Abstract
OBJECTIVE the recommendations of the Spanish Ministry of Health on vaccination in risk groups include mesalazine among the treatments with a possible negative effect on its effectiveness. However, this is not the recommendation of most experts. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of mesalazine on the humoral response to the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS VACOVEII is a Spanish, prospective, multicenter study promoted by GETECCU, which evaluates the effectiveness of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients with IBD. This study includes IBD patients who have recieved the full vaccination schedule and without previous COVID-19 infection. Seroconversion was set at 260 BAU/mL (centralized determination) and was assessed 6 months after full vaccination. In this subanalysis of the study, we compare the effectivenes of the vaccine between patients treated with mesalazine and patients without treatment. RESULTS A total of 124 patients without immunosuppressive therapy were included, of which 32 did not receive any treatment and 92 received only mesalazine. Six months after full vaccination, no significant differences are observed in the mean concentrations of IgG anti-S between both groups. In the multivariate analysis, antibody titers were independently associated with the use of mRNA vaccines and with SARS-CoV-2 infection. CONCLUSION Mesalazine does not have a negative effect on the response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in IBD patients.

Abstract
We present the case of a 34-year-old man with daily vomiting and 20% weight loss in a year. A gastroduodenoscopy was performed, noticing 2nd and 3rd duodenal portion dilatation and inflammatory involvement of the 3rd and 4th portion, causing luminal stenosis. These findings are the same than in the magnetic resonance . The biopsy proves the histological diagnosis of Crohn's disease. At the beginning the patient was treated with Prednisone, Adalimumab and Ustekinumab. After 9 months, surgery was decided because the disease was refractory to treatment and there was corticosteroid dependence. A partial resection of 3rd and 4th portion of the duodenum and the first loop of jejunum was performed, with duodenojejunal anastomosis. The patient presents good postoperative evolution and after 1 year he remained asymptomatic under treatment with Ustekinumab.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Large real-world-evidence studies are required to confirm the durability of response, effectiveness, and safety of ustekinumab in Crohn's disease (CD) patients in real-world clinical practice. METHODS A retrospective, multicentre study was conducted in Spain in patients with active CD who had received ≥1 intravenous dose of ustekinumab for ≥6 months. Primary outcome was ustekinumab retention rate; secondary outcomes were to identify predictive factors for drug retention, short-term remission (week 16), loss of response and predictive factors for short-term efficacy and loss of response, and ustekinumab safety. RESULTS A total of 463 patients were included. Mean baseline Harvey-Bradshaw Index was 8.4. A total of 447 (96.5%) patients had received prior biologic therapy, 141 (30.5%) of whom had received ≥3 agents. In addition, 35.2% received concomitant immunosuppressants, and 47.1% had ≥1 abdominal surgery. At week 16, 56% had remission, 70% had response, and 26.1% required dose escalation or intensification; of these, 24.8% did not subsequently reduce dose. After a median follow-up of 15 months, 356 (77%) patients continued treatment. The incidence rate of ustekinumab discontinuation was 18% per patient-year of follow-up. Previous intestinal surgery and concomitant steroid treatment were associated with higher risk of ustekinumab discontinuation, while a maintenance schedule every 12 weeks had a lower risk; neither concomitant immunosuppressants nor the number of previous biologics were associated with ustekinumab discontinuation risk. Fifty adverse events were reported in 39 (8.4%) patients; 4 of them were severe (2 infections, 1 malignancy, and 1 fever). CONCLUSIONS Ustekinumab is effective and safe as short- and long-term treatment in a refractory cohort of CD patients in real-world clinical practice.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion has long been the cornerstone of treatment for anemia due to GI bleeding. However, blood is not devoid of potential adverse effects, and it is also a precious resource, with limited supplies in blood banks. Nowadays, all patients should benefit from a patient blood management (PBM) program that aims to minimize blood loss, optimize hematopoiesis (mainly by using iron replacement therapy), maximize tolerance of anemia, and avoid unnecessary transfusions. Integration of PBM into healthcare management reduces patient mortality and morbidity and supports a restrictive RBC transfusion approach by reducing transfusion rates. The European Commission has outlined strategies to support hospitals with the implementation of PBM, but it is vital that these initiatives are translated into clinical practice. To help optimize management of anemia and iron deficiency in adults with acute or chronic GI bleeding, we developed a protocol under the auspices of the Spanish Association of Gastroenterology, in collaboration with healthcare professionals from 16 hospitals across Spain, including expert advice from different specialties involved in PBM strategies, such as internal medicine physicians, intensive care specialists, and hematologists. Recommendations include how to identify patients who have anemia (or iron deficiency) requiring oral/intravenous iron replacement therapy and/or RBC transfusion (using a restrictive approach to transfusion), and transfusing RBC units 1 unit at a time, with assessment of patients after each given unit (i.e., “don’t give two without review”). The advantages and limitations of oral versus intravenous iron and guidance on the safe and effective use of intravenous iron are also described. Implementation of a PBM strategy and clinical decision-making support, including early treatment of anemia with iron supplementation in patients with GI bleeding, may improve patient outcomes and lower hospital costs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Measurement of patient-perceived outcomes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) care