TL;DR: VCE is safe, technically easier, quicker, and more comfortable test, with dysplasia detection at least as good as that of CE, overcoming many barriers to the wider adoption of CE.

TL;DR: Several key quality measures that could be adopted in clinical practice, including control of inflammation, optimal bowel preparation, ideal time allocation, training, sedation, detection and characterisation of lesions, therapeutic management of the lesions, and colonoscopic reports are identified.

TL;DR: A large cohort of patients with IBD diagnosed at early or even preclinical stages, from an older population, is analyzed, finding that new incidental diagnoses of IBD were made in 0.35% of individuals undergoing a population‐based screening colonoscopy—most were classified as ulcerative colitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A think tank of the Italian Society of Colorectal Surgery (SICCR) on the surgical treatment of inflammatory bowel disease using the Delphi method: ulcerative colitis
TL;DR: The results of a think tank of Italian colorectal surgeons concerning surgery for UC were not developed as an alternative to authoritative guidelines currently available and should be considered in order to develop strategies to improve the quality of the evidence and the application of guidelines in a clinical setting.

TL;DR: Overall, incidence appeared to be on the rise worldwide and peak incidence occurred in the second to fourth decade of life, although a modest rise was also seen in later life, and no consistent difference was seen between the sexes.

An application of hierarchical kappa-type statistics in the assessment of majority agreement among multiple observers.
TL;DR: A subset of 'observers who demonstrate a high level of interobserver agreement can be identified by using pairwise agreement statistics betweeni each observer and the internal majority standard opinion on each subject.
