Abstract
OBJECTIVES The emergence of biologics has improved the course of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in the elderly population despite a potential higher risk of infections. We conducted a one-year, prospective, multicenter, observational study to determine the frequency of occurrence of at least one infectious event in elderly IBD patients under anti-TNF therapy compared with that in elderly patients under vedolizumab or ustekinumab therapies . METHODS All IBD patients over 65 years exposed to anti-TNF, vedolizumab or ustekinumab therapies were included. The primary endpoint was the prevalence of at least one infection during the whole one year follow-up. RESULTS Among the 207 consecutive elderly IBD patients prospectively enrolled, 113 were treated with anti-TNF and 94 with vedolizumab (n=63) or ustekinumab (n=31) (median age 71 years, 112 Crohn's disease). The Charlson index was similar between patients under anti-TNF and those under vedolizumab or ustekinumab as well as the proportion of patients under combination therapy and under concomitant steroid therapy did not differ between both both groups. The prevalence of infections was similar in patients under anti-TNF and in those under vedolizumab or ustekinumab (29% versus 28%, respectively; p=0.81). There was no difference in terms of type and severity of infection and of infection-related hospitalization rate. In multivariate regression analysis, only the Charlson comorbidity index (≥ 1) was identified as a significant and independent risk factor of infection (p=0.03). CONCLUSION Around 30 % of elderly patients with IBD under biologics experienced at least one infection during the one-year study follow-up period. The risk of occurrence of infection does not differ between anti-TNF and vedolizumab or ustekinumab therapies, and only the associated comorbidity was linked with the risk of infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Budesonide remains the backbone therapy for microscopic colitis [MC]; however, relapses are frequent, and some patients are intolerant or dependent. Anti-TNF therapy is increasingly used to treat these patients, but available evidence is still limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of anti-TNF therapy in MC patients failing budesonide. METHODS In a multicentre retrospective cohort study, budesonide-refractory, -dependent, or -intolerant MC patients treated with anti-TNF agents were included. Clinical remission was defined as fewer than three bowel movements per day, and clinical response was defined as an improvement in stool frequency of at least 50%. RESULTS Fourteen patients were included. Median age was 58.5 years, median disease duration was 25 months, and median follow-up was 29.5 months. Seven patients were treated with infliximab [IFX], and seven with adalimumab. Clinical remission without steroids at 12 weeks was reached in 5/14 [35.7%] patients; all of these received IFX. Clinical response at 12 and 52 weeks, was obtained in 9/14 [64.3%] and 7/14 [50%] patients, respectively. Five patients switched to another anti-TNF agent. When considering both first- and second-line anti-TNF therapies, 7 [50%] patients were in clinical remission at Week 52. Mild to moderate adverse events were reported in six ptients. Two patients were treated with vedolizumab, of whom one had clinical response; one patient treated with ustekinumab had no response. CONCLUSIONS This is the first multicentre cohort study showing that half of patients treated with anti-TNF therapy for MC achieved clinical remission in case of budesonide failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anti-TNFα are recommended for preventing Crohn's disease (CD) postoperative recurrence (POR) in patients with risk factors. However, few data exploring anti-TNFα efficacy in patients with preoperative anti-TNFα failure are available so far. AIMS The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of anti-TNFα with other biologics and immunosuppressants to prevent POR in this setting. METHODS Consecutive CD patients who underwent bowel resection between January 2010 and December 2019 after failure of at least one anti-TNFα were retrospectively included among three tertiary centers if they started a postoperative medical prophylaxis within the three months after index surgery. The main outcome was to compare rates of objective recurrence (endoscopic or radiological recurrence in absence of colonoscopy) between patients treated with an anti-TNFα agent or another treatment as prevention of POR. RESULTS Among the 119 patients included, 71 patients received an anti-TNFα (26 infliximab, 45 adalimumab) and 48 another treatment (18 ustekinumab, 7 vedolizumab, 20 azathioprine and 3 methotrexate) to prevent POR. Rates of objective recurrence at two years were 23.9% in patients treated with anti-TNFα and 44.9% in the others (p = 0.011). CONCLUSION Anti-TNFα remained an effective option to prevent POR for patients operated upon with previous anti-TNFα failure.

