Fibrosis remains one of the greatest unmet needs in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), contributing to irreversible structural bowel damage, complications, and long-term morbidity despite advances in anti-inflammatory therapies. Many gastroenterologists and multidisciplinary gastrointestinal (GI) care teams lack confidence in recognizing …
Despite the availability of a safe and effective recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) for herpes zoster (HZ), vaccination uptake and series completion remain insufficient, leaving many at-risk individuals—particularly older adults, immunocompromised patients, and underserved populations—vulnerable to preventable disease and its impact …
What if the neuropathy in front of you isn’t what it seems? Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is the most common immune-mediated peripheral neuropathy, yet it remains widely underrecognized. Because its symptoms mimic other neuropathies, CIDP is too often misdiagnosed …
Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most consequential organ manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), occurring in approximately 40% to 60% of patients, most often within the first 5 years of diagnosis, and progressing to end-stage kidney disease in …
