotherapy received somatostatin 5 days. At that point, patients randomized receive plus alone. sessions repeated every 10 12 days until varices eradicated. Eighty cirrhosis...

There is conflicting evidence regarding the prevalence of and risk factors for metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in patients with inflammatory bowel (IBD). We aimed to determine MAFLD IBD patients.Cross-sectional, case-control study included all consecutive treated at 2 different university hospitals. Controls were subjects randomly selected from general population matched by age, sex, type diabetes status, body mass index a 1:2 ratio. was confirmed controlled attenuation...
Background: Golimumab efficacy data in ulcerative colitis (UC) are limited to anti-tumor necrosis factor a (TNF)-naive patients.The aim of this study was assess the short-term and long-term golimumab used as first, second, or third anti-TNF UC real-life clinical setting.Methods: This retrospective multicenter cohort included patients with moderate-to-severe treated golimumab.The primary endpoints were partial Mayo score response, failure-free survival, colectomy-free survival. Results:In 142...
Psoriasis induced by anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) therapy has been described as a paradoxical side effect.To determine the incidence, clinical characteristics, and management of psoriasis anti-TNF in large nationwide cohort inflammatory bowel disease patients.Patients with were identified from Spanish prospectively maintained Estudio Nacional en Enfermedad Inflamatoria Intestinal sobre Determinantes genéticos y Ambientales registry Grupo Español de Trabajo Croh Colitis Ulcerosa....
Summary Background There are limited data of ustekinumab administered according to the doses recommended in UNITI studies. Aim To assess real‐world, short‐term effectiveness refractory Crohn's disease (CD) Methods Multicentre study CD patients starting after June 2017 at recommend dose (260, 390 or 520 mg based on weight ~6 mg/kg IV week 0 and 90 subcutaneously 8). Values for Harvey‐Bradshaw Index (HBI), C‐reactive protein (CRP) faecal calprotectin (FC) were recorded baseline weeks 8 14....
Summary Background Data on the long‐term administration of ustekinumab in recommended doses are limited. Aim To assess real‐world, effectiveness refractory Crohn's disease (CD). Methods Multi‐centre study CD patients starting at dose, followed for 1 year. Values Harvey‐Bradshaw Index (HBI), endoscopic activity, C‐reactive protein (CRP), and faecal calprotectin (FC) were recorded baseline weeks 26 52. Demographic clinical data, previous treatments, adverse events (AEs) hospitalisations...
Abstract Background and Aims Clinical trials real-life studies with ustekinumab in Crohn’s disease [CD] have revealed a good efficacy safety profile. However, these data are scarcely available elderly patients. Therefore, we aim to assess the effectiveness of patients CD. Methods Elderly [>60 years old] from prospectively maintained ENEIDA registry treated due CD were included. Every patient was matched two controls under 60 age, according anti-tumour necrosis factor use smoking...
Summary Background Thiopurines are the most widely used immunosuppressants in IBD although drug‐related adverse events (AE) occur 20%‐30% of cases. Aim To evaluate safety thiopurines elderly patients Methods Cohort study including all adult ENEIDA registry who received thiopurines. Patients were grouped terms age at beginning thiopurine treatment, specifically those started over 60 years or between 18 and 50 age. Thiopurine‐related AEs registered database compared. Results Out 48 752...
Abstract Background The effectiveness of the switch to another anti–tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agent is not known. aim this study was analyze and safety treatment with a second third anti-TNF drug after intolerance or failure previous in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Methods We included patients diagnosed IBD from ENEIDA registry who received prior agent. Results A total 1122 were included. In short term, remission achieved 55% anti-TNF. incidence loss response 19% per...