Abstract
Gut metabolites are pivotal mediators of host-microbiome interactions and provide an important window on human physiology and disease. However, current methods to monitor gut metabolites rely on heavy and expensive technologies such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). In that context, robust, fast, field-deployable, and cost-effective strategies for monitoring fecal metabolites would support large-scale functional studies and routine monitoring of metabolites biomarkers associated with pathological conditions. Living cells are an attractive option to engineer biosensors due to their ability to detect and process many environmental signals and their self-replicating nature. Here we optimized a workflow for feces processing that supports metabolite detection using bacterial biosensors. We show that simple centrifugation and filtration steps remove host microbes and support reproducible preparation of a physiological-derived media retaining important characteristics of human feces, such as matrix effects and endogenous metabolites. We measure the performance of bacterial biosensors for benzoate, lactate, anhydrotetracycline, and bile acids, and find that they are highly sensitive to fecal matrices. However, encapsulating the bacteria in hydrogel helps reduce this inhibitory effect. Sensitivity to matrix effects is biosensor-dependent but also varies between individuals, highlighting the need for case-by-case optimization for biosensors’ operation in feces. Finally, by detecting endogenous bile acids, we demonstrate that bacterial biosensors could be used for future metabolite monitoring in feces. This work lays the foundation for the optimization and use of bacterial biosensors for fecal metabolites monitoring. In the future, our method could also allow rapid pre-prototyping of engineered bacteria designed to operate in the gut, with applications to in situ diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract
Microvascular invasion (MVI) is one of the main prognostic factors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after liver transplantation (LT), but its occurrence is unpredictable before surgery. The alpha fetoprotein (AFP) model (composite score including size, number, AFP), currently used in France, defines the selection criteria for LT. This study’s aim was to evaluate the preoperative predictive value of AFP SCORE progression on MVI and overall survival during the waiting period for LT. Data regarding LT recipients for HCC from 2007 to 2015 were retrospectively collected from a single institutional database. Among 159 collected cases, 34 patients progressed according to AFP SCORE from diagnosis until LT. MVI was shown to be an independent histopathological prognostic factor according to Cox regression and competing risk analysis in our cohort. AFP SCORE progression was the only preoperative predictive factor of MVI (OR = 10.79 [2.35–49.4]; p 0.002). The 5-year overall survival in the progression and no progression groups was 63.9% vs. 86.3%, respectively (p = 0.001). Cumulative incidence of HCC recurrence was significantly different between the progression and no progression groups (Sub-HR = 4.89 [CI 2–11.98]). In selected patients, the progression of AFP SCORE during the waiting period can be a useful preoperative tool to predict MVI.

