TL;DR: In a randomized trial of adults with active EoE, budesonide oral tablets were significantly more effective than placebo in inducing clinical and histologic remission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibodies to flagellin indicate reactivity to bacterial antigens in IBS patients.
TL;DR: In contrast to ASCA, PAB and p‐ANCA, antibodies against A4‐Fla2 and Fla‐X were found significantly more often in IBS patients, particularly in those with postinfectious IBS, compared to HC.
Journal ArticleDOI
