Clinical predictors of thiopurine-related adverse events in Crohn's disease.

TL;DR: Thiopurine withdrawal due to adverse events is commoner in women over the age of 40 at prescription, and these findings need to be replicated in other cohorts.

Immunotherapy in inflammatory bowel disease: Novel and emerging treatments.

TL;DR: Novel therapies targeting alternative pro-inflammatory pathways like IL-12/23 axis, IL-6 pathway or Janus Kinase inhibitors; as well as others modulating anti-inflammatory signalling pathways like transforming growth factor- β1 (TGF-β1) and new emerging therapies targeting the adhesion and migration of leukocytes into the inflamed intestinal mucosa are highlighted.

How Does the Epidemiology of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Differ between East and West A Korean Perspective

TL;DR: In Asia, unlike in the West, Crohn's disease (CD) predominantly occurs in men and involves a high prevalence of perianal fistulas, and in Korean CD patients, ileocolonic involvement is predominant, whereas isolated colonic involvement is very uncommon.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis

TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.

Operating characteristics of a rank correlation test for publication bias.

TL;DR: In this paper, an adjusted rank correlation test is proposed as a technique for identifying publication bias in a meta-analysis, and its operating characteristics are evaluated via simulations, and the test statistic is a direct statistical analogue of the popular funnel-graph.
