Bloating is a common complaint in my clinic patients. Thank you @BMoshiree for an excellent case-based talk on this @DDWMeeting! @AmerGastroAssn #DDW2026

Another rewarding week on GI service @Stanford_GI with 🌟fellows Christine McIntosh, Rishi Subrahmanyan, and MS4 @HarrisonBesser. Disimpaction was an interesting theme. The bonus of the week was trying out new scopes!

Surprising?! Is calpro equivalent to IUS for determining treatment response in Crohn’s? This study discussed by @MLongMD @EdwardLoftus2 @GuildConference suggests so.

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Seven (!) ustekunumab bio similar approved for IBD. @IBDMD @GuildConference

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Every GI needs to understand the anatomy of the stoma and its complications. Great review from @GuildConference @mregueiroMD

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Great biomarker talk from @Realcecum @GuildConference Can we use FIT testing ( plus calpro) as a noninvasive marker of mucosal healing - maybe!

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Blood test for colon cancer screening test sounds fabulous but 17% miss rate for cancer 👀. However better than no screening for those who won’t do stool test or colonoscopy.

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Provocative talk by @babudayyeh @GuildConference In treating obesity (60%US by 2030) need to modify disease not just treat surface problem
✅reduce total body adiposity
✅reduce hyperinsulinemia
✅ reduce gut inflammation

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Are you surveying for celiac disease correctly? @AmyOxentenkoMD @GuildConference walks us through how to achieve highest diagnostic yield
✅ patient eating gluten
✅ at least 6 biopsies
✅ single biopsy at a time
✅ 2 in bulb, 4 more distally

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Interesting slide from @AmyOxentenkoMD Celiac vs IBD. Clearly patients want options. Goes to show that pure diet based therapy has quality of life issues as well. @GuildConference

[Uma Mahadevan @UmaMahadevanIBD]

Throwing down the gauntlet @babudayyeh @GuildConference
✅ no Vit K or FFP for acute bleed
✅ most pts don’t need bridging for elective procedures (check with cardiology/hematology)
