William J. Sandborn,Erik C. Van Os,Bradley J. Zins,William J. Tremaine,Dennis C. Mays,James J. Lipsky +5 more
TL;DR: An 1800-mg intravenous loading dose of azathioprine is safe and may decrease the time to response to < or = 4 weeks in patients with Crohn's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symptomatic overlap between irritable bowel syndrome and microscopic colitis.
David Limsui,Darrell S. Pardi,Michael Camilleri,Edward V. Loftus,Patricia P. Kammer,William J. Tremaine,William J. Sandborn +6 more
TL;DR: The clinical symptom‐based criteria for irritable bowel syndrome are not specific enough to rule out the diagnosis of microscopic colitis, so patients with suspected diarrhea‐predominant irritable Bowel Dis 2006 should undergo biopsies of the colon to investigate for possible microscopiccolitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autoimmune disorders and extraintestinal manifestations in first-degree familial and sporadic inflammatory bowel disease: a case-control study.
Elena Ricart,Remo Panaccione,Edward V. Loftus,William J. Tremaine,W. Scott Harmsen,Alan R. Zinsmeister,William J. Sandborn,William J. Sandborn +7 more
TL;DR: There was a positive association between IBD status (patient vs control) versus EIM, but not AD, and a significant positive link between disease type (familial or sporadic) versus either EIM or AD was not detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequential histologic evaluations in collagenous colitis. Correlations with disease behavior and sampling strategy.
TL;DR: It is concluded that histologic resolution of collagenous colitis can occur and it is associated with loss of symptoms, and rectosigmoid biopsies underestimate the diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lymphocytic colitis: clinical features, treatment, and outcomes.
Darrell S. Pardi,Venktesh R. Ramnath,Edward V. Loftus,William J. Tremaine,William J. Sandborn +4 more
TL;DR: Lymphocytic colitis typically presents in elderly patients as chronic diarrhea, as do weight loss, fecal incontinence, and concomitant autoimmune disorders, and many empiric treatment options are used, but overall response rates are disappointing.
