The future of precision medicine to predict outcomes and control tissue remodeling in inflammatory bowel disease

Inflammatory bowel disease is characterised by significant interindividual heterogeneity. With a wider selection of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions available and in advanced developmental stages, a priority for the coming decade i… Continue reading

Twenty-first century trends in the global epidemiology of pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease: systematic review

The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is increasing internationally, particularly in nations with historically low rates. Previous reports of the epidemiology of pediatric-onset IBD identified a paucity of data. We systematically reviewed t… Continue reading

Inhibition of Viral Replication Reduces Transcriptionally Active Distinct Hepatitis B Virus Integrations with Implications on Host Gene Dysregulation

Hepatocellular carcinogenesis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection may arise from integration of viral DNA into the host genome. We aimed to gauge the effect of viral inhibition on transcriptionally active HBV-host integration events and explore the co… Continue reading
