Article Abstract
Data evaluating the presence and characteristics of mesenteric lymph nodes (LNs) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are scarce. The aim of this study is to determine the presence and characteristics of LNs in UC. The LN characteristics in computed tomography (CT), including LN dimension and attenuation, were evaluated retrospectively in 100 patients with UC (61 active and 39 inactive cases). Clinical characteristics and laboratory parameters, including CBC, biochemical analysis, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C reactive protein (CRP) were also compared. Mesenteric LNs were evident in all patients with UC. The attenuation and dimension of mesenteric LNs did not differ between active and inactive patients with UC. No correlation was found among patients with UC in terms of LN dimension, attenuation, ESR, CRP, leucocyte, and albumin (all with > 0.05). The current study suggested that inflammation results in the development of mesenteric LN in UC, similar to Crohn’s disease and other inflammatory disorders.

Background And Aims: The development of antibodies to infliximab (ATI) is a major challenge in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This real-world study aimed to identify predictors of ATI, evaluate strategies to overcome ATI, and compare the durability of continuing infliximab (IFX) versus switching to adalimumab (ADA) after ATI development.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 194 pediatric IBD patients treated with IFX from 2010 to 2024.

Purpose: This study aimed to elaborate the mechanism of cuproptosis induced by HO in ulcerative colitis (UC).
Methods: Bioinformatics based on GSE107499, GSE87466, and GSE92415 datasets was performed to screen hub genes related to cuproptosis. In vitro, cell counting kit 8 (CCK8), flow cytometry were applied for detecting cell proliferation and apoptosis.

Background: Delirium in patients with ulcerative colitis may be seen, especially in the elderly and in patients hospitalized for a long time. In children, Wernicke's encephalopathy may occur due to thiamine deficiency in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. We present a patient with ulcerative colitis who presented with delirium as the first symptom, did not respond to steroid treatment and improved with anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha treatment.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a serious inflammatory bowel disease with a significantly increasing incidence globally. Current treatment options often exhibit unstable efficacy and notable side effects, making the exploration of alternative therapies particularly important. Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn, a traditional Chinese medicine, contains various bioactive compounds, among which praeruptorin A (PA) has garnered attention for its anti-inflammatory potential.