Abstract
Crohn’s disease (CD) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and the retinal microcirculation is a reflection of the systemic microcirculation. Is the retinal microcirculation altered in relation to the severity of Crohn’s disease? This cross-sectional case-controlled study was conducted in a university hospital center from November 2020 to February 2021. We prospectively included patients with moderate (biologic therapy) or severe (biologic therapy + peri-anal disease and/or digestive resection) CD and age- and sex-matched controls. Individuals with diabetes, renal disease, cardiovascular disease, ophthalmological history or poor quality images were excluded. All participants underwent OCT angiography (OCT-A) imaging (Optovue, Fremont, CA). Analysis of covariance was used. 74 CD patients (33 moderate, 41 severe) and 74 controls (66 (44.6%) men; mean (SD) age 44 (14) years) were included. Compared with the controls, the severe CD patients showed a significantly reduced mean foveal avascular zone area (p = 0.001), superficial macular capillary plexus vessel density (p = 0.009) and parafoveal thickness (p < 0.001), with no difference in mean superficial capillary flow index (p = 0.06) or deep macular capillary plexus vessel density (p = 0.67). The mean foveal avascular zone was significantly lower in the severe than the moderate CD patients (p = 0.010). OCT-A can detect alterations in retinal microcirculation in patients with severe versus moderate CD and versus age- and sex-matched controls.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION While endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) is widely used to manage ileal strictures, EBD of colorectal strictures remains poorly investigated in Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS We performed a retrospective study that included all consecutive CD patients who underwent EBD for native or anastomotic colorectal strictures in 9 tertiary centers between 1999 and 2018. Factors associated with EBD failure were also investigated by logistic regression. RESULTS Fifty-seven patients (25 women, median age: 36 years (InterQuartile Range, 31-48) were included. Among the 60 strictures, 52 (87%) were native, 39 (65%) measured < 5 cm and the most frequent location was the left colon (27%). Fifty-seven (95%) were non-passable by the scope and 35 (58%) were ulcerated. Among the 161 EBDs performed (median number of dilations per stricture: 2, IQR 1-3), technical and clinical success were achieved for 79% (n = 116/147) and 77% (n = 88/115), respectively. One perforation occurred (0.6% per EDB and 2% per patient). After a median follow-up of 4.3 years (IQR 2.0-8.4), 24 patients (42%) underwent colonic resection and 24 (42%) were asymptomatic without surgery. One colon lymphoma and one colorectal cancer were diagnosed (3.5% of patients) from endoscopic biopsies and at the time of surgery, respectively. No factor was associated with technical or clinical success. CONCLUSION EDB of CD-associated colorectal strictures is feasible, efficient and safe, with more than 40% becoming asymptomatic without surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]-disk is a 10-item self-questionnaire that is used to assess IBD-related disability. The aim of the present study was to evaluate this tool in the assessment of IBD daily-life burden. METHODS A 1-week cross-sectional study was conducted in 42 centres affiliated in France and Belgium. Patients were asked to complete the IBD-disk [best score: 0, worst score: 100] and a visual analogue scale [VAS] of IBD daily-life burden [best score: 0, worst score: 10]. Analyses included internal consistency, correlation analysis, and diagnostic performance assessment. RESULTS Among the 2011 IBD outpatients who responded to the survey [67.8% of the patients had Crohn's disease], 49.9% were in clinical remission. The IBD-disk completion rate was 73.8%. The final analysis was conducted in this population [n = 1455 patients]. The mean IBD-disk score and IBD daily-life burden VAS were 39.0 ± 23.2 and 5.2 ± 2.9, respectively. The IBD-disk score was well correlated with the IBD daily-life burden VAS [r = 0.67; p <0.001]. At an optimal IBD-disk cut-off of 40, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUROC] for high IBD daily-life burden [VAS >5] was 0.81 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.79-0.83; p <0.001). CONCLUSIONS In a large cohort of patients, the IBD-disk score was well correlated with IBD daily-life burden, and it could be used in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Telemedicine has shown promising results in the follow up of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This study compared quality of life and disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease monitored using a telemedicine platform versus standard care. METHODS In this prospective multicenter study, patients with active inflammatory bowel disease were randomized to EasyMICI-MaMICI® telemedicine platform or standard care. The main objective was to assess the efficacy of the software