Efficacy and safety of tofacitinib for chronic plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionsA comprehensive analysis revealed that tofacitinib has a positive effect on addressing skin and joint symptoms, as well as improving the quality of life for patients with chronic plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). However, the safety of the drug ’s long-term usage even requires further validation.Key Points• In 6 analyses involving a total of 1393 patients, tofacitinib exhibits positive effect on the treatment of both chronic plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA).• Although dose-based subgroup analyses have demonstrated effectiveness. Some studies indicate that the 5-mg dose (twice da...

Exploring the Link Between Ankylosing Spondylitis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: AS patients exhibit a markedly increased risk of developing IBD. These findings advocate for heightened clinical vigilance for IBD symptoms in AS patients and suggest the need for a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. Further research into the shared pathogenic pathways is needed to develop personalized treatment strategies and improve patient management.PMID:38616667 (Source: The Israel Medical Association Journal)

Exploring the molecular mechanisms and shared gene signatures between celiac disease and ulcerative colitis based on bulk RNA and single-cell sequencing: Experimental verification
In conclusion, our study elucidated that abnormal immune response could be the common pathogenesis of UC and CeD, and REG4 might be a key potential biomarker and therapeutic target for the comorbidity of these two diseases.PMID:38615385 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112059 (Source: International Immunopharmacology)

Cohabiting with ulcerative colitis patients decreases differences of gut microbiome between healthy individuals and the patients
Conclusion: Our study revealed that cohabitation with UC patients decreased differences in the gut microbiome between healthy individuals and patients. Not only was the composition and diversity of the microbiota diminished, but active pathways also showed some decline. Furthermore, Firmicutes, Faecalibacterium, and the four related pathways may be associated with the pathological state of the host rather than with human behavior.PMID:38614128 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2024.2337712 (Source: Annals of Medicine)

First ‐trimester exposure to tofacitinib in ulcerative colitis: A case report of a healthy newborn and literature review
We present a patient with ulcerative colitis on tofacitinib who had an unplanned pregnancy. Tofacitinib was ceased, switched to vedolizumab, and she gave birth to a healthy newborn at term. Case reports of reassuring outcomes provide real-world data that assists decision-making for future patients. (Source: Clinical Case Reports)

NSQIP 5-factor modified frailty index and complications after ileal anal pouch anastomosis for ulcerative colitis
CONCLUSION: IPAA for CUC is associated with high postoperative morbidity, however, the mFI-5 alone has limited utility in determining which patients are at a higher risk of complications due to frailty. These observations suggest there is a need for more relevant instruments to measure frailty in this patient cohort.PMID:38601734 | PMC:PMC11004715 | DOI:10.1016/j.sopen.2024.03.011 (Source: Anal Sci)
