Guselkumab Vs Ustekinumab in Stricturing Crohn's Disease

This study intends to select patients with confirmed moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD) and obstructive symptoms of intestinal stenosis, who have clear evidence of lumen stenosis caused by the disease itself through radiography or endoscopy. After the informed consent of the patients, comprehensive drug therapy with Guselkumab or Ustekinumab as the mainstay was performed. The basic information and medical history of the patients were collected, and the treatment process of the patients was followed up and recorded, and the drug regimen was adjusted according to the physician's experience and judgment. At different follow-up time points, blood, feces, tissue and other specimens of patients were collected according to the situation, and gastrointestinal endoscopy, imaging examination, laboratory index examination, self-assessment of subjects' symptoms, and nutritional risk screening were performed on the patients. This study evaluated the CD disease activity, obstructive symptoms, and radiographic or endoscopic remission in patients at different follow-up time points, and comprehensively evaluated the efficacy of ustekinumab in relieving stenotic CD and its related factors.

Endoscopically Placed Lumen-Apposing Metal Stents for the Treatment of Symptomatic Intestinal Strictures in Individuals With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

This is a single-center prospective pilot study in patients with symptomatic partially obstructing intestinal strictures without severe active inflammation or penetrating complications, evaluating the use of LAMS with respect to symptom and quality of life improvement and the development of stent-related complications.