is becoming increasingly important. A simple and validated tool exists in English for this purpose, the "IBD-Control". Our aim is to translate it into Spanish, adapt and validate it. PATIENTS AND METHODS The IBD-Control was translated into the Spanish instrument "EII-Control" and prospectively validated. Patients completed the EII-Control and other questionnaires that served as baseline comparators. The gastroenterologist performed a global assessment of the disease, calculated activity indices and recorded treatment. A subgroup of patients repeated the entire assessment at a second visit. The usefulness of IBD-Control summary scales (IBD-Control-8 and IBD-Control-VAS) was also analysed. RESULTS A total of 249 IBD patients were included (101 repeated the second visit). Psychometric standards of the test: internal consistency: Cronbach's α for EII-Control 0.83 with strong correlation between EII-Control-8 and EII-Control-EVA (r=0.5); reproducibility: intra-class correlation 0.70 for EII-Control; construct validity: moderate to strong correlations between IBD-Control, IBD-Control-8 and IBD-Control-VAS versus comparators; discriminant validity: P<.001; sensitivity to change: same response as quality of life index. Sensitivity and specificity at cut-off point 14 of 0.696 and 0.903, respectively, to determine quiescent status. CONCLUSIONS The IBD-Control is a valid instrument to measure IBD-Control from the patient's perspective in our environment and culture. Its simplicity makes it a useful tool to support care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ustekinumab, a monoclonal antibody that blocks interleukins 12/23, has proven in clinical trials its efficacy in inducing and maintaining clinical remission of Crohn's disease (CD). Its effectiveness and safety in actual clinical practice is less known and may differ from trials. OBJECTIVE To evaluate its effectiveness and safety in clinical practice (intravenous induction pattern essentially), such as induction and over the long term, in patients with CD refractory to biological treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS Multicentre retrospective analysis (6 hospitals in Aragón), which includes all patients (N=69) with CD undergoing treatment with ustekinumab (either with intravenous or subcutaneous induction), who had at least 16 weeks of follow-up. The clinical response or remission has been evaluated at weeks 16, 24, 32 and 48 using the Harvey-Bradshaw index. RESULTS A total of 69 patients have been included, mean age 42 years, 54% men. A percentage of 89.86 (95% CI [0.805, 0.949]) of the patients presented clinical improvement at week 16 (15.95% remission, 73.92% response). In the subsequent follow-up, this response has been maintained. Age (OR 0.95, P=.028) and smoking habits (OR 0.19, P=.027) have been identified by an ordinal regression model as predictors of poor treatment response while the need for biological change due to adverse effect (OR 96, P=.00017) and due to loss of secondary response (OR 7.07, P=.034) have been predictors of good response. No serious adverse effects have been reported that forced them to stop taking ustekinumab. CONCLUSION Ustekinumab is effective and safe in real clinical practice to achieve induction and maintenance of the response in patients with refractory CD. Tobacco and age have been shown to be predictors of poor response, while the indication for adverse effect to previous biological and for loss of secondary response has been shown to be predictors of good response.

Abstract
Iron is necessary for the normal development of multiple vital processes. Iron deficiency (ID) may be caused by several diseases, even by physiological situations that increase requirements for this mineral. One of its possible causes is a poor dietary iron intake, which is infrequent in developed countries, but quite common in developing areas. In these countries, dietary ID is highly prevalent and comprises a real public health problem and a challenge for health authorities. ID, with or without anemia, can cause important symptoms that are not only physical, but can also include a decreased intellectual performance. All this, together with a high prevalence, can even have negative implications for a community’s economic and social development. Treatment consists of iron supplements. Prevention of ID obviously lies in increasing the dietary intake of iron, which can be difficult in developing countries. In these regions, foods with greater iron content are scarce, and attempts are made to compensate this by fortifying staple foods with iron. The effectiveness of this strategy is endorsed by multiple studies. On the other hand, in developed countries, ID with or without anemia is nearly always associated with diseases that trigger a negative balance between iron absorption and loss. Its management will be based on the treatment of underlying diseases, as well as on oral iron supplements, although these latter are limited by their tolerance and low potency, which on occasions may compel a change to intravenous administration. Iron deficiency has a series of peculiarities in pediatric patients, in the elderly, in pregnant women, and in patients with dietary restrictions, such as celiac disease.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is often very difficult to treat. Almost ten years ago "biologic" agents were introduced in the armamentarium to control CD. Although there are many new drugs in the pipeline, only two antiTNF agents have been released to the market (infliximab and, recently, adalimumab) and probably in 2008 certolizumab will be approved. A review of available evidence suggests that the three antibodies are effective in the induction and maintenance of response, and (to a lesser extent) remission. Infliximab has been very useful in fistulizing disease, and preliminary data do suggest that adalimumab and certolizumab will be also. Cost and long-term safety limit the use of these agents in daily practice. To maximize benefits and minimize risks, good patient selection and strict adherence to Clinical Guidelines seem the key points. It has been suggested that these drugs should be used in early disease to avoid progression, but current data are very scarce to generalize this recommendation. In anycase, we think that the use of "biologics" will provoke a dramatic change in CD treatment in the next 10 years.
