Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inflammatory bowel disease is a group of chronic diseases which has seen an incredible surge of new treatment options in recent years. Several new treatments are being under scrutiny or are already under evaluation for marketing approval. Despite the availability of new therapeutic options should be welcomed, clinicians have to face unprecedented challenges in gauging which treatment is the most suitable for each patient. We still lack adequate and updated data to compare the efficacy and safety profile of most of the therapeutic options available, including in particular head-to-head RCTs, but also real-world comparative studies, new and updated meta-analyses, network meta-analyses and new or updated prognostic scores to help personalized medicine. In this special issue entitled “State-of-Art in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases”, we would like to welcome any original study or systematic/narrative review/evidence synthesis related to the above-mentioned issues.
