Thank you @DDS_Journal for highlighting our work on BAS & pouchitis @AlsakarnehSaqr @FarrayeIBD ✅BAS not inferior to abx in nonresponse or early relapse (aOR=0.94, p=0.34) ✅ BAS ⬇️ recurrent pouchitis (aHR: 0.57; p<0.001) and ⬆️ time to recurrent pouchitis (p<0.001)
Alsakarneh et al retrospectively studied the response of patients with pouchitis and resulting from IBD surgery, finding that treatment with bile acid sequestrants was noninferior or possibly superior to the current standard, antibiotic treatment. bit.ly/4mUEVoz
