UEG Week 2026 was the busiest IBD meeting I can remember. Here is what I have covered so far, all in one place.
Eight posts. Long-acting antibodies, diet, obefazimod, VERDICT, STRIDE-III, perianal Crohn's and subcut risankizumab, plus a full Substack piece on what VERDICT and STRIDE-III mean for the clinic.
Next up is combination therapy. DUET, TARGET-CD, and what I actually do in clinic.

Cada vez está peor el servicio de AT&T; tengo contratado el plan anual y el 80% del día la señal se ve así: sin servicio. Es inaceptable pagar por un servicio que no funciona.

Everyone is talking about TL1A in IBD. But should we be watching DR3 too?
Most emerging therapies are trying to neutralize the messenger, TL1A. A different strategy is emerging: block the DR3 receptor and prevent the message from being received.
Same pathway. Different strategy.
Could receptor blockade offer more durable pathway suppression? Could combinations take us further? And the biggest question for me: can targeting the TL1A–DR3 axis finally make a meaningful dent in fibrosis?
A quick look at the other side of the TL1A story. 🔬

1/ A resident asked me how to interpret the two UC guselkumab trials
Same drug (IV/SC induction). Different trial designs, denominators & clinical meaning!
QUASAR = responder re-randomization
ASTRO = randomized treat-through
✅ key lesson: before comparing numbers, understand the design
🛑RCT @AGA_CGH mod-to-sev UC - 8wk induction of VEDO+UPA vs mono-VEDO (no placebo👏)
Endoscopic remission (tough goal) 37.5% vs 15.1%‼️
Clinical remission 67% vs 40%‼️
AEs▶️7.5% vs 7%

Interesting to read about the results of the PREdiCCt study out today in @Gut_BMJ.
⭐️ Calpro results predict flares before symptoms appear
⭐️ In UC (but not Crohn's), higher meat intake doubles flare risk
⭐️ UPFs and alcohol not associated with flares

Pésima gestión de @MetLifeMx para el registro de nuevos proveedores médicos. 4 meses perdidos en un proceso donde nadie ayuda ni resuelve. No recomiendo afiliarse con ellos; su falta de soporte afecta directamente al gremio médico. 👎🏥 #AtencionAlCliente#MetLifeMexico
@MetLifeMx Mismo problema, nadie en los centros de atención ayudan. Solicitan enviar documentos e información a un correo que nunca responden. #pesimo#atencionalcliente

📢 Acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) is an emergency condition which requires fast and informed care. The first days after hospitalisation are therefore crucial 🏥