platform, as measured by quality of life and quality of care. Secondary outcomes were changes in the use of healthcare resources, and patient satisfaction in the MaMICI group. RESULTS Fifty-four patients were enrolled (November 2017-June 2018); 59.3% had Crohn's disease and 40.7% ulcerative colitis. Forty-two patients received biologics at inclusion. After 12 months, a significant improvement in quality of life was observed with MaMICI versus standard care, with mean (standard deviation) changes from baseline of 14.8 (11.8) vs 6.3 (9.7) in the SIBDQ scores and 18.5 (18.7) vs 2.4 (8.3) in the EuroQol 5 D-3L questionnaire scores (both p ≤ .02). Disease activity was similar in both treatment groups. Use of MaMICI slightly reduced healthcare utilization versus controls (mean gastroenterologist consultations 2.2 vs 4.1; p = .1308). Overall satisfaction with MaMICI was high (mean score 7/10), and 46.2% of remaining patients in the MaMICI group continued to use the platform until 12 months. CONCLUSION Significant improvement in quality of life and overall satisfaction with this telemedicine platform, indicates that further evaluation of EasyMICI-MaMICI in larger numbers of patients with inflammatory bowel disease is warranted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The approved maintenance regimens for ustekinumab in Crohn's disease (CD) are 90 mg every 8 or 12 weeks. Some patients will partially respond to ustekinumab or will experience a secondary loss of response. It remains poorly known if these patients may benefit from shortening the interval between injections. METHODS All patients with active CD, as defined by Harvey-Bradshaw score ≥ 4 and one objective sign of inflammation (CRP > 5 mg/L and/or fecal calprotectin > 250 µg/g and/or radiologic and/or endoscopic evidence of disease activity) who required ustekinumab dose escalation to 90mg every 4 weeks for loss of response or incomplete response to ustekinumab 90mg every 8 weeks were included in this retrospective multicenter cohort study. RESULTS One hundred patients, with a median age of 35 years (Interquartile Range (IQR), 28 - 49) and median disease duration of 12 (7 - 20) years were included. Dose intensification was performed after a median of 5.0 (2.8 - 9.0) months of ustekinumab treatment and was associated with corticosteroids and immunosuppressants in respectively 29% and 27% of cases. Short-term clinical response and clinical remission were observed in respectively 61% and 31% after a median of 2.4 (1.3 - 3.0) months. After a median follow-up of 8.2 (5.6-12.4) months, 61% of patients were still treated with ustekinumab, and 26% in steroid-free clinical remission. Among the 39 patients with colonoscopy during follow-up, 14 achieved endoscopic remission (no ulcers). At the end of follow-up, 27% of patients were hospitalized, and 19% underwent intestinal resection surgery. Adverse events were reported in 12% of patients, including five serious adverse events. CONCLUSION In this multicenter study, two-thirds of patients recaptured response following treatment intensification with ustekinumab 90 mg every 4 weeks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a lack of consensus regarding the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) after liver transplantation (LT) forprimary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). AIM To investigate the safety and effectiveness of anti-TNF therapy in patients with IBD after a LT for PSC. METHODS We reviewed the medical files of all of the IBD patients who underwent a LT for PSC and who were treated with anti-TNF therapy at 23 French liver transplantation centers between 1989 and 2012. RESULTS Eighteen patients (12 with ulcerative colitis and 6 who had Crohn's disease) were recruited at 9 LT centers. All of these patients received infliximab or adalimumab following their LT, and the median duration of their anti-TNF treatment was 10.4 months. The most frequent concomitant immunosuppressive treatment comprised a combination of tacrolimus and corticosteroids. Following anti-TNF therapy induction, a clinical response was seen in 16/18 patients (89%) and clinical remission in 10 (56%). At the end of the anti-TNF treatment or at the last follow-up examination (the median follow-up was 20.9 months), a clinical response was achieved in 12 patients (67%) and clinical remission in 7 (39%). A significant endoscopic improvement was observed in 9 out of 14 patients and a complete mucosal healing in 3 out of 14 patients (21%). Six patients experienced a severe infection. These were due to cholangitis, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, Clostridium difficile, cryptosporidiosis, or Enterococcus faecalis. Three patients developed colorectal cancer after LT, and two patients died during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Anti-TNF therapy proved to be effective for treating IBD after LT for PSC. However, as 17% of the patients developed colorectal cancer during the follow-up, colonoscopic annual surveillance is recommended after LT, as specified in the current guidelines.
